[quote=Anonymous]Easy - replace the old carpet with low-emission new carpet or flooring. There are plenty of options; stop by a flooring store. For example, 'Flor' carpet tiles are low-emission and can be reasonably priced (depending on the pattern) and easily installed. Marmoleum or cork are good options too. Personally I prefer non-carpet floors with area rugs, since we have allergies. They will NOT be as cheap as your standard carpet, but they will be much healthier. I agree that the formaldehyde, etc. in regular new carpets is not something you'd want a newborn exposed to.[/quote]
