I have been trying to get rid of them for a year now what is the procedure when you have carpets in your home

I do not know how bad your infestation is . Mine was slight, and in one room only. My house is carpeted and as a precaution I spray weekly and so far so good . No noted bed bugs. So I will keep using it as a preventive measure. It seems that the spray has a residual effect . Once a week seems to keep it in check. So far so good.

Hey if you want to call me, it is easier to just explain it to you then to type all of it in here. It isn't hard at all but I would rather explain it to someone so they don't have to keep doing it over and over again and spend more money then what is needed. Thanks, Deana 317-800-1988

I have experienced the same thing. Fortunately, mine is setting on concrete in my basement, so it is not a problem.I belive the feet are made of a plastic resin that just bleeds. Best cleaner I have ever seen for carpets is "Spot Shot", sold at most Home Depots or Lowes.

I use CleanAway, which is a detergent based pet cleaner and deoderizer. I also add some fabric softner as the soap left in the rug tends to bring the spot back quicker. The softener cuts the detergent. Can also use vinegar as the softener. Hope this helps

If you have lots of animal fur or especially dirty floors, I would suggest pre-sweeping. I run Roomba first. It's more difficult to clean up wet fur out of the rollers and tanks than to just do a quick pick up first. Plus it is hard to see inside the tank to see if fur is stuck to the inside of it.

you need a liquid rug shampoo - most do have some sort of chemicals in them.

Just run the regular sweeper. No pretreatment is required. Our house we bought was a model home. The carpets didn't look dirty. But we have six little dogs and when we first moved in the peed ALOT. This took care of all stains and I couldn't believe the dirt that was on the floor. And it smelled wonderful.

Really?! Your whole house carpeted!? You must have a tough time keeping it clean in your kitchen!

I just take a wet cloth and wipe it out several times. I do that about once a week.

I don't have carpet just bare floors, I just sprinkled around the edges and put on the back of my counters and around the dog dishes. It is the only thing that I have ever purchased that got rid of the ants. I would just sprinkle on the carpets let set a couple of days and then vacuum and if you see anymore ants you could also sprinkle a little more.

Thank you for your question Elizabeth; here are a few tips: 1) Remove excess stain or pet urine first, utilizing a highly absorbent towel. 2) Apply a generous amount of pet urine stain remover to the affected area and allow to stand. For tough odors, both carpet and underlying pad must be thoroughly treated. Allow to stand 60 min. 3) Fold the towel and lay it on the treated area allowing it to absorb the excess liquid out of the carpet pad. 4) Once dried, inspect, and then vacuum the treated area. If stain and odor remains, repeat the above procedure.

Yes, dust it everywhere youve seen them and any where they could be and leave it for about a day. I swept the floors and carpets to spread it everywhere about a day later then vacuumed. Keep aome extra left over in case you see them more afterwards.

YES. my son brought them home from camp. It took several treatments but each time they got fewer and fewer. Treat furniture, rugs and mattresses 1 - 2 times a week and they will go away.

We've had it for over a year, and have found that a sponge and soapy water have cleaned any stains pretty well. If we ran into a worse problem, I'd likely try carpet/upholstery cleaner, but no need yet.

I use a solution of 50% carpet spot remover and 50% water in a 1-liter bottle (easier to grip with one hand). Drill 4 very small diameter (1/16") holes in the top. Squeeze solution on the spot, scrub with a brush and vacuum up the residue. For minor spots such as fresh dog poop. pick up the poop with a paper towel, squeeze solution on residual stain and vacuum without scrubbing with a brush. Scrubbing a fresh stain only spreads it to adjacent carpet fibers. A dish soap and water solution will also work instead of carpet a spot remover and water solution.

The best way to clean them is vacuuming them with a vacuum. When you can no longer get them somewhat clean it is time for a new one. The cleaner they are the more suction the vacuum will have.

I didn't do any specific pretreating. I did do several passes on particularly problematic areas and will continue to do so. My primary rug is a very light off white, over my large active dogs reside and live. Some stains basically come out over extended times and repeated cleanings. Once I purchased a rug cleaner rather than renting one, the carpet has slowly improved in cleanliness over the last couple of years.
