I always use the washing machine to wash the rug from the floor of my bathroom. This works fine but since I know how nasty bathroom floors are I would like to start sterilizing the washer after I run the rug through it. Does anyone have any good methods or products they suggest that will sterilize the machine before I put clothes back in it? Thanks.

I just purchased an 8×11 handmade wool rug online. I am not sure if I need a rug pad under it to keep it from slipping or whatever. I’ve seen a few rubber ones that cost around $80 and some thicker plush ones going for over $100. Is it really worth it?

I have a rug that used to be in our playroom and has a bit of a stain already. I would hate to just throw it out since it is rather cute. I am turning a screened in patio area into an outdoor art and play space for my children and was wondering if I could use the rug down there? What dangers are there to doing this, if any?

I have that enzyme cleaner for urine, but does it work for throw up as well? My house houlse smells from our rug that the dog threw up on a few times in the last week.

I’m moving into a room with a dark blue rug and I want to paint the walls. It’s pretty much a straight dark blue with no other hints of color. It’s a dining room being converted into a bedroom, so it’s about twice the size of a normal bedroom. I’m male and my furniture and wall hangings are of an old european theme (dark wood, tapestries, old maps etc.). I want to convey a masculine, yet warm and inviting feel to the room. Since the carpet color doesn’t afford me many painting options, I wanted to see what you thought.
I have a color in mind, but I wanted to see what other people thought because perhaps there is something I haven’t thought of myself. Thanks for your input.

No matter what we try, putting new litter in like however often, he always decides its funner to poop on the rug. How can we get him out of this bad habit?

I have an 8 month old kitten and a 7 month old kitten and one (or both) have been pooping on the rug, in the hallway where the litter box is. It’s always in this area. I make sure their litter boxes are clean, so idk what to do. I clean up all the messes and make sure there’s fresh litter. Any advice?

my sofas are a deep red colour and my rug is black, i want some new curtains in my living room. i have a window and french doors so need 2 sets of curtains and not sure what colour to go for, maybe a gold colour would look nice? not sure!
