Now you are not just dealing with a standard spill but one that is damaging your carpet fibers. Make sure you know the best methods to remove the red carpet stains.

Green Co Carpet Cleaning & Restoration Lists Steps to Clean a Red Stain from Your Carpet

Salt on Red Wine or Juice Carpet Stains: One of the ways that you can clean a red juice stain from your carpet is with a household product that is in your cupboards. The problem that you will find with many stains that are liquid is that the liquid is there continuing to soak into the carpets. The liquid needs to be removed so that at the very least the stain will not continue to grow. This is where the salt method comes into play. It will work best when you catch the stain right away. You want to use salt to cover the spot fully. Then allow the salt to stay in place for about ten minutes so it can soak up the liquid. Then vacuum up the salt taking the red stain with it.
Homemade Carpet Stain Removers: Now that you have the majority of the liquid pulled away from the area you can work on cleaning the stain that remains. If you choose a bad method you can end up stretching and spreading the spot to a larger portion. You will need to get a clean wash cloth, warm water and a mild detergent. It is best to use a detergent that has already been tested on your carpet. Use the water and detergent to soak the area carefully. If you oversoak it the stain will start to run so take your time and work in small areas at a time if possible. Allow the cleaning solution to work for several minutes then you need to follow up with a clean cloth to dab the spot. This will pull the cleaner out of the carpet and the staining at the same time. You want to repeat the process until you are happy with the outcome.
