This is not a defect; simply trim with nail clippers and continue using. ※ Natural scent: Natural rush grass has a distinct aroma. Those sensitive to smells should sample the scent before purchasing. ※ Fragrance and color changes: The environment and air circulation where the rush grass product is placed may affect its scent and color. **【How to Use】** ※ For first use, wipe with a dry cloth. Dyed rush grass products may initially release some color. ※ Do not step on with shoes or place heavy furniture on top. ※ If skin irritation occurs, discontinue use immediately. ※ Clean with vacuum cleaner following the weaving direction; if necessary, wipe with a well-wrung cloth. ※ Avoid direct sunlight to prevent fading or sunspots. ※ If liquid spills, quickly absorb with a dry cloth and air dry in shade. ※ Maintain good ventilation; open windows on clear days. ※ For dust mites or mold, clean with a brush in a well-ventilated area, then sun-dry for about one hour. ※ Clean and dry the floor before installation. ※ For grass mat products, check mattress size and firmness to avoid breakage. ※ Before storage, clean thoroughly and keep in a dry place, avoiding heavy pressure or direct sunlight. **【About Us】** Since 1886, IKEHIKO has grown from its Fukuoka origins to become Japan's premier rush grass brand across five imperial eras.
