How to Dry Clean Area Rugs Yourself

Dry Clean Rugs Yourself

For far less than it would cost to professionally dry clean your area rugs, you can clean them yourself with an all natural ingredient cleaner that is safe for synthetic, wool, sisal, jute and other natural fibers. No water is used, eliminating the potential of mold or mildew forming beneath the rug, nor worry of damage to hardwood floors. For less than $25, you can clean up to 200 square feet of medium soiled rugs. That's enough for one 10'x12' rug plus one 8'x10' rug.
