How do you remove carpet ruts?

To remove carpet ruts, start by vacuuming the area to remove any debris. Then, use a steam iron and a damp cloth; place the cloth over the rut and apply the steam for a few seconds to relax the fibers. After steaming, gently fluff the carpet fibers with your fingers or a soft brush. For stubborn ruts, you can also place a heavy object on the area for a day or two to help reshape the fibers.
