Dear Queenie,
I love to have people visit me in my house, but I hate it when they track in mud and sand and whatever on their shoes and I have a big mess to clean up.
Queenie, is it okay to ask them to take off their shoes before they come in?—Neat Nelly
Dear Nelly,
It is okay to ask, especially if you give them slippers to wear inside.
However, it would be much easier if you have big doormats both outside and inside your front door so they have plenty of chance to wipe off their shoes before they come in. And try to keep the path leading up to your door as clean as possible.
