is my wool rug disintegrating into nothing?

Question

i get all these fuzz fluffs coming off my wool rug. will it eventually disintegrate into nothing?

Answer 1

Years ago, there were rugs that had fuzz fluffs and the homeowner had a special rake looking type of tool with a long handle that they scrapped across the rug after they had vacuumed it. Needless to say, this was not very popular. Perhaps you have one of those old types of rugs.

Answer 2

Depends what those fluffs are........could be natural fluff on the wool, could be broken fibers..............and that's not good. If broken fibers, could be moth damage or other insects living in the wool. Vacuum daily. Have the rug cleaned especially it has had food, animal products, or a lot of foot traffic across it.
