Question:

Disgusting Carpet?

My carpet is AWFUL.Even the big, top of the line cleaning machines won't get out the dirt, stains, and ground in stuff in my carpet. I cannot recarpet it, I am 15 and my parents won't let me.What takes staind out? And what about dirt? Except for where furniture used tobe the carpet has gone from white to a lightl dirty beige.Any help will be wonderful, I can try anything, thank you.

Answer:

Well, depending on how big the room is you could pull up the carpet and get a reminant from a carpet store/Home Depot or Walmart... We purchased a 12x12 piece of carpet for around $100 for a room that had really old hardwood floors.. Do some chores/odd jobs to help pay for the new carpet... Your 15 it would be good to help out....
If cleaning machines won't do it and you can't replace it, I'd buy slippers and try not to come in direct contact. Eeew.
id be throwing a tantrum..old dirty carpet breeds all kinds of germs and dust mite and it unhealthy...demand they pull it up..tell then when your near it ..it make you itchy and causes you a rash...tell them its unhygenic....if its clean enough to bear with..buy i nice big floor rug to cover the stains...
Some of the new carpet foam cleaners work really great...and smell good too....I don't know how much carpet you have to clean....but they do work....just spray on the carpet...get a bunch of paper towels.....and wipe off....or let set for a few minutes...and repeat.....you have to do it by hand....so it will take a while.... ...some stains though are really hard to get out....others...from everyday dirt...the spray carpet cleaners really do help....
Carpets don't last forever. The carpet should have been cleaned from the very begining when before you noticed it was dirty. Depending on the stains some can't get out at all so you're stuck with it. What you can do is put an area rug over your carpet. Ask your parents if that is ok. Go to WalMart and see if there is something you like and can afford. It is important to take care of things that you use. Later in life you'll see how much more expensive it is when YOU have to pay for them.
