For liquid spills always blot the stained area immediately with either white paper towels or a white terry towel. Stay away from using colored towels to avoid transfer of dyes and remember to continually apply pressure until it appears that nothing else can be removed from the carpet. If you’ve tracked dirt from your shoes just dry vacuum as needed to avoid a potentially muddy situation. And finally, do not use soap or cleaning products containing emulsifiers, these can leave residue in your carpet that will attract more dirt to the stain, creating an even larger problem. Neutral spotters are always available through our company for free with any scheduled service.
