Sorry this is a really boring question DH and I are going to look at a new carpet for hall stairs and landing tomorrow

He really wants wool
I like wool BUT we had an absolute nightmare with wool carpets in our old house once moths got in and we never got rid of them. I said never again.

so wise ladies of mumsnet, what do you recommend for your hall stairs and landing carpets.

(Agree that carpets are not strictly speaking necessary at all but I am putting my foot down that I want something nice and soft underfoot especially since we got rid of all the carpets downstairs)

the carpet shop claims to sell a moth proof range of natural carpets but I wonder if it’s just a con.

I wish some advice had appeared for you.

I'm in the same position. Need carpet for stairs and landing but very concerned about moths.

We had wool many years ago and no moths however there seems to be more mention of them nowadays.

I got 80 percent wool with 20 percent synthetic for our hall stairs and landing. No moths. It’s been great so far.
We had all synthetic before and it wasn’t as hard wearing in my opinion.
