Fuzzy carpet

Eli mackewich on May 21, 2015Talk to a carpet man, but I would think if you lightly steam the carpet with like a suit steamer than the pile would fuse and stop?? Don't know but I have tried this with other wool things and the pilling stops.Helpful Reply

Annie Larson on May 22, 2015It will shed for about 3 months. This is normal. It's proof you bought a fine wool carpet and not a synthetic. I don't know of a safe way to get it to shed faster.Helpful Reply

Kathy Meador Wells on May 22, 2015I would not steam the new carpet. It will shed naturally, just keep vacuuming and after a while it will quit. My parents have wool carpet and it has been down for 40+ years. They are now in the process of looking for new carpet. Unfortunately for them, they will not be able to afford new wool carpet.Helpful Reply

Shughes on May 22, 2015Growing up, we had wool carpet in one room. I remember this well, and yes, it will stop. As a little girl, after vacuuming, I had to empty the bag before I could do the rest of the house! It's bothersome, but worth it!Helpful Reply
