Spot Removal Tips

Carpets can add a lot of texture, color, and style to a room, but they can also stain very easily. This is a concern for anyone who has carpets in any room of their home and can many times deter people from choosing carpets. Carpet cleaning does not have to be difficult, though. Below, we have gathered some of the best spot removal tips for carpets.
 

Probably the most useful tips when it comes to stain removal is to act quickly. By not allowing stains to set, you will be preventing all manner of further issues. Most of the time, applying a certain chemical or substance to the stain as soon as it happens can make all of the difference.

One of the most common mistakes that people make when cleaning a carpet is to try to rub the stain out. This can make it spread and can even cause it to set in deeper into the fibers. It is important to blot the stain with the recommended liquid, like dish soap.

Use Shaving Cream

A great option to get rid of stains in carpets is to use shaving cream. Many of the toughest stains are easily managed with shaving cream. Carpet cleaning companies recommend applying the shaving cream directly on the stain and letting it sit for half an hour before blotting it away.

Hydrogen Peroxide

If drops of blood stained the carpet in your home, the best option for stain removal is to use hydrogen peroxide. Peroxide breaks down the blood, creating a foam that you can easily wipe away. For the best results, try to loosen up the stain first with a little water and dish detergent.

These are some of the best spot removal tips that anyone who has carpets in their home needs. By acting quickly when a stain occurs and by blotting instead of rubbing the stain, most of them will come off without too much trouble.
