Have to try this!!!
From Diamond Sonya Swan:
Sooo... here's a hack that I just discovered. Hoping it will be helpful for some of you out there!
We have had this stain in one of our guest bedrooms for a LONG time. We've tried Thieves Household cleaner, hydrogen peroxide, and other natural carpet cleaners and we've had the carpets cleaned three times professionally since this stain appeared. The last carpet cleaner told me we would just have to replace the carpet at some point. We were covering up the biggest stain with a throw rug. Ugh!
We have no idea what it was, but it looked like a stain from a sports drink or Kool-aid from one of our guests. It was a HUGE oval stain and there were several around this bedroom.
After listening to a friend talk about the enzymatic action of the Thieves Fruit and Veggie Wash, I thought... why not try it?
So I rubbed some into the stain with my fingers (didn't want to waste any of it on a rag) and left it for 24 hours. I came back and it was GONE! Eeek! (That was the right side)
So then I wondered if the small spray bottle (which is a different formulation) would work as well? I sprayed it on the other side of the big oval stain and 24 hours later... wha la! It was gone too!
I left the middle just long enough so I could take a picture of the difference.
I'm in the process of trying it on various other types of stains... but even if it just takes out these ones... I'm ecstatic!
Next time the carpet cleaner comes... I am sooo giving him a bottle of this to experiment with! ;) I also wonder if it would work as well diluted a bit. So much future experimenting to do with this!
