How about some carpet cleaning tips. What's the best way. Not the drop in ones. The glued in ones.

A commercial-grade steam cleaner is the ultimate, but the more economical solution is warm water and a soft bristle brush. I mix a small amount of laundry detergent and water in a bucket, wet down the carpet with a hose, then scrub away and rinse thoroughly. I will then mix a liquid fabric softener with warm water, scrub it into the carpet, then rinse it thoroughly. Most importantly, let the carpet dry in the hot sun! This is thick carpet that needs to dry completely, to prevent mildew.
