Nice polished wood floor, + rug. *Treacherous*. To prevent slipping, what?

Horrendously slippery.



Wife claims that the sticky under-carpet pad she's familiar with will harm the floor (the "valuable, beautiful wood floor"), and that I'll just have to learn to be careful when entering that room, that's all.



(Guests breaking necks? Nah, no worry, ...)



So, what to do -- that won't "harm" the wood floor?



(Especially nice if it doesn't cost an arm and leg ...)



Thanks!

Go buy a rubber mat. It won't hurt the floor and if the wife says otherwise tell her this is a special blend of reclaimed latex.

Somebody suggested a jute pad when I mentioned buying a non-slip pad a week or so back.

There are special sprays for this , at Ace or anywhere, maybe called No Slip spray

Jute is good for wall to wall but it will slip on an area rug.
