But then, I bought a different kind of carpet that is comfortable to lie on whenever I feel like it. <br /><br />Another reason for buying a new one is for my room, and I needed one that is easy to clean for me and for the <a href="http://drysolutions.com/about-carpet-cleaners-tampa-fl/" rel="nofollow">carpet cleaners in Tampa</a>.<br /><br />I had seen a huge problem on a rug when I once visited my friend's house only to smell the stench of cat poop, after which I hurriedly recommended guys from the <a href="http://drysolutions.com/" rel="nofollow">carpet cleaning in Tampa, Fl</a>orida who fixed my rug. Few hours later, the rug was good as new.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15461876383540558734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-210818371540491059.post-67862129669780705202010-10-06T09:30:01.197-05:002010-10-06T09:30:01.197-05:00We experienced the same thing in Winston-Salem.

The directions say to moisten the stain before applying the cleaner to loosen them up. I use water in a spray bottle.

With a dog and small children, there have been potty accidents (by both kids and dog), food rubbed in, crayons, you name it! My Pottery Barn rugs don't look worn or stained at all. I first try to soak up any liquids and then will use a Clorox wipe to disinfect. It does take a little while for the spot to dry but no stains!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-210818371540491059.post-18709343135684012832009-07-31T08:20:30.289-05:002009-07-31T08:20:30.289-05:00perfect...

We want some rugs for our house to layer under our cowhides, and I was leaning towards mountaingrass (fancy hemp) b/c I was worried the seagrass would be harder to clean (we have 4 dogs). Now I may be brave enough to try it.<br /><br />p.s. - My personal favorite enzyme cleaners for pet stains (to get the odor out not the stains) are<br />Davis Odor Destroyer (water soluble concentrate) and the Equalizer (an alcohol based aerosol, great for upholstery and carpeting)elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13674994381596448341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-210818371540491059.post-23216118005958879672009-07-30T15:10:38.393-05:002009-07-30T15:10:38.393-05:00We have the 2.5 lb.
