Before concrete and asphalt driveways, sidewalks and streets, (in the
Old days) it was customary to remove shoes for obvious reasons. I do not ask guests to my home to remove their shoes. Their socks/feet could carry more germs and issues than their shoes.

If its an issue for you, provide your guests with easy slip on booties to put over their shoes.
I have read where barefoot is "bad" and worse than wearing your shoes on your floors & carpet. Best half is barefoot just about all the time in the house. I will hush!
