How to Remove Carpet Stains

Ketchup drips. Chocolate drops. Wine spills. If the party's at your place, expect a festive, colorful carpet after your last guest has gone home. If you act fast, you'll keep common carpet visitors from taking up permanent residence in your home. First things first: Blot (don't soak) or spoon up the excess, then try the remedies below. Use a plastic bucket or old plastic container to create the solutions described.
For other carpet or rug stains, see How to Remove Wax From Carpeting, How to Remove Chewing Gum From Carpeting, How to Remove Bleach Spots From Carpeting, How to Remove Pet Stains and How to Remove Burn Marks on Rugs.

3) Blot with detergent solution of 1 tsp. dishwashing liquid and 1 cup (8 fl oz/250 ml) warm water. Work from outside of stain toward center. Let sit 5 minutes.
4) Sponge with warm water until detergent disappears. Cover with plain white paper towels to absorb liquid overnight.
5) Vacuum or brush when dry to restore texture.
