[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 458590, member: 11791"] You have the right to know what is causing the spots. At least here, landlord has to ensure that it passes WHMIS... so, you have the right to know that it isn't engine oil, for example, or anything else non-healthy. There's been cases of a place being passed of as "smoke free"... and the carpet was full of tar from cigarette smoke. They had it "well cleaned" - and no smell left - did a good job covering everything with paint and so on... BUT... landlord had to replace the carpets because it was advertised as "smoke free"... and what was in the carpets was not "smoke free". It doesn't matter what color the carpets are... the spots are a problem. Even if they are hardly visible, spots attract dirt. UGH. [/QUOTE]
