Talk about slippery! this happened almost one year ago. She is managing with rubber soles but the poor dog, who is also getting on, is slipping and falling all over the place. We've tried vinegar without any success. Any suggestions?

(it's in my profile, http://www.grippiesonline.com/home.html) When adhered to the bottoms of socks, tights, stockings, whatever, GRIPPIES makes a non-slip surface much like those pre-made grip socks, only they're better--because they provide traction on slippery floors, but are not too sticky to slip into a shoe comfortably. We've been getting great feedback so far, if anyone would like to try it, go to the site and please use coupon code MOTC10 for 10% off 2 or more sheets of GRIPPIES. Any feedback is so helpful as we are always trying to improve upon our product. Thanks!

They are likely on clearance now as they seemed to be more of a seasonal item in the sock department. You may even want to purchase several extras and keep them in a cute baskets by your exterior doors for guests. I know I would be grateful to any hostess who might offer them as opposed to a slip and fall. Do explain the reason for the offer first however, as if you hand a guest gripper socks without an explanation, one might assume you care more about floor protection than safety. Also, don't wear panty hose or nylon socks as they are very hazardous on hardwood. I learned this the hard way walking down our finished wooden staircase. In the summer, buy everyone in your household a pair of cheap flip-flops for indoors only, so you don't soil the bottoms of the soles,outdoors or just go barefoot. I do not have a wise answer for summer guests except to offer that you don't mind if they go barefoot to avoid slipping. Hope this helps.

Both Lowes and Home Depot sell them.

I've tried cleaning with soap liquid in warm water and just water on its own - but no luck! Any ideas? Sue from UK Answers: RE: Slippery Wood Floors Try using equal parts of good Ole' vinegar and water. Spray and mop. Good luck!!!! (03/29/2006) By Lorraine RE: Slippery Wood Floors Be careful about using furniture polish on your furniture. If it sprays over onto the floor it makes the floor slippery. Also, spray starch or sizing used when ironing makes that happen. I only use a Swiffer with a dollar store wet wipe on the bottom to clean my wooden floors. Its the best!
