> Turns out there’s already an effective old-fashioned way to achieve your goal of a clean floor while neither insulting my hygiene habits nor endangering my delicate, vulnerable, long-suffering feet: It’s called a doormat.
A doormat reduces the dirt by maybe 60%. You will still see prints after using one.
- Arrath 5y agoGood luck getting 100% of the moisture off of shoes, depending on climate/season, too. Here in the PNW my shoes would wetly squeak across the hardwood for half the year.
- Auracle 5y agoA doormat isn’t going to do much if I stepped in poop of some kind or another, as happens somewhat regularly if you live in a rural area. That might not be a problem if it’s obvious but if you did more walking in grass/in the woods after it might not be noticeable. I’m pretty sure my shoes almost always have at least a little poo on them. I don’t want that inside.
