(good tips snipped)

I'll add- if you or your helper is subject to allergies, wear a dust mask
and have running water and a stack of old towels available to wipe off face
and arms as needed, and plan on showering and changing immediately
afterward. Wash the dirty clothes and towels seperately in hot water. If
allergy-prone people will be in house after, damp-mop and wipe down all
horizontal surfaces, after vacuming, and run an exhaust fan in window for a
few hours. For allergy people, the stuff that grows under a carpet should be
treated as hazmat.

Been there, done that, damn near died after. If I ever get rich enough to
build a house, it'll be hardwood and tile throughout. No rugs too big to
throw in a washer.
