How to Clean a Sheepskin Rug

10 Tips to Clean your Sheepskin Rug

Once you have chosen a sheepskin rug, it is important to take care of it. Sheepskin rugs are extremely durable and hard wearing and with a little care and attention can be a beautiful addition to your home for many years to come.  Here are 10 tips for keeping your sheepskin rug clean and in good condition:

1. Vacuum or Hoover regularly. Vacuuming your sheepskin rug on a weekly basis will help to remove dirt, dust, and hair. Use a soft brush attachment to avoid damaging the fibers.
2. Shake out the rug regularly. Shaking out your sheepskin rug will help to remove any loose dirt and debris. Do this outdoors to avoid tracking dirt into your home.
3. Spot clean any spills or stains immediately. To spot clean a sheepskin rug, use a clean, damp cloth to blot the area. Do not rub, as this can damage the fibers. You can also use a mild detergent diluted in water but be sure to test it in an inconspicuous area first to make sure it does not discolor the rug.
4. If your sheepskin rug is very dirty, you can wash it by hand. Fill a sink or bathtub with cool water and add a mild detergent. Soak the rug for 30 minutes, then rinse it thoroughly with cool water. Be sure to wring out as much water as possible before laying it flat to dry.
5. Do not machine wash your sheepskin rug. The agitation of the washing machine can damage the fibers.
6. Do not dry clean your sheepskin rug. The chemicals used in dry cleaning can damage the fibers.
7. Do not expose your sheepskin rug to direct sunlight. Direct sunlight can fade the color of the rug.
8. Do not store your sheepskin rug in a damp or humid environment. This can cause the rug to mildew.
9. Brush your sheepskin rug regularly. This will help to keep the fibers looking healthy and prevent them from matting.
10. Air out: Air out your sheepskin rug regularly to prevent it from getting musty.

If you look after your sheepskin rug carefully, you may never need to wash it. However, inevitably, accidents do happen! So, if the damage goes beyond spot cleaning and you do need to give it a full wash. A hand wash is preferable or with a machine wash, use a low temperature wool wash programme with lukewarm water.
