Carpet cleaning!!! Bye bye stains!

If you have a child like mine, you feel like laying down plastic wrap all over your floors to keep them clean. Realistically who would really do that?? Hopefully after a few tips you won't even secretly consider it! So tip # 1 a scoop of your favorite laundry soap and hot water. Remember to always test an area first to make sure you don't cause more damange than you began w/. Get a little/large hard bristle brush and go to work. Tip # 2 1/2 a cup of baking soda for a half gallon of hot water!use the same type of brush. # 3 peroxide!! This works best for new stains that are red!!! Such a life saver! As soon as your little one spills juice start the pouring of the peroxide(ONLY on like color carpet)! I always just pour and dab w/ clean dry cloth after. Now just so you all know these are methods that have worked for ME on Lighter carpet colors. Hopefully it can help a few of you out! If you do try them (at your own risk) let me know what kind of results you've had. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!!
