Everyday care

• Remove dust with a vacuum, a broom, or a dry cloth, working along the grain of the weave.
• Igusa draws in moisture, so on dry, sunny days open a window and let air through to help the mat last.

If it gets dirty

• Blot the spot gently with a firmly wrung-out cloth, then dry it right away with a clean dry cloth.
• Igusa does not take well to water. Do not leave it damp or wash it with water, as this can cause stains and discoloration.

Moisture and mold

• In humid seasons, air it out now and then in a shaded, well-ventilated spot.
• Direct sun can fade the color, so always dry it in the shade.

Note: With sun exposure the color shifts from green to a soft amber. This is igusa's natural aging, not a flaw.
