I spilled some red wine on my carpet Sunday night. I have used oxi clean and 409 stain remover, also I have tried my carpet shampooer. The stain is getting better. But does anyone have any other wonderful ideas?

This works best if you do it immediately. First, blot all excess with paper towel. Mix a few ounces of hydrogen peroxide with several drops (1 tsp) of liquid dish liquid in a spray bottles. Spray and blot until stain disappears. Works on white/light colored carpet, upholstery, clothing. Test on colored textiles and fabric in an inconspicuous area first.

Pour white wine over the stain. White wine will neutralize red wine and will make it easier to lift the color off of your carpet or clothing. Very gently blot the liquid up with a thick towel -do not to rub as this will force the stain into the carpet or clothing fibers. Then, either take your favorite carpet shampoo or clothing stain remover, and clean as you would it there was a bit of dirt on the carpet . Or, make a three parts baking soda to one part water mixture. Put this on the stain and let it sit until completely dry. Then, vacuum out completely. You can repeat this step

Try pouring some vodka on it and work it into the stain, then suck up the excess with you carpet shampooer. You can also try rubbing alcohol if you don't have any vodka. Neither one will leave a odor when dry.
