You can use a spot remover, but it might be better for the carpet, kids, and pets if you use a carpet steam cleaner that uses hot water. This will melt the glue and remove it easily.

What will remove carpet tape glue out of carpet?

You need to be a bit more specific. If you are talking about an adhesive type tape, (duct, binding, or strapping tape), there are several commercial solvents available that will remove any residual glue. (Goop, Goo Gone, etc) If you are referring to the thermoplastic seam tape designed to hold sections of carpet together then no there is no solvent that will dissolve the adhesive. A professional will try one (or more) of three methods to remove seam tape residue. 1) Heating the glue will bring it back to a liquid state you can then try to wick it into a soft cloth or series of paper towels 2)Cut out the section of carpet & replace it with a patch 3)With a razor knife scrape the glue carefully from the carpet fibers Note that all three of these methods carry risks to both you & the carpet you're working on. Unless you know what you're doing call a professional. You're much better off hiring someone to do a small repair rather than paying to replace an entire room of carpet

It is generally not a recommended procedure. The abrasion of carpet on carpet will cause both layers to wear prematurely. Certain types of glue down carpet can be installed over existing glue down carpet. Check the manufactures installation instructions.
