Follow this diy guide to choose the ideal flattening method for your particular area rug.
Straighten the rug.
If the rug is too large you can always rotate it as the edges flatten out.
Then remove the paper covering the adhesive and smooth the rug over the floor.
Flatten the rug by applying weight evenly and firmly.
Place the rug flat between your mattress and box spring.
Remove creases from a small rug.

This is a pretty efficient method that takes approximately 7 days to work.
Press the tape down firmly smoothing it as you go.
