At some point in our lives we have or will have an unfortunate run-in with Red Wine. Its great to drink (if that’s your tipple), though it can be difficult to clean if spilled on a carpet.In this article we shall explore the natural options that are available.

The first thing that you would need to do as soon as possible once the wine has taken residence in your carpet is mop up the excess. Just make sure you dab. Do not under any circumstances rub the stain, it will only make it worse. You can then also add white wine and or salt to the stain to neutralise it and dab out the excess.

For the more intense stains try applying a thick paste of baking soda and water (about the consistency of wall paper paste) to the spillage. Wait for that to dry then hoover the excess. These few hints and tips should help you keep your carpet in good order, without the use of harmful chemicals or cleaning agents.
