Sticky Door Mats - A Look Into Their Usefulness

By Jack Delrento

It's most likely that most houses in your neighborhood have a door mat in front of their front door. It is also most likely that not a lot of those door mats are sticky door mats. Basically a sticky door mat is not much different than a normal door mat except the top is sticky. Mom's can rejoice at the fact they don't have to worry about children wiping their feet.

There are many varieties in these sticky door mats coming in a great many different shapes and sizes. These handy front door decors actually have quite a few uses such as the following:

Kids

And kids can and will be messy. In a moment of excitement little can be done to stop them from barging back in the house with terribly filthy shoe bottoms. Most kids will not even consider wiping their feet as they enter your house leaving your tile or carpet completely vulnerable to all kinds of messes. Kids do not think about these things. They won't hesitate when they rip their shoes off their feet and plop the dirty little things on the floor.

With sticky mats you can say goodbye to that little scenario, as dirt and grime from outside automatically stick to the top of the mat. As long as your kids don't leapfrog over the mat into the house, you're in good shape.

Less Cleaning for You

Many modern homes are designed with all-tile flooring. And if you have kids and pets, you're constantly sweeping and away dirt and mopping up mud. Yikes. Since sticky mats are made to trap so much of the dirt that normally gets left on your floor, you will soon discover that you aren't cleaning as often as before (at least not the floors).

Your Carpets Will Stay Cleaner And Brighter

It doesn't take long for houses that are equipped with an all carpet floor to start to look dirty as the carpet becomes full of stains thanks to your families traffic as a whole.

And once again the sticky carpet comes in handy, trapping all that dirty mess at the front door keeping most of it out of your carpet leaving your house to look much more fresh. Your carpet will retain that newly washed or installed look for quite a bit more time. - 29954
