Answer 1

Carpets hold in dirt so no matter how much you clean your carpets some dirt will remain... You can use a mixture of baking soda/salt mix it together and use on the rug...The BS will deodorize the carpet and the salt picks up any loose dirt. You'll just have to vacuum a lot if your carpet is a dark brown... Also, your vacuum may have lost suction if it's not picking up ALL the dirt... Good luck

Answer 2

Because carpeting catches ALL the dirt. Do you let people walk thru there with shoes on? That will leave dirt particles all over the place. Dirt is a part of life. Also, it could be carpeting dye color that is wearing off.
I would just buy some slippers and use them instead of socks.

Answer 3

There is dirt in there from before you moved in. It's probably so old, you won't ever be able to get all the dirt out! It's amazing how absorbent that stuff can be. (Heck, maybe it wasn't always brown!)

You need to put a work order in to your apartment to get the carpets cleaned.

Answer 4

carpet is disgusting. no matter how often you vacuum or shampoo your carpet it is dirty. you couldn't pay me to have carpet in my house. definitely get another type of flooring like tile or hardwood. i still never walk in my house without shoes or flip flops on, i hate for my feet to be or feel dirty.
