How do you stop a wool rug from leaving bits everywhere?

We have recently bought a 100% wool rug which is dark brown and it sits on quite a light coloured carpet. Every time someone walks on it there is a trail of brown coloured bits everywhere? Does anyone have any tips on how to minimise this problem?

    Hi, This is a natural process of wool rugs shedding loose fibers from the weaving process. It will not hurt your rug just may be a little annoying but the great qualities of wool will make up for that. You may have to vacuum more often 2 or 3 times a week for a year or less until the shedding stops. If the rug is a longer pile like a flokati rug you can rake it with a garden rake (preferable wood or plastic) or uses a wide tooth brush or pet brush to brush it. Hope this helps and hang in there with the shedding!
