We had these nasty carpets in our basement and bedrooms. We decided to rip them out so we could put in better flooring. If you ever rip out carpet you need to remove the baseboard. Luckily we did this earlier when we painted the walls. Carpet is probably the easiest to remove of flooring because it rips out quickly.
Make sure to wear a mask an glasses when working with carpet.
Sometimes there may be staples from the underlay that may need to be removed.
Removing carpet is simple when done properly.
I'm glad you wore the mask... who knows what kid of mites where in the carpet!!
