The rug by my front door needed a good shake for all the dust. I shook it, beat it, and rinsed it. There are a few spots, which I scrubbed with a bristle brush and water.

It was time to beat a rug.  I used a home made rug beater and was shocked at how much dirt and dust came out of the rug that gets vacuumed regularly.
