Carpet Stains
Carpet stains can be quite unsightly and effect the look of the entire d้cor. While many people offer different advices on how to remove the stain, the wrong advice can prove quite expensive on the pocket and of course on the carpet. At such a time carpet-cleaning-tips.com can prove of help with a siteload of useful, time-tested and tried methods. The site invites responses from its readers and new ideas on how to remove stains in the simplest methods possible.

Types of Carpet Stains
There are as many kinds of stains, as there are types of household items and chemicals. In a nutshell, stains can be caused from thousands of things. These can include candlewax stains, bloodstains, ketchup stains, furniture polish stains, grease stains, nail polish stains and ink stains to name a few. While tips are available for stain removal, most do not cater the specific stain. In such situations, this site offers a gamut of advice on each kind of stain and how it must be tackled.

Carpet Stain Removal Ideas
You may laugh, but stain removal is an art. The process of removing a stain changes not just with the change in the stain causing substance but also with the age of the stain. For example, removing a fresh bloodstain involves a process much different from removing an year old bloodstain. For most stains, the site cites the ivory bar soap as a miracle worker. Also ideas and suggestions from readers are constantly invited to make the site more informative, interactive and fun.

Carpet Care Tips
A few tips on caring for carpets can go a long way in preventing stains from occurring and enhancing the life of the carpet. The site lists popular and easy carpet care tips to ensure that your expensive and dear mat stays in the new look for a longer time. The site also lists carpet care tips before removing stains. Often overlooked, the importance of testing the effect of the stain remover on a small patch is highlighted here. Tips on rubbing stains, using bleach safely and using strong chemicals are also given.

Home Carpet Stain remedies


Got a stain but no spot cleaner? Try a few of these homemade-cleaner ideas:

Vinegar solution: 1 part white vinegar to 1 part water.

Detergent solution: 1 teaspoon of clear, non-bleach dishwashing detergent for every 32 ounces of water.

Baking soda: helps absorb grease stains.

Club soda: Mom always told you this will get out practically anything.
