Indoor and outdoor rugs are comfortable, durable, and pretty. They are created to withstand foot traffic, weather variables, spills, and others, either on a patio, porch, or even in a bustling corridor. However, even the strongest of rugs may want a little tender, love and care now and again, and the best way of keeping them clean is to use them on a regular basis.
Today, in this guide we will take you through to help you clean your indoor and outdoor rug in the most effective way, especially when you have a large eclipse stain to clean or you are performing a complete deep-cleaning. With a little care, your rug will last fresh, clean, and free of mildew right through the year.
The indoor and outdoor mats can accumulate over time:
A clean rug is not only prettier, it also contributes to the hygiene and long-term condition of the material. Regular care will also make sure that your rug will not get a musty smell or cause allergies.
Before getting into the cleaning, you will require the following:
Take the rug out of your house and shake it well to get rid of loose dirt, dust, and debris. And when it is too big to shake up by hand, tack it up on the railing and strike it with a broom handle.
Put a vacuum next to the rug on both sides to remove some embedded dirt and pet hair. When you are outdoors, it can be done with a stiff broom. The corners and edges should be observed, especially.
Use other dish soaps in moderation by mixing a small amount of mild dish soap and warm water. Wet a soft brush or cloth in the solution and blot, but do not rub or stain. Rinse them in clean water and dry them using a towel. Injured rugs will require an expert cleaner (such as stain or grease) stain remover, wine stain, and his stuff can be very stubborn. It is best to do the test on a small area first.
Put your rug on the ground on a clean surface, such as your driveway or deck. Do not wash it directly on grass or dirt, which may result in mud stains.
Combine some water and mild detergent in a bucket or spray the water using a garden hose with soap.
With the help of a garden hose, wash out all the soap from the rug. Make sure there is no residue at all since the latter will attract more dirt at a later time.
Excess water should be pushed out with a towel, mop, or squeegee. It is best not to wring the rug as through this you might tear the fibers or the backing.
The rug then should be left to dry out completely.
Sprinkle the baking soda on the area that has the spot and allow it to stay for a period of 15-30minutes and then vacuum the whole thing. An enzyme-based cleaner should be used on urine stains.
White vinegar should be used as you wash, and the rug should dry in full sun. Mildew is very easily killed by sunlight.
Periodically, such as once every couple of months or so, turn the rug to balance wear and accumulation of soil.
If you are to put away for the off-season:
