Yes.
The average life of a carpet in a rental is 10 years. However, some areas have laws in place that require landlords to change out carpet whenever a tenant moves out.
Laws regarding carpet replacement by landlords vary by jurisdiction, but generally, landlords are not legally required to replace carpets between tenants unless they are deemed uninhabitable or violate health and safety codes. However, many landlords choose to replace or clean carpets to maintain property value and attract new tenants. Lease agreements may specify the condition of the property and any obligations related to maintenance. Tenants should check local housing laws and their lease terms for specific rights and responsibilities regarding carpet maintenance.
There are no laws in Minnesota directly pertaining to the carpeting, but landlords are required to keep the property in a state of "reasonable repair."
The part that gets sprayed will get bleached, and depending on the color of the carpet and the amount/concentration of bleach, you could have a nasty and irreparable blotch on the carpet. There would be no way to restore the carpet's original color, but you may be able to find some kind of matching color to apply to the spot that would be better than the bleach mark, or perhaps you could do some creative re-placement of furniture.

It really depends on the age and condition of the carpet. Seven years is about average, but good carpets can last 15.
The Tiny Charged Particles from atoms are responsible for everything from keeping the lights on (and the computer your using) to getting shocked by a doorknob after rubbing your feet on a carpet.
No. If your carpet was damaged by a covered peril. Your insurance policy is only responsible for repair or replacement of the damaged part with like kind and quality. Their is no coverage for cosmetic aesthetics or exact match issues.
That depends on if damage was present when the tenant moved in, the length the tenant resided there, the type and level of damage caused. If the tenant lived there 15 years and the carpet had been there 10 years before the tenant moved in, that would be reasonable wear and tear as the carpet is 25 years old.
Homeowners should do their best to keep their carpet nice and clean. Carpeting is one of the first things that a visitor notices, and a filthy or damaged carpet sends the message that the occupant isn't responsible or put together. Smoking can have a tremendous negative impact, because it's not uncommon for smokers to accidentally flick ashes on the carpet. That's why smokers should use coffee tables, as a minimum requirement. In order to safeguard your carpet completely, all smoking should be done outside. Another helpful tip: the shorter the carpet, the less work it is to keep the carpet clean.
