Well if you cant return it try ozone on it even though it might deteriorate the backing depending on how long you treat it for,or try spraying a duct sealant over the backing the same way we seal ducts in a fire damage situation and then scotch guard the top of the rug. this is all i can think of for now let me sleep on it and i may come up with another idea.

keben this is for a baby's room, it is not worth the time or $. If it was your kid would you try this? I like your idea, I have a bunch of ozone generators and I would try the same, but not for my kids room.

What do you mean by "good guess".

Hand made and hand knotted are two different things.

I just mean you said in your post "Likely made in India.", and you were right!

Yep the east indians really overkill with the new car smell don't they.

Thanks all for the help. 

We called the company headquarters, who referred us to the store manager, and they took the rug back and gave us "store credit" even though we bought it 6 months ago and didn't have the receipt anymore.  This was acceptable to us.

I don't have a fax - could you email me details? I've got a wool rug from NeXt in the UK which has the same rubber smell.  It has been in my son's play room for the last year and started smelling about 6 weeks ago.  I've aired it loads but like the person you replied to before have not had any luck. 

If my son has been exposed to danger, I naturally want to know what this is.  Hope you can help.

If necessary I'll get access to a fax somehow.

Thanks in advance

No fooling around here. If you leave your fax number I can provide you with a news release from ASCR that would further your case with the retailer.

The improper formulation of latex can be extremely toxic.

The carpet is likely gun tufted with a cottom scrim.

Likely made in India.

Absolutely no reason that it wouldn't be replaced by the manufacturer or retailer.
