How to Remove Stains from Your New Rug


Introduction
Staining a carpet is a common mishap, often caused by food, drinks, paint, kids, or pets. Fortunately, there are effective methods to tackle tough stains. Before applying any solution, always test it on an inconspicuous area to ensure it won't damage the carpet's color or fabric. Below are tips for removing some common stains.

Blood Stains


Using Water, Ammonia, and Dish Detergent:
1. Blot the blood stain with a white paper towel.
2. Mix 1/2 cup of cool water with 1 tablespoon of clear ammonia. Spray the solution on the stain, avoiding the backing.
3. Blot with a paper towel to remove moisture.
4. Combine 1 quart of cool water with 1/4 teaspoon of dish detergent (without bleach or lanolin).
5. Spray the mixture onto the stain, blot, and then rinse with cool water.
6. Cover with paper towels and place a heavy object on top to absorb remaining moisture.

For stubborn stains, apply 3% hydrogen peroxide and let it sit for an hour. Repeat the last step if needed.

Using Hydrogen Peroxide and Boiling Water:
1. Pour hydrogen peroxide on the stain.
2. Blot with a clean white cloth, then follow with boiling water. Blot again until the stain disappears.

Gum Removal


Using Peanut Butter:
1. Apply a spoonful of peanut butter to the gum.
2. Mix with a spoon and let sit for three minutes.
3. Rub and pick with a wet rag, then wash the area with a clean cloth.

Using Ice:
Place ice over the gum until it hardens. Once brittle, it should be easier to remove.

Using Lighter Fluid or WD-40:
Apply, let sit briefly, then wipe away. Persistence may be required.

Wax Removal


Using Lighter Fluid:
Apply lighter fluid, let sit, and wipe the wax away.

Using a Warm Iron and Damp Cloth:
1. Scrape off excess wax once dried.
2. Place a damp white cloth over the wax and apply a warm iron.
3. The steam will lift the wax onto the cloth. Repeat as necessary.

Grease Stains


Using Water, Ammonia, and Soap:
1. Mix equal parts water and ammonia, adding a few drops of liquid soap.
2. Spray on the stain and use a wet vacuum to remove it. Repeat as needed.

Alternatives:
- Paint thinner: Apply and scrub with a toothbrush.

- Pine-Sol: Use a toothbrush to scrub.

Ink Stains


Using Non-Aerosol Hair Spray:
Apply to the ink stain and blot with a white towel. Repeat as needed.

Lipstick Stains


Using Ivory Soap:
Rub with a warm, wet cloth until the stain disappears.

Coffee and Tea Stains


Using Soda Water:
Pour onto the stain and blot dry, repeating until gone.

Red Wine Stains


Using Soda Water or Salt:
- Pour soda water and blot.
- Apply salt to absorb the wine and then vacuum.

Juice and Kool-Aid Stains


Using Salt or a Peroxide Mixture:

- Mix hydrogen peroxide and a small amount of dish detergent, apply, and blot.

Pet Stains


Using Rubbing Alcohol, Baking Soda, or Vinegar:
