This is connected to the moth thread a little further down. Our house is plagued by moths...

Anyway I would like to clean my rugs. 3 are definitely synthetic material and fairly new, one second hand and possibly wool. Is there a way to do this manually - without hiring carpet cleaner? Or if that's the only way where to get one?


Recommendations please - thanks in advance

No they are room size - quite big. Just really want to take a big sponge and do it by hand with some kind of shampoo. Guess need to look in supermarket for a suitable product


the wool one is a persian (style?) rug. I am just fed up of moths. Have no evidence they are targeting the carpets (why would they when they can have wool and cashmere) but want to eliminate possibility. Plus they could do with a clean what with the little man tracking food everywhere. I have found raisins in unlikeliest locations

    • I'd take some stool samples, keep them in the fridge, book a GPs appointment, and ask for them to be analysed. Kids are sick from time to time.  We all were.  We all are occasionally.  Unless there is a serious outbreak of a bug that can potentially hospitalise a lot of people, then public health will not get involved. For your own benefit you can always visit the cafe and check out their scores on the doors food safety rating and if they are not displaying one, question why. A few years ago there was a large e coli outbreak at the Glastonbury festival, cows graze the land and some festival goers were not being too hygienic.  A reminder to us all to wash our hands etc.  with COVID this should be second nature   
    • Probably won't be the actual ice cream, but I tend to avoid actual cones where they are handled before giving to customer....that's in general though  
    • Anyone know what the V7 local is turning into? Saw some guys painting it a teal colour last night which made me think it’s probably turning into another Truepennys haha - hopefully something more interesting
    • I agree with Sue here, but it is reasonable to raise a concern - there have been incidents of mass poisoning (from restaurants and cafes, supermarkets and food sellers such as butchers and fishmongers) where early warning (or a lack of it) has had a significant impact. But where this concern has been reasonably raised, but then discovered to be likely misplaced, it is a good thing to obfuscate the retailer identity. Of course, by removing the specificity, this might get later readers to worry that other ice-cream outlets locally were being implicated! Bit of a lose-lose situation really!
