The answer to that is a little more complicated.
Firstly, when someone invests good money in quality furnishings such as a wool carpet. They will want to look after it and get their money’s worth from it.
They will research the best way to have it cleaned and they want to know who is their certified Woolsafe service provider in Doncaster and the surrounding area.
The company they brought the carpet from will have told them about Woolsafe.
Furthermore, they will have been told about the guarantee being void if it’s cleaned with the wrong Woolsafe products or by techniques that are not Woolsafe approved.
For example, a lot of carpet cleaning products contain an enzyme.
This is fine, enzymes are found in wash powders and other products.
It attacks protein stains such as blood and enzymes can be good with greasy stains also. It’s not fine on wool though.
That is to say, wool is a protein fibre.
So it follows that using a protein dissolving product is not going to go well.
A skilled carpet cleaning technician may be able to reduce the damage caused if there is no other choice of possible products to use due to the condition or soil load or the carpet.
However, the best thing is not to go down that route.

Carpet moth
Carpet moths are real nuisance at best. And a very expensive pest infestation at worst.
Carpet moths live, breed, and reproduce in wool carpets.
Carpet moth will destroy a wool carpet, very quickly.
Here are a few points to consider:
Early Detection for carpet moth
Regularly inspecting your wool carpet for signs of carpet moth activity is essential.
Look for small, irregularly shaped holes in you carpet, especially under furniture where it is dark.
You are looking for damage and carpet moth eggs, which are tiny, but can be seen in groups.
You are also looking for carpet moth cocoons.
These are easy to spot, they look like grains of white rice.
If you see any of these things, you should contact Bug Doctor.
Bug Doctor is a pest control service in Doncaster specialising in carpet moth and carpet beetle treatment.
You should do this before further damage occurs to your wool carpet occurs.
A few things that you should know about your wool carpet would be. Most importantly, don’t use bleach on it. Wool will dissolve in bleach. You may not think it will be sitting in it for long. But unless you have a powerful machine to rinse it, it will.
It is open to attack from moths. Not an immediate problem as the fibres will have been treated during manufacture of your carpet. However, it wears off and needs replacing if the possibility of moth damage and beetle infestation is to be avoided.
Mould and mildew on wool carpets.
Mould and mildew can be a problem if an untrained carpet cleaner does not have powerful equipment to dry the carpet. It will always feel damp when cleaned but should dry in a few hours. The quicker the better to avoid these problems.
Most importantly, you need to be very careful what you use as a carpet stain remover. Products of this nature will have disclaimers on them.
So look for bleaches and other chemicals that can ruin your wool carpet.

Cleaning the carpets normally will not get rid of fleas.
