Cord on carpet
Cable Off Carpet
Cables like this one that have been painted and have other stuff on the cord can turn a freshly cleaned carpet into a perfect job except for that ugly stain that wasn't there before. It's best to push the cable back into the wall to shorten it up a little or find another way gets these cables out of the way either before or during the cleaning. We can clean right around and under them, but the best practice is to eliminate the possibility of resoiling by removing extra segments of cable, lifting it out of the way, or shortening it as pictured above by pushing the cable back into the wall.
