Does anyone look at the Amazon reviews before posting these items? The last few have had a HUGE share of negative feedback. Why not recommend a product that has more than 50% good reviews ANYWHERE on the web?

Will it also be easy to remove, and leave no trace on the surface below?
If you leave it on for a while, the adhesive might damage the surface, the surrounding areas might be significantly darker because the strip or the adhesive might filter out a certain portion of the light, and/or prevent the normal wear and tear of the surface. That might be ok, but it’s something to think about before adding dick-shaped areas of non-slip tape to your wooden living room floor in your rented apartment.

OMG the person in the photo was wearing shoes with no socks! I’m traumatised, I tell you, traumatised. Where was the trigger warning for that, eh, BoingBoingShop?
Also, ‘Monkey Grip’? Who needs to grip a monkey? Why? Does it even work on monkeys? Sigh - it’s all too much for me.

I am quite famous for impersonating people who put shapes under the rug.
Uhm, no. There is no urban recycling program that accepts sticky tape for recycling. I think the word you’re looking for is “reused.”
Having slippery floors or vertical surfaces
