Carpet Diem!

Well my carpet has several dirty affected areas. And for people who live in apartments who might not want to invest in carpet cleaning nor pay a fee, I have a possible solution. Some stains might not be so easy to  remove and we feel doomed that we don't  even bother to try to clean  those areas. So I decided to try some simple products to see if we can remedy stubborn stains. Lets find out how we did!

I used:
1 cup of warm water
2 cap sizes of peroxide
1/2 teaspoon of dish soap

First Vacuum your area.

I decided to focus the cleaning on these two spots so I could do a comparison on the rest of the spots.

I ran the brush in circular motion and decided to let the carpet dry.

Final Product

The carpet is better than it was before. I was fortunate to have light colored carpet to see the dirt and the difference in stains. Also I was a little scared with the peroxide but luckily the carpet was not damaged. I feel peroxide broke down the stains without causing any damage. I tried this cleaning method on berber carpet so be sure to test out a corner before applying to other types of carpet. I am pleased with this technique because I had all these home products and it stretches my dollar a little further. Maybe a little more peroxide or soap might do the trick next time.
