For large stains, work from the outside of the stain to the center to prevent spreading.

Mix a solution of 1/4 teaspoon of clean hand dish soap washing detergent with 1 cup of water. Stir gently.

Apply detergent solution directly to a white cloth. Dampen the fibers in the stained area with the cloth. Avoid saturating the carpet.

Wipe gently. Turn cloth frequently. Never rub, scrub or use a brush. This may damage the carpet fibers.

If necessary, use your fingertips to work the solution to the base of the stain.

Wet the stained carpet fibers with clean, lukewarm water to rinse.

Cover the spot with an absorbent white or paper towel and apply pressure.

Repeat rinsing and blotting until all traces of the detergent have been removed.

If the stain is gone, place an absorbent white or paper towel over the cleaned area and weigh towel down with a heavy, color fast object, such as a weighted plastic wastebasket.

Change towels until carpet is dry.

If stain remains, proceed to step two.

Step two
Do not use on coffee, tea or urine stains.
Mix two tablespoons of non-bleaching, non-sudsing household ammonia with 1 cup lukewarm water.

Apply ammonia solution, rinse and blot as outlined in Step One.

Do not dry with paper towels. Proceed to Step Three to neutralize the ammonia solution.

Step Three
Mix 1 cup of white vinegar with 2 cups cold water.

Apply vinegar solution, rinse and blot as outlined in Step One.
