Carpet Cleaning Expert Tips

If the stain remains after blotting, spray a mixture of one-part vinegar and one- part water onto the stain and let it sit for approximately 15 minutes, after which, blot the stain with a clean sponge. Ensure that the spot is cleaned with warm water after the stain removal, followed by drying.
  2. Un-grease with dishwasher detergent – Mix few drops of dishwashing liquid with a glass of water and spray it onto the stain, followed by blotting.
  3. Hydrogen peroxide to the rescue – If you have blood on your carpets due to a minor cut, wash up the blood stain with few drops of mild detergent mixed with water, which will get some blood of the surface. For a thorough cleaning, expose the blood stain to hydrogen peroxide and dab it away.
