I have a regular customer who has a skunk, a cat, two dogs and a six month old baby. The skunk had just had a bath by the owner and bit me on the finger when the owner encouraged me to pet him. He said the skunk was moody from the bath. DO I need rabies shots! Its been six months and I havent died yet.
PS the skunk was roaming around the baby on the floor while I was carpet cleaning after the bite. I had to carpet clean around the baby and skunk on the floor.
 Some parents are insane! And they live in a 600K home. |

That happened to me on my very first commercial job. It turned out that the former business at that location used carpet fresh on a regular basis for years with no professional cleaning (at least that's what I was told afterwards). I guess that was what came up. It wouldn't vacuum off & I had to rinse and let dry two extra times to get it acceptable. The good news is I've still got that account and never had that problem come up again. |

FH.. Tell your helper not to put defoamer on the carpet.. Its very hard to rinse out..
My worst incident: Refilling the Recoil with a garden hose hooked up to the faucet.. and at the same time extracting.. All of a sudden the downstairs ppl peek in the door screeming water..water.. The tank overflowed..OMG..!!
