Taking care of a wool carpet can be scary. However, it is an essential step to prolong the life of your Berber rug and keep its shimmering colors. Rest assured, it’s much easier than you think.
Remove dust and crumbs
Although your Moroccan carpet may seem fragile, you can vacuum it without any problem. We even recommend vacuuming it once or twice a week, in a gentle manner.
A little tip:
If you have a lot of crumbs to remove and in order not to be tempted to vacuum too hard on it and risk damaging the natural fibers of your Moroccan carpet, we advise you to turn it over. Once turned over, simply walk around on it for a few minutes. Then lift your carpet, you’ll see, it’s magic, the crumbs will be on the ground.
Removing a stain
If you have stained your cream Berber carpet, do not panic. There are several methods to remove it:
- Marseille soap: sponge your stain and then pass the Marseille soap over it with gentle and regular movements.
- White vinegar and warm water: Simply take a glass of white vinegar with a tablespoon of warm water and gently clean your multicolored Berber carpet with it.

You can also use the earth of sommière; but be careful, do not use detergents.
