Six bright blue dots from the hall closet to the bathroom. I pulled the carpet cleaner out and went to work. I went over the spots probably a dozen times. This picture was actually taken AFTER I ran the carpet cleaner over the spot. Oh no!
I thought this was surely a lost cause--if the carpet machine didn't get it up, nothing would--but I wasn't ready to give up yet. I was out of spray carpet cleaner but I thought about the common household product I often use to clean the bathroom and kitchen...baking soda.
I tested on an inconspicuous spot to make sure it wouldn't ruin my carpet and it worked fine. I just put a little baking soda on the spot and scrubbed with water. For good measure, I ran the carpet cleaner over it a couple more times. Worked like a charm:
No more blue spot!
If you decide to try this, PLEASE test on a hidden spot first as I'm not sure what kind of effect it might have on other types of carpet.
