For food and beverage stains, act quickly. Blot the stain with a clean cloth or paper towel to soak up excess liquid. Then, mix a solution of one part white vinegar and one part water and blot the stain gently.

To tackle pet stains:<\/p>

  1. Start by blotting the area to remove as much moisture as possible.<\/li>
  2. Apply a mixture of water and white vinegar to the stain and blot again.<\/li>
  3. Finish by sprinkling baking soda over the area, letting it sit for a few hours, and then vacuuming it.<\/li><\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Oil and grease stains can be tricky. Blot up excess oil with paper towels, then sprinkle baking soda or cornstarch on the stain to absorb the remaining oil.

    Mud and dirt stains are usually dry when you notice them. Start by allowing the dirt to dry completely, then vacuum the area to remove loose soil.
