Even the most beautiful and expensive carpet can stop pleasing the eye if dirty stains appear on it.
An effective way to remove stubborn stains is a homemade mixture of two cheap and accessible ingredients.
If you have grease, juice or drink stains on your carpet, the first thing you should do is quickly soak up the liquid with paper (you can use paper towels or toilet paper).
If you don't have paper at hand, use another absorbent material, such as a kitchen towel. Don't press on the area where the stain appeared, but gently place the material so that it absorbs the liquid.
If the stain is very greasy, you can sprinkle it with talc or potato starch. Then, you need to leave the talc or potato starch on the stain for a whole day.
They will draw out the remaining fat from the threads, and you can remove the powder from the surface of the carpet, for example, using a vacuum cleaner.
A mixture of vinegar and baking soda is a solution for particularly stubborn stains.
A mixture of vinegar and baking soda will remove particularly stubborn stains, such as coffee, wine or red juice. How to make a dirt remover? Mix a glass of vinegar and two heaped tablespoons of soda with half a liter of water.
Then the preparation must be thoroughly mixed. To facilitate application, the solution can be placed in a spray bottle. After drying, simply vacuum.
Baking soda can help eliminate unpleasant odors
Another property of baking soda is worth mentioning. The action of sodium bicarbonate will be useful for removing not only stains (in combination with vinegar), but also unpleasant odors.
After using baking soda, your carpet will start smelling nice again.
You can supplement the standard effect of sodium bicarbonate by adding essential oil with your favorite scent, such as rose.
The combined mixture can be left on the carpet in the chosen place for half an hour and then vacuumed. The unpleasant smell will disappear and the room will be filled with a fresh aroma.
