bicarb for cleaning carpets???

i thought i read on here somewhere not long ago about using bicarb to clean carpets??

you sprinkled it on brushed it in and then vaced 30min later or something

but new mummy brain i cant remember if it was bicarb or not or something else..

please help..

I managed to set a stain in my pale grey carpet using bicarb so I personally wouldn't do it. Get a professional carpet cleaner in.

yep thats it
if its a wet stain just use bicarb if its a dry stain add vinager to it

well thats what we do anyway

just dirt from traffic in and out of teh bedrooms..

we have white carpets anyway..

if its dirt sprinkle the bicarb on and get some vinger in a spray bottle and spray it over the top - leave it for about 10-15mins and kind of rub it a little and if need be add more bicarb/vinger and vac off we've used it on our carpet a fair bit - and they're a pinkish color. it also helps for vomit stains and cat chunder!

I used bicarb and water to get red straight cordial out of beige carpet.
The main issue i had was that it worked too well - it didnt take colour out but the spots are now so clean they are very obvious in the rest of the carpet.

thank you ladies..
will try it later, bubbs needs changing...and cuddling lol
always an excuse to get out fo house work
