To remove henna stains from carpet, act quickly. Sprinkle baking soda on the stain and let it sit. Blot the area gently with a mix of one part laundry detergent and three parts water. Rinse with cold water. For tough stains, use rubbing alcohol or vinegar. Always blot; never rub to maintain carpet integrity.
Next, mix a solution of one tablespoon dish soap and two cups of cold water. Dampen a cloth in this solution and blot the stained area again. Work from the outside in to prevent the stain from spreading. Once you see progress, switch to a clean, damp cloth. Rinse the area by blotting with water to lift any soap residue.
If the stain persists, create a paste of baking soda and water. Apply it to the stain and let it sit for a few hours. Afterward, vacuum the area to remove the dried paste.
Finally, if the stain remains, consider using a store-bought carpet cleaner specifically designed for stain removal. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Once you’ve successfully removed the henna stain, it’s essential to clean and maintain the carpet to prevent future stains. Let’s explore effective carpet cleaning methods next.
