Kiesha just threw up on a cream colour carpet, great :rolleyes:
Now dont get me wrong she was kind enough to lick it all up but its still a nasty stain.
Ive tried that vanish foam stuff but its still there, tips on a stain removal please if you have any?

Yuck.
Try applying some white vinegar to the stain, let it set a minute or so and then blot it up with towels.
I came across this:
Dawn dish washing detergent (a few drops in a cup of water) makes a decent carpet stain remover. It works especially well on greasy stains (maybe a teaspoonful to a cup of water). Use the original blue Dawn, and follow the process outlined above.
If you don't have Dawn out there I would say try any good liquid dishsoap. Make the solution like it says and apply to the stain, scrub with a rag and blot up.
I hope one of those works for you.

Thanks Red, will try it. Sometimes they say liquid soaps can set the stain in & thats why i was worried to try it.

LOL awesome solution :wah:
The white vinegar and water trick is a great tip. Another good tip that has worked for me is to use club soda:
Club Soda gets stains out of carpets really well - eg. wine, when your dog vomits on the carpet. Pour the club soda on the stain and let it sit for a few seconds, then soak up using pressure.
