Answer 2

use" resolve"  i got it at walmart for bout $3 and it works---i spilled a cup of coffee on a white carpet--didnt know what to do--called carpet cleaning company and they said it wouldnt come up because coffee was a stain itself.---the stain set there over night then i heard about "resolve" used it--followed simple directions and it cleaned the spot--good luck

Answer 3

Get your maid to clean it up.

Answer 4

I've heard white vinegar works, but I can't confirm that

Answer 5

OXY CLEAN or Tide with bleach should take out the remaining sauce.  White carpet is NOT a good idea

Answer 6

dawn dish soap...dilute in a large bowl of water... try not to make it too suddzy ..pat on pat off..keep at it until the stain releases

i did this to a 5 day old spaghetti sauce stain on light gray carpet and it came right out

Answer 7

Stains on carpet usually fall into one of two categories - water based or greasy.  Tomato sauce is a water based stain and my favorite product for such clean up jobs (usually cat throw up in my case) is Woolite Heavy Traffic foam cleaner.  It's available in grocery stores in a blue spray can.  Just follow the directions on the can and you'll be back in Mom's good graces (always a good place to be).  

P.S.  If your stain is oil based, such as salad dressing, try K2r Spot-lifter.  Again, it's available in the grocery store in a blue and white spray can.  Just follow directions.  These two cleaners are all you'll ever need because if one or the other doesn't take out the stain, it's not coming out.

Answer 8

Use a carpet cleaner from the grocery store and try steam cleaning it.

Answer 9

if you go to the dollar store and there is a liquid cleaner called awsome! and it really is! it gets anything out! i got ink on my bed when my ped exploded and i used awsome and it got it right out! but make sure you rub it with water when you are done or it will leave a mark!

Answer 10

come clean to your mother ..................try to get the stain out  but it may need a rearrangement of the furniture ................what ever possessed your mom to buy white carpet before you'd left home all together!!!!????

Answer 11

Tonic works we got chocolate out of our couch.

Answer 12

Use Woolite with warm water and rub the area gently at first using a towel. Vacuum the excess to suck up the wet stain. For the small amount of water it will not harm your vacuum cleaner but I would replace the dust bag when you're done. Repeat as necessary.
