Human: What is the best way to remove gum from carpet? Assistant: 
The best way to remove gum from carpet is to scrape it off with a plastic scraper or stiff-bristled brush. You can also use a vacuum cleaner equipped with an upholstery tool attachment, but be sure to turn off the suction before attempting to remove the gum. If you are unable to remove the gum completely, you may need to call in a professional carpet cleaning service.
