Creative Ways To Take Stains Out Of Your Carpets

We understand how frustrating it is when your carpets get ruined by stains — they’re expensive to replace and not cheap to clean. But we’ve got some great solutions for you, many of which you might already have around the house. For example, Sprinkle baking soda on a carpet stain, leave it on for a few hours and then vacuum it up using a vacuum, like the Australian Industrial Vacuum.

Here are a few:

1.  Club Soda:

Worried with that tough stain over your carpet? Relax, just mix and prepare a mixture of club soda with a few drops of dish soap. Next, all you need to do is apply them gently on a clean cloth to clean your carpets.

2.  Cream of Tartar:

Yes, cream of tartar can also be a great option to consider for the carpet stain. Just sprinkle some on a carpet stain and rub it in. Leave it to sit for 30 minutes, then brush off the powder, which should have absorbed the stain.

3.  Tennis Balls:

Place a few tennis balls in a bag; seal the bag and leave it on the carpet overnight. The next day, vacuum up the tennis balls to remove the stain and other dirt.

4.  Vodka:

This may sound strange, but vodka is a great cleaning solution. First, pour some on the carpet and rub it in with a towel or paper towel. Let it sit for a few hours, then blot the alcohol with another damp towel.

5.  Bean Bag Chair:

If you live in an apartment and have no other option but to put your bean bag chair on the carpet (which stains easily), try this simple trick — put an old sheet over the chair before you fill it with beans.

6.  Cornmeal:

Lightly sprinkle some cornmeal on a stain and put crushed ice over it. Next, vacuum up the carpet with a vacuum cleaner such as Australian Industrial Vacuum while the ice melts, which will help dissolve the stain and get rid of it.

7.  White Vinegar:

This is naturally antibacterial and is great for taking out fresh stains from carpets. Mix equal parts vinegar and water, apply it directly to the stain, sit for an hour or so, and vacuum it up.

Other Things To Keep In Mind:

• It’s also important to take action quickly when there is a carpet spill.
• Blot the spill with a cloth or paper towel immediately after it happens, and then use cold water to dab up any moisture from the carpet.
