Care & longevity tips
-
Store your broom indoors, in a dry spot. Moisture can cause mildew or weaken fibres.
-
Hang or rest the broom upside down (bristle end up) to preserve shape.
-
Rotate the broom head during sweeping so wear is even.
Avoid excessive damp cleaning (e.g. mopping the broom), as millet is natural fibre.
