How is this applied into the carpet? I am looking for a temp solution for my son's party next week.

It is like a giant sticker roll. Roll it out about 4 inches and stick it down and then pull it where it goes and stick it down. I use one side of scissors to cut it once it's laid down, like a box cutter but not that severe!! It's like a plastic sticky Saran Wrap for carpet. I have bought this a handful of times and it is perfect for my use. It's awesome, durable and lasts for a couple of weeks! I use it at my entrance way as there is not a hard wood/tile option, just carpet immediately entering the house and I live in the woods. It has managed to keep my carpeted floors stain/water free!

hello it not easy to put down it is a two man job and three if you got them. one to hold the roll one to pull it out and one to cut it off after you pull it out. once you get it down it does do a good job it is just hard to get it down straight. good luck

I just used it for a move-in to my new home and I just laid it down on the traffic areas. It is just like a runner. So if that is all you need to do, it will work well. And you will need to pick it up once your guests are gone. I think the longer you leave it on, the sticky stuff may end up on your carpet. But if it is picked up within a few hours, all is fine. Hope this helps.

One side has a slightly tacky side that adheres it to the carpet. Depending upon what is happening on top of the shield, keep in mind that it is ONLY a Saran Wrap type covering for carpet.

Easy! Just roll it out onto your carpet and it sticks automatically with a sticky side. Pulls up easily afterwards with no damage to your carpet.

curious after your question, I took a spoon of baking soda and srayed ADMS on it, there was no reaction other than dissolving the soda, so I don't see why you couldn't spray it on carpet that has soda on it.

I have placed mine on carpet before and have had no problems. The unit itself doesn't seem to get very warm to the touch.

When I got my new carpet the man told me to use only hot water, no solution. Solution builds up and stays in the rug to attract more dirt.

We have a 2 story home in Colorado with 12X12 Ceramic floor tile in the living room and kitchen. Our heat and air conditioning registers are in a vaulted ceiling on the first floor, so it is 4 or 5 degrees cooler that our 2nd floor. We added a thermo pad under the RUGBUDDY and installed them under the area rug we were all ready using. It make sitting in our recliner very comfortable and we do not need to keep our upstairs bedrooms as warm, so it took care of two problems with one rugbuddy. We highly recommend the Intertek LUX programmable thermostat.

it is applied over the carpet very easily. Very happy with it. makes wiping up a little slop real easy.

Place the mat under the legs. My problem was that this mat won't stay in-place on carpet anyway.

You just spray it on the carpet. It works but not as well as the Scotchgard that is professionally applied. However, it is much, much cheaper. It did not work that well on a jute carpet I have under my dining table.

Its awesome for cleaning carpet. I always keep the gallon of water and 1 tbsp sal suds on hand. When I add it to the spray bottle I also add a quarter hydrogen peroxide as a disinfectant. This is the combination I used when my sister dropped a very saucy homemade slice of pizza, sauce side down, onto the cream carpet. I didn't really think the splatter of sauce would come out, but sure enough its totally clean.

Spray the spot and surrounding area with warm water. Then use a clean brush and brush lightly without damaging the carpet. Repeat till stain goes away. You may also add white distilled vinegar or baking soda mixed with water for tough stains. Use a fan to dry the carpet and vacuum till dry.

Sprinkle the powder in between cracks of the walls. Sprinkle it all over the mattress and get a mattress cover. I also sprinkled it over my carpet and put another throw carpet over it so I didn't step on the powder, only because it dries your skin out. Basically you put it everywhere. And keep vacuuming. But like I said in my review it didn't work. I just ended up getting a spray from Lowe's an they are gone.

Hi, if you are going to steam the matress, do it first then install the encasement. I steamed my carpets but not the matress, it might be a waste of your time. Personally I just bought rubbing alcohol and a spray bottle and I sprayed it all over the mattress as well as on the visible bed bugs that were hiding in the corners and then I placed encasement. Honestly from my experience if there are any eggs or live bed bugs when you encase it they get stuck in there. Only con to rubbing alcohol is that it doesn't kill eggs just live bed bugs with 2 simple sprays! I would also recommend you buy the beep coasters those will detect if you got rid of them or if the problem is decreasing. Good luck!

That product is great, even if sprayed on thin. kept our floors warm in the winter. HUGE difference.

I would use double sided carpet tape instead of glue. No drying time, instant results, no mess.

I use this for just that! As well as for stains. I don't vacuum it after spraying.However once a week, and only in the living room. I will spray my carpet until its noticeably damp, sprinkle baking soda over that, take a broom and broom over it all (to work the baking soda down). Then I let it sit overnight, and vacuum in the morning. It takes me all of 10 minutes and keeps my carpet looking great, with no stains or odors.

Hi Emily, the solution is only for hard floor surfaces, not carpets. I love this steamer for the tiled floors in my home, but I did not think it was great on the carpets. If you are looking for a carpet cleaning machine you can find better options. Good luck!

The condo comes apart; floor and dome are seperate. Hose it off, spray a little resolve and hose it again. Let it air dry; in the sunshine before putting the unit back together. It is an indoor/outdoor type of material. I put the heater mat in my unit, and it covers 1/2 the rug. I put an old hand towel in there too for kitty to "bunch up". That is easy to take out and clean. Otherwise, not much reason to clean it more than spring and fall.
