Tips for a Fresher Looking Natural Fibre Rug

Owner from Curtain Clean BOP Ltd

1) Clean your rug on a regular basis.

This may seem like an obvious thing to state, but you should know that it is much easier for dirt particles to become entangled in natural fibre carpeting than it is with their synthetic counterparts. To this end, make sure to regularly vacuum your rug using the appropriate upholstery attachment. Other methods you can try is shaking the rug to remove debris, or hanging it up outside and dusting it with a tennis racket, big stick, etc.

2) Use a damp towel to remedy curled rug corners. If you have been using your natural carpeting as an area rug, especially in high traffic areas, you will sooner or later notice that its corners have started to curl. To fix this, simply dampen the curled area with an evenly spread damp towel, place some weights on top, and leave it overnight. Keep in mind that you may have to repeat this process a few more times, depending on how long your rug had its corners curled.

3) Cut sprouting fibres using shears. Since most natural fibre rugs are braided and sewn by hand, they are very prone to sprouting. This goes double for jute, which has shorter fibres. To remedy this, simply use shears to clip down the fibres that have already stuck out from the rug surface. The good news is that, with time, the fibres will “settle in” and you will no longer have to use your scissors as much.

4) Always contact a manufacturer for advice on cleaning specific stains. If you cannot identify the stain on your rug, or it needs a more thorough cleaning overall, we highly encourage you to seek out the original manufacturer for specific cleaning recommendations, since most companies treat the fibres of their natural products differently.

Hi everyone,
Hokitika has been named the most welcoming town in NZ in Booking.com's 10th annual Traveller Review Awards.
Would be keen to hear from those who live there or who have visited whether they think the town really is exceptionally friendly. What makes it a welcoming place, or otherwise? Were there any cafes, restaurants, shops or other places you received a particularly warm welcome?
Lake Tekapo and Oamaru came in second and third place respectively, followed by Cambridge, Picton, Invercargill, Martinborough, Kerikeri and Palmerston North. Would also love to hear from you if you have thoughts on these places. Please include 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you don't want it to appear in a travel article.
Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts?

Water restrictions

Philip from Maungatapu

While we are being advised by our council to restrict our watering to hand held hoses, they are running sprinklers on the parks without any restriction. Double standards if you ask me. We have to let our plants and lawns die while they glibbly pour thousands of litres onto reserves at our expense

Used irregularly for approximately 6 months when it was in our holiday home then we moved there and used consistently for 8 months (been stored in spare room since) and then discovered it was too soft for my husbands complex back and hip injuries (though we were told when bought good for injuries because of the flex gel but hubby very heavy man) I find it comfortable with my arthritis and shoulder injuries because i dont get as much pressure on them but we needed something we were both comfortable with so we have bought a new slightly firmer one. still in excellent condition, no stains and mattress protector always used. Paid $4,500 on special, was originally priced $6000 for it with base, and the mattress they said was about $4000 (we are not selling the base) msg me here or ph or txt 0211771885 negotiable p.s. we have not had covid in the house.
