I've got a few old oriental rugs on a floor of my house that have fringes on two sides.

I've also got a roomba; he's very sweet.

When he tries to vacuum around the rugs, sometimes he gets caught and requires assistance.

Is there something I can do to help alleviate this issue?

Note: "cut the fringes off" will not be accepted.

    Some report that newer robot vacuum cleaner models can handle rug fringe trim up to 3½" long. – Stan Dec 07 '19 at 05:28

I would tuck the fringes under the rugs, then let the roomba do its thing.

When its done, shake out the fringes again.

  • I had to tuck about an inch and a half of the rug under, as well; just tucking the frills under didn't stop my industrious little friend from trying to eat them. – goodguy5 Dec 10 '19 at 20:28
