Question My daughter was recently sick and she threw up a red popsicle onto my blue carpet. What should I use to get the stain out?
Answer I have a daughter too and would highly recommend getting a spot bot green machine. This is a compact spot removal system and it works excellent. As far as your immediate problem here are a couple of ideas that should work. DETERGENT SOLUTION:MIX 1 TABLESPOON OF DETERGENT WITH 1 CUP OF WATER LEMON JUICE SOLUTION: 1 TEASPOON OF LEMON JUICE WITH 2 TABLESPOONS OF WARM WATER put directly AMMONIA SOLUTION: MIX HALF CUP OF LUKEWARM WATER WITH 1 TABLESPOON OF DISH DETERGENT AND 1 TEASPOON OF AMMONIA. If mixing any of these place in
a sprayer for application purposes.
I would first try the detergent solution by BLOTTING the stain DO NOT RUB for this will spread the spot. Dampen the spot than blot do not over wet the area and let dry fully before reapplying. You may have to work on the spot but it should come out. Let me know if this works or if you have any more questions. Best regards Ken.
