Steps:

1.   Blot the stain with the help of light colour towel or a cotton cloth to remove all excess wet and dry material. Keep blotting until no excess material is being absorbed by the towel. It is better to blot the stain from outward to inward so that it may not spread more.

2.   Spray the water on the stain and blot the stain as did in step one. Repeat this procedure until no more stain is absorbed by the towel/cloth.

3.   Mix a small amount of detergent with water in a small cup. Apply it on the stain with the help of towel/cloth and blot it. Repeat this procedure until no more stain is absorbed by towel/cloth.

4.   If the stain is still present, make a paste of baking soda and water, like the consistency of a tooth paste. Apply it on the stain and let it to dry. When it is fully dried vacuum it away. The stain hopefully would be gone.

5.   If stain still not removed make a mixture of white vinegar and water in the ratio of 1 by 2. Spray this mixture on the stain and blot it as usual.

6.   If your stain is too stubborn and is not removed by applying all these steps, still the game is not over. There are number of commercial products available in market which will surely remove the stain. You can search one of them in the market and apply it on the stains

7.   When the stain is fully removed place a dry towel on it. Pressed it gently so that all the extra moisture is absorbed.

8.   After that vacuum the carpet so that the carpets texture is restored.

Tips and Warnings:

1.   Do only blotting. Avoid rubbing or scrubbing, this will spread the stain on the carpet.

2.   If you can’t deal with fresh stain right away spread the salt over the stain. Salt will absorb the moisture along with the pigment causing the stain.

3.   Using a clean white cloth for blotting is best.
