I want to second the carpet removal. When I first moved into an apartment with hardwood floors I was stunned at how much of a difference it made. For 8 years I traveled for work and stayed in a huge variety of carpeted, hardwood, and partially carpeted sleeping arrangements. No carpet for the win. When you do go no carpet, vacuum bots become even more important because there’s nothing to hold the dust down. Vacuum bots can get it done when you’re not home. I currently have carpet in my apartment bedroom (though not in the rest of the apartment). I bought an elevate frame for storage and it seems to have had a similar effect. When I first started traveling I would buy a mattress and put on the floor of the temp rental (3-6 month contracts). In mg mind it didnt matter if I had a full frame since I couldn’t take it with me anyway. I learned very quickly that I needed to raise the bed at least a few feet for allergies. The raised frame really helps compensate if you can’t get ride of the carpet in the mean time.
