The thing about drilling holes next to switches or sockets is the high risk of damaging a wire, and God knows you don’t want any more damages. So the good news is you can drill without actually ruining them; all that you need is a microphone.

Simply, connect a tape recorder with the microphone and start the device with maximum volume. Put the microphone next to the place you want to drill, and if it has wires, then it will make a low hum from the tape recorder’s dynamics. The safest place to drill is where they will be no humming!

There come times when we need to move heavy, big furniture but we are just too scared to ruin the carpet.

To avoid that, try putting jar lids under the furniture’s legs that you want to move and you will notice that the moving process will be easier for you and safer for your carpet. However, make sure the jar lids are big enough for the legs of the furniture.

In case you didn’t use the jar lids as we suggested, or you already have dents in your carpet, then don’t worry because it is not done yet and everything is fixable.

Go to your freezer and take a few ice cubes, put them on the traces of the carpet, let them melt, and then vacuum it.

Take an old toothbrush that you don’t use anymore and lift the fibers with it. This trick is supposed to work like magic, but in case it didn’t, then it is best to purchase a new carpet. Don’t forget to use the jar lids, then!
