Here’s another of my serious questions. Exactly why did we stop living in caves? Caves have a lot of advantages. First and foremost, you don’t have to sweep the floor and you dang sure don’t have to clean the rugs.
You guessed it. My financial controller decided we had some area rugs that needed to be cleaned and she could do it herself. Translated that means, I can do it. Since the areas are small and just needed a touch up, she rented a machine. Said machine weighs about as much as the house. And, it was designed for short people.
If you have ever used one of the machines, you can understand my frustrations. If you have never used one, don’t. Just take the rug outside and set fire to it. I wanted to hang the rugs in question over the fence and hit them with a power washer. That idea did not get positive feedback.
As a rule, I do not endorse any products, but I have discovered one that is worth mentioning. It is called Krud Kutter - available at your big box building supply. This stuff works. There were a couple of spots on the rugs that wouldn’t budge, but they did with a few shots of KK. It has been my experience that this stuff will clean anything. Caution, do not brush your teeth with it, unless you can take your teeth out and hose them off.
Back to the cave. We as a species need to rethink living in houses. Another advantage of a cave is that you can barbeque in the living room. And, you don’t have to read a bunch of labels on stuff to clean rugs.
Ugh - that’s a cave man response for what ever you just said.
