How do i stop my rug from sliding?

So I have this big area rug in the middle of my living room and it keeps rolling up and sliding around how do I make it stay in one place. Nothing permanent because I rent. And its on carpet.

There is a special rubbery ( but its not) type of mesh/woven etc under layment that you put under a rug to stop it from scooting. Comes in many sizes so know your rug size and it can be cut to fit using scissors. Get the type for rug over carpet. Leaves no residue ( like double sided tape can). Washable , so when it loses its tackiness you toss it in to be washed and its as good as new. Any questions you can e mail me through my avatar. GL
You can get this mesh stuff that's sort of grippy. You cut it to fit and put it under the rug. They probably have it at Walmart or Lowes. I think it' called non-skid backing.
Double sided tape.
Carpet pad.
