A splash, a drip or a spill. No matter how they get there, fruit juice stains on your carpet could be a long-lasting eye sore. But don't worry, like most carpet stains, with a little effort, you can remove that fruit juice stain and you won't have to ban colored beverages from your home. This video gives you easy to follow instructions on cleaning up a the stain. So take a deep breath and just follow these simple steps.

No time to watch? Here are the basics:

Step 1: Blot up excess spill.

Step 2: Apply detergent solution (see "Cleaning Solutions"), use damp towel, and leave 3-5 minutes.

Step 3: Blot-don't rub.

Step 4: Apply white vinegar (undiluted), using a damp towel.

Step 5: Blot again. Finish by weighing down a half-inch thick pad of white paper towels to absorb all the moisture. Leave overnight if necessary.

Be prepared for any stain. Don’t forget to download the Stain First Aid App.
