Whether it’s a spilled cup of coffee or a glass of red wine, at some point everyone has experienced the hassle of stains on their carpet. Lucky for you, the team at Pure Clean Adelaide have compiled a list of the most common and pesky carpet stains, and how to remove them with ease!

So get ready to discover the secrets behind pristine carpets and why Pure Clean is your best bet for professional carpet cleaning in Adelaide.

So What Are The Most Common Types of Carpet Stains?

• Red Wine

• Coffee and Tea

• Grease and Oil Spills

• Pet/Animal Urine

• Chocolate

• Blood

• Vomit (Gross, We Know!)

• Ink

• Red Wine : Grab a cloth, mix some mild detergent with water, and give that stain a gentle scrub. It may take a considerable period of time to get all that colour out, but be patient and it’ll work wonders!
  

• Coffee and Tea: This one is usually a lot easier than people think! Simply blot away with a vinegar-water mix, then hit it with a mild detergent solution.
  

• Grease and Oil Spills: Sprinkle on some baking soda, let it chill, and then vacuum away the mess. We recommend going over the affected area after clean up with a light detergent wash, and deodorizer (if you have one available).
  

• Pet Urine Stains: Blot up as much urine as possible with paper towels and mix together a solution of white vinegar and water (1:1 ratio). Dab the stain with the vinegar solution using a clean cloth. Sprinkle baking soda over the area and let it sit for a few hours to neutralize odors. Vacuum the area once it's dry.
  

• Chocolate Stains: Scrape off excess chocolate with a butter knife or spoon. Mix a solution of mild dish soap and warm water. Dab the stain with a clean cloth soaked in the soapy solution, working from the outer edge toward the center. Blot with a clean, damp cloth to remove soap residue.

• Blood Stains: Act quickly! Blot as much blood as possible with a clean cloth or paper towel. Mix cold water with a small amount of salt to make a paste. Apply the paste to the stain, let it sit for a few minutes, and then blot with a clean, damp cloth. For stubborn stains, hydrogen peroxide (3%) can be used on light-colored carpets – test in an inconspicuous area first to ensure you don’t inadvertently damage your carpet.
  

• Vomit Stains: Remove solid particles carefully with a spoon, spatula or paper towel. Mix a solution of white vinegar and water (1:1 ratio). Blot the stain with the vinegar solution using a clean cloth. Sprinkle baking soda on the area, let it sit for a few hours, and then vacuum.

• Ink Stains: Blot the stain immediately with a clean, dry cloth or paper towel to absorb as much ink as possible. Dab the stain with rubbing alcohol using a clean cloth. Do not rub to avoid spreading the ink. Blot the area with a damp cloth to remove the alcohol. For water-based ink, a mixture of water and mild dish soap can be used.
