Q:This rug in in our appt. and because of leaking windows mold is starting to form, the rug is tan in color and bleach will stain please help

if you are renting this apartment, it is the responsibility of the landlord/managing agent to repair the damage and replace the windows and the carpet . . .the carpet will need to be thrown out . . in the meantime, when the carpet is dry, you will need to pull it back from the wall so the floor can dry out too and then spray the heck out of it with Lysol Mold and Mildew Spray to kill the spores - saturate it - let it dry again . . . use a rug doctor (the kind of machine you can rent at the grocery store to clean the carpet as well as you can . . . then give the bill to the landlord/managing agent for reimbursement . . . depending on the mold type, you could have a serious health issue going on there . . .

Q:Okay so I know a lot of you are like ew, why does your carpet smell? But I need some serious help its embarrassing. My aunt smokes and I borrowed some shoes from her and if you've ever come in contact with a smoker you know the smell gets into everything. My room started to smell of musty cigerette's and I found it was the carpet because of the shoes. I've tried this Glade Carpet Room Odors but it just seems to mask the smell terribly instead of getting rid of it. I'm thinking I might have to clean it on hands and knees, using some soap and water.

initially you men ought to handle the clarification for dampness. probable your drains are finished of leaves etc and particularly of H20 draining off it is going into the basement partitions...Or another situation like that. Is there ponding on the roof or something like that ? next, run a fan or another warmth producing ventilating gadget like that. Use fabreeze ?

Q:What color carpet is suitable to match on annatto floor?

Depending on the style of your room and the furniture you have at home, you can make light grey, silver, black, and carpet with geometric figures or lines. If you have green plants next to you, you can also try green carpets. They will match up a little.

Q:Is there some kind of carpeting that won't collect dust deep within its root? We're going to have most of our carpeting changed to laminate because I have HORRIBLE dust allergies, but we want to keep the carpeting in the living room and dining room. Is there some kind of hypo-allergenic carpeting?

Dust is in the air, when it settles it goes into the carpeting and a deep pile will be harder to clean so get a Berber or even a commercial carpet if you can stand it. None of it is hypoallergenic in regards to dust, but some of it is made with less formaldehyde or other chemicals.and may be marketed it as hypoallergenic in that regard. If that's not your problem, then just go with the low pile Berber and a really good vacuum. You might want to let the carpet air out a few days before installation. An area rug with a pile will hold dust too. Its the pile that is deep that doesn't allow the vacuum to get all the dust out. The material, wool, cotton, nylon doesn't matter, its the construction.

Q:what's the difference between an emerlen rug and a wool rug?

A wool rug is obviously made from wool or a wool. These rugs can either be hand knotted (best quality) or machine tufted. Persian rugs are wool for example. Emerlen is a 100% synthetic Polypropylene. The rugs are air-twisted (woven) and heat set. It's basically a FAKE wool rug.

Q:My husband had grease from the shop on his shoes and walked on my beige carpet. Now I have small little strips of grease on the floor. What is the best way to remove it without killing my carpet

first off, i gotta say this: you are a brave woman having beige carpets and a mechanic in the same house! i avoid buying anything light colored for that very reason. to remove the grease though: Dawn dish soap. it is great stuff! just take the Dawn, mix a tablespoon or so in you sink and add like 1/2 an inch of water. swish it around with your hand to get it super bubbly. take a damp sponge and scoop it through the bubbles. rub the bubbles into the stain really good getting more bubbles periodically. let them sit for about 20 minutes, get your carpet shampooer out if you have one, and use that to rinse the spot. if not, use a rag and warm water. you might have to do it a few times, but that has gotten grease out of my carpets on more than one occasion. Gojo works pretty good too, or fast orange, or whatever he scrubs up with at work, but the pumice is hard to get out of the carpet, so look for one with no grit. the Gojo works great on greasy work clothes though, with or without the grit. (with grit works great on denim.)

Q:I have a puppy that is a year old and she still isn't fully potty trained(shes a lot better than she used to be, but still has accidents) plus i have a toddler and normally have many other children here- leaving spills and stains. So for the past year I have used my carpet shampooer A LOT but am now concerned that it may have mold under it or in the padding. my mother keeps telling me they aren't a good thing to use and they will create mold. So I am wondering if it would be moldy and if so how I can get rid of the mold? Thanks!:)

Carpet shampooers do thoroughly soak your carpet, but they are also designed to pull the liquid quickly back out so it does not remain in the carpet. The cleaning works the same way that the river smooths stones - friction and water. Mold requires a long breeding time, contaminants, and a warm, damp environment. One way to get mold in the carpet is to leave a wet spot for a long time. This could simply mean that the puppy managed to get away with one accident that you didn't see, and when you finally trod across that area, it was already soaked down to the padding and so, never got cleaned up. Another possibility is that your carpet shampooer MIGHT be malfunctioning, and not pulling the water back out fast enough. This would be very easy to determine, as the carpet would be very wet when you finish. If it's damp, but not soaked, then the carpet shampooer is probably not to blame for the problem. There is a possibility that you have another problem, such as a busted pipe or something that could be affecting it. If you can't determine the source, you can pull the carpet off of the tacks, and check to see if you have mold.
