Care and Maintenance of Indoor Outdoor Floor Rugs 

Follow these simple and convenient tips to care for your all-weather rugs:

• Hose Off: It is important to hose off your outdoor area rugs once or twice a month to deep clean them. You can also gently scrub it using mild detergent and a brush and rinse thoroughly with water. Let it completely dry before placing it back. 

• Spot Cleaning: If you spill or stain your indoor outdoor carpet, try to clean it immediately to prevent the spot from setting in. This would save you a lot of time and effort later. Use a mild detergent and a towel to scrub off the stain and let it air dry. 

• Sunlight Exposure: If your rug is placed in the shade, expose it to sunlight a few times during the month to avoid any mold and mildew growth. 

Choosing the Right Indoor Outdoor Space Rugs

Here's how you can choose the right outdoor area rug for your home:

• Measure Your Space

It is important to measure the space for which you are buying the rug. Too large or too small rug can make the place look off and uninviting. You should at least have a few inches of space on all four sides of the deck.

• Choose the Right Material

Depending on the purpose of your rug, choose the right material for your indoor area rugs. If you are looking for a garden rug or patio rug, choose synthetic material that can be hosed down. Jute, Sisal, and Seagrass are materials that are naturally resistant to mold and mildew for areas that get moisture. 

• Buy Easy-to-Clean Rugs

Opt for easy-to-clean rugs or weather-resistant rugs for easy care and maintenance. These options ensure your home stays stylish and functional without the hassle of frequent upkeep.
