Tip #1:
Vacuum your area rugs frequently. Keep the vacuum filter clean, and empty your vacuum cleaner bag or canister regularly. Purchase a door mat and ask guests to remove their shoes before coming in. This will prevent dust and dirt from being dispersed throughout your home.
Tip #2:
Attend to spills right away. Apply water to the area and use a microfiber cloth to blot the spill. If water alone doesn’t work, use a mixture of one part water and one part white vinegar. It is important to deal with spills quickly to prevent them from turning into stains.
Tip #3:
Never rub the stain, as this may cause it to set deeper into your area rug and damage the rug fibres. Dabbing or blotting the area with a microfiber cloth is the best method for removing spills.
