You may not believe it, but some modern synthetic carpets now advise you to use bleach to clean your carpet. This diluted solution can pretty much instantly remove staining. However, it is important to understand that not all carpets can take a bleach solution. Some carpets will lose colour when bleach solutions are sprayed.
Wool carpets are also known for matting. This means that when you see a carpet stain or when you are carpets are dirty, you should not scrub them. If you scrub at a stain or dirt you will likely produce a matted area. This matted area is very likely to be a permanent problem. Your eye will be drawn to that area. It is therefore very important to blot stains on any wool carpet.
