Carpet cleaning for shag rugs
While most flatweave and low to medium-pile rugs can be dealt with in the usual ways, extra high-pile and shag carpeting needs a bit of special care. Hoover gently with the floor attachment of your vacuum to avoid making the fibres frizzy or loose. A steam cleaner is also a great deep cleaning option. For small area rugs, hanging your shag rug up outside and beating it with a broom handle or wooden spoon can remove dust with ease.
Bonus: if your furniture is leaving indents in the carpet, set an ice cube in the dent and let it melt a bit. This will expand the carpet fibres and bring them back to life. Then blot away the water and fluff up the fibres to the same height as their neighbours.
