Actually they make a double sided tape that works for carpet... check with your home-improvement store (Lowe's, Home Depot, ect.) they should be able to help.

You could try using simple duct tape on the underside of the rug, at corners and along the edge. This should stiffen the rug at those locations and may prevent curling.
The best solution would be use of "double sided tape". This adheres to the rug and the floor. If the floor is wood, you may have some difficulty removing the residue of adhesive.
This tape is available at Home Depot and some floor covering stores.
If you have a pad under the rug, try the double sided tape and adhere to the pad.
Your problem is dangerous and may cause an injurious fall.

I just have a thought.
You can tape some small metal washers to the under side.
If you have an area that you can turn the rug over & spray the back side with starch, this should stiffen the rug up & help it lay flat. Be careful with where you get the starch.

life love has the main suitable thank you to flow approximately it. same as i became into going to tell you. yet!!!!! Get the acceptable mat and length for the variety of floor its over. There are particular variety s for wood flooring( they permit the timber breathe. types for vinyl floor( are no longer made up of oil based products which will completely stain a vinyl floor) And ones for rugs over carpet. the forged ones would have a cheesy feeling to maintain stuff in place and could entice common airborne dirt and airborne dirt and dust over the years and all you may do is toss in washing gadget and wash, the "tackiness" returns and additionally you utilize them lower back. One variety I used to sell is termed Rug carry yet there are others on the industry GL
