You can just buy a floor squeegee like the ones the professionals use to scrape the water out of the rug so it's not so heavy and wet.
Never vacuumed and never cleaned the back side, hmmmm
and we have white vinegar… can someone show me the part where she actually uses it?
Awesome! Thank you!
It is very an original technic to wash handmade rugs i wanna present you one of wonderful Web site where you can find wonderful moroccan rugs at cheaper price
If you're gonna add audio in between segments, make sure the volume is the same. Annoying.
What’s with the music girl.... no mam
Wouw. Pure madness. Girl use some more water, or but high pressure water tools.
U need to flood it with bukets of water snd use scrappers for 100% cleaning.
Crap and cheap
What a load of shit
Great tips...unless you live in an apartment. Renters buy rugs too. Would love for one of these UA-camrs to realize it.
yes how do you clean a carpet like this indoors? Apartment living has no outdoor space that large
Hi
Lol I lost mz shit 1:23 when that music played
tachalhit 🥰😍
hello were is the other videos I think you got it just continue vloging and making videos 🥰🥰👍🏻👍🏻
U should rinse it more with water from that pipe u only use few cups to rinse it
Hello Keira, I like the video a lot. I have a group of carpets that I sell. Please contact me
I just recently purchased a decent sized area rug from IKEA that has a knitted pattern, like the trendy chunky knitted blankets... I have no idea how to vacuum and or wash it. Any suggestions?
Erm, how did that go for you? Sounds like a nightmare to clean!! After several years of professional housekeeping there are certain things that just make me say hell no, lol. Its a dream of mine to have a seamless home, no gaps, no unnecessary crevices... Just smooth and easily cleanable 😂 and yes I'm very fun at parties, not! 🤪
Very helpful video.
If you let carpet dry for more than day it starts to smell. I would first squeeze ass much water ass possible and then try more by putting towels around it while squeezing. Then let it out in sunny and non-humid day with some fans and hot air fans if possible. Keep them several feet away depending how powerful those heated fans are.
Too much S
What about washer and dryer🙈🙈
She didn't even bloody rinse it. Doesn't look clean to me at all. Next
Would you like to speak to the manager??
honestly i bet its still full of germs
The reason this can be done in Morocco is that it's hot. Really hot. Same as river washing in Iran and Afghanistan. The sun dries the rugs really quickly - DO NOT do this if it's below 30/35 degrees Celsius you will not be able to get your rug dry and it will get mould spores and possibly rot!
How should you dry it then? Or even clean it? I just bought a beautiful wool rug.
PilotCrissy there’s tutorials on my channel 👍
Summer in the Southwest is rug cleaning season

You sound so cute ;)

I would use a watering can to wet it down.
Great video. Thanks
Me and my father brought lot of carpets from Iran , we just use vinegar spray directly and then rinse it off directly with mild pressure hose , they are more than 25 years old still look brand new
Rafat rugs sir
A suggestion, I use a high quality wool wash on my wooden rug. I dilute it well. I then use a bunched up towel to ‘roll’ the mixture into the pile. I NEVER use a brush as that can pull knots out or stretch fibres as seen here where she needs to trim some. I rinse with a gentle hose, turning the rug over about two times. I gently roll the rug up to squeeze a lot of the water out before applying a dilute mixture of fabric softener, then roll it again to squeeze out a lot of the water so I can lift it easily. Then I drape it over an outdoor table to dry in the shade. This works for me.

Fibres being longer happens a lot. It's a normal occurrence called sprouting.

Why dont u just use the water on the carpet directly from the hose??
Because she didn't want to saturate the foundation with water. She knew she wasn't going to extract the water and she knew it would be too heavy to lift and hang dry.
Hiii
Need some help please? My wife has a 100 % wool rug and our daughter spilt her slim on it!! OMG! Anything please?
Ed Tuccio would follow the video or you can spot clean, you can buy good no rinse wool washes from knitting stores or websites that are great for spot xlean
Man! The two camel carpet title was misleading! Totally not was I expected! Didn’t see two camel carpets! It was a great video for what it was meant to be though.
😂 why would you want or need a video of two camel carpets?
I don't think should be used on hooked rugs, they warn not get the burlap soaking wet. Or is this not true?
yes i from Morocco we are cleaning like this rugs

Readers; This is a good basic video, let me add to it. I have raised wool, worn wool, woven wool &tc. for longer than Kira is old, so a word from a 'wooly antique'. Whatever soap you use, Do NOT use a petroleum based product, it 'takes the life out of wool,' Kira's soap is good, but there are wool only cleaning products, NOT WOOLITE! they have changed the formula. Next, do not dilute the vinegar, it is already diluted and very weak, 10%. Use as is, or buy, if you can find it, full strength vinegar. A wash with Borax, if the rug is badly off also helps, I have a wool/cotton woven rug from the former Burma, which I have had for more than 20 years, cleaned every year this way, and I have pets, I even had our horse walk on it more than a few times, not planned, however
Harriett Anthony could you please explain step by step how you clean your 20 year old rug? With specific cleaning products? Thank you 😁
Harriett Anthony ,
Hello, I just watched this video getting a quote from a local shop for 25$ per sq foot drycleaning. Then read your comment. You seem very knowledgeable. We have a hand-woven South African carpet in deep jewel-colored stripes it Mohair wool and cotton mix 7 feet by 4.5 feet. What could you add to your comment above advising me? I am surprised the lady above did not wash the backside also. My carpet is not tufted but rather woven flat on the loom. If I use pure vinegar I would easily use a full bottle of 2L (1/2 gallon) to spray all over the surface. Thank you kindly
Harriette Anthony, your advice is invaluable!! Please, please get back to me as soon as convenient for you. I would be so grateful if I could speak with you. Mahalo and Aloha 💛

Thanks Kira. I enjoyed your video.
Remember anytime that you apply soap you have to rain said completely by leaving the soap in the rug the soap will blend with the pee pee and you will end with the pee pee soap is this is what you're looking for don't clean Oriental rug or area rug at home
