I have become a firm believer in wood, tile or vinyl floors and good rugs.

The rugs should be beaten over a railing outside to get the dust out. Most dirt that comes in on shoes or blows in has tiny quartz crystals that work their way down into the pile and cuts fibres with their sharp micro edges.

This is why I don't wear shoes inside for this very reason.
