have looked through archives and thought id ask for some up to date experiences from anyone who replies.
i have literally just ordered 100% loop woolcarpet this morning, a beautiful rustic grey with brown bits.
i know a loop isnt going to go the distance but we are hoping max of 7- 10 years.
we have a flat head vacuum with no rotating brushed so maybe that might help? i dont know though. we are also a no shoes house.
it was very inexpensive, so a 2x2 box room, a 3.5 x4 bedroom and stairs cost us £1090.
dh was mad for it as he wanted wool for its low flammability and i wanted a 100% man because im worried about carpet moths. I said ok to the wool as long as he took the bulk of responsibility for moths if we had any.
the one i bought isnt moth treated (or if it is, doesnt say) and the only mothproof ones i saw were crucial trading carpets which came out at £2, 600.
can anyone tell me if they've had carpet months lately?
if so, was yours an 80/20 wool or 100% wool?
how do moths get inside and will we have to unhook chests of drawers (the tall ikea malm ones) from the wall to lift up and vacuum/ routinely check for moths?
what the hell will we do with free standing wardrobes?
am i just being paranoid?
thanks i anyone can help.
