Cleaning Mud on Carpets

6/6/2019 (Permalink)

It's been a particularly wet spring.  Here's a little trick from Linda Cobb in "Talking Dirty with the Queen of Clean" on how to remove mud from your carpet.

"Cover wet mud with salt or baking soda and let dry thoroughly before touching.  Once it is dry, vacuum it using the attachment hose to concentrate the suction on the mud.  Use a good carpet spotter, following the directions, to complete the process.  For red dirt or mud, use a rust remover such as Whink or Rust Magic to remove any color residue.  Make sure you test the rust remover in a small area first." 

And of course if this doesn't work, you can always call the professionals at SERVPRO of Appleton.  Our carpet cleaning expert, Brent, can tackle some of the toughest stains.  He has been cleaning high profile commercial customers as well as residential customers for over 11 years.
