Default Slippery laminate stairs


Hi,


Because of severe allergy, I replaced the entire carpet area in my
home with laminate/pergo a few months ago, including stairs, by
laminate specialists.

Since then my 4 year old son slipped couple of times on the way up or
down and got injuired with a big bruise on his nose at one time couple
of days ago.

Now, it's late but I need to take immediate actions for safety to
prevent more accidents from happening by the slippery stairs.

I heard that installing stair runners (made of rug/carpet) could be
one option. Otherwise, replacing them back with carpet.

Having called several local carpet stores, I couldn't get clear
convincible advices, and most of them either were reluctant to suggest
the stair runners or even have never heard of stair runners.

Any good suggestions for the best way to fix this situation?

Thanks much in advance!
