Removal of red wine stains from carpet? Dried in

Step One

Blot the spill with paper towels or a clean cloth.

Step Two

Combine 1 teaspoon carpet shampoo (or dish soap, like Dawn) and 1 cup hydrogen peroxide in a small bowl. Soak a clean sponge in the mixture, squeeze it halfway dry, then gently blot the stain. Continue until the stain lifts.

Step Three

Sponge the stained area with warm water.

Step Four

Blot dry with a clean cloth or paper towels.

Tips & Warnings

Act immediately. The longer a stain sits, the harder it is to remove. Commerical products like Oxy Clean and Wine Away do an excellent job of removing red wine stains, but try this homemade version if you don’t have either of those on hand.

We recently purchased a home that apparently had a grouping of Ladybugs die under where they kept their bed. Bottom line is there is a nasty stain on the carpet now and rather than rip it up we’d like to give stain removal a shot.

Does anyone out there have any insight in what will get the stain out?
