Sweeping Carpet Tips
Even after vacuuming the rug, it still looks rather dirty. We recently tried to sweep the rug as we do with the rest of the floor, and it worked wonders. This method saved on power, the time of getting out and putting away the vacuum, and it produced better results.
It works pretty well. You have to sweep several times over the same area to see results. But at least I can see results unlike when I used the vacuum cleaner. The rug collects mainly grass that falls off our shoes. I see now why my sister-in-law has everyone take off their shoes at the door. That’s not crazy; that is a very smart practice. We should start doing that, too. It definitely would mean less time spent sweeping.
Sweeping the carpet is something I probably never would have done had I not seen my husband do it – and it work fairly well. Although it takes a few minutes, the results are better than using my vacuum cleaner.
