Mix one tablespoon of white vinegar with one tablespoon of dish soap and two cups of warm water in a spray bottle or small bowl. Alternatively, for lighter stains, a 1:1 ratio of white vinegar and water can be used. Lightly spray or dab the solution onto the stain, being careful not to oversaturate the carpet. Allow it to sit for 5-10 minutes. Then, blot the treated area with a clean, dry white cloth, working from the outside in. Repeat the application and blotting process until the stain is gone.
