Okay, then your words must be enough.
Now someone can approve your BB.

For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?

Note: I hate to reject your second attempt. It is crucial to understand that the UV exposure for >2 hrs kills microscopic critters. Base on the action shot and after shot, I note that the rug is in the shade.

Needed help getting in the rug as it started to rain. It was out all afternoon and we flipped it halfway.

Good Day,

Here is my submission for the Clean an Area Rug BB:

In addition to beating the rug and hanging it in the sun for 3 hours, I also brushed it, front and back.
