15 MINS | EASY | 6 STEPS
WHAT YOU'LL NEED
Dry stain with cloth
Dry the stain with a cloth or paper towel.
Treat area with cold water
Treat the area with cold water - avoid using hot water as it may make the stain harder to remove.
Dab from the outside in
Never rub or wipe, as doing so could potentially damage the rug and make the stain worse.
Cover with paper towel
Once the stain has been successfully removed, put paper towel down to cover the area.
Vacuum area
Once dry, vacuum the rug.
Alternatively, if this process did not work, you could try again with dish soap, vinegar or non-bleach laundry detergent.
