beware the steam vac

I’d always seen the steam vacs at Safeway. Thus, when we decided to do a massive house cleaning yesterday, i decided to make certain that all of the carpets and rugs got a thorough cleaning. We have a no-shoe policy in our house so i figured it would just help get rid of Marble fur and random dust. I was so not prepared for the color of the water in a matter of moments. The amount of dirt that came out of those rugs was mindblowing. Where on earth did it come from? Is it from before my time? If you think that your house is clean and tidy, go do a steam vac on your rugs. Me oh my.

    Do you have forced-air heating? It would certainly blow a lot of dirt and dust around your house and into your carpet.

    Oh, and there’s gross things like the fact that we’re all shedding bits of skin all the time. Yuck.

    It’s a dirty world out there.

    Heating? What is this thing you call heating? Kevin… i live in cheap SF housing. This means we have space heaters, not heating. Forced air certainly…
