After a walk in nature, your littlest one steps on your new rug with his dirty shoes. Now what? Don't panic. Following the following steps will get the mud stains out of your rug quickly.
There is one golden rule when dirt gets on your carpet and that is to get to it quickly. Mud, however,is an exception to this rule! In fact, you want to wait until the mud dries up before cleaning your carpet.
Step 1: Let the mud dry and scrape off
Let the mud on your rug dry first. Once it is dry, take a scraper or a flat object. With this you can easily scrape the hardened mud off the carpet.
Step 2: Lukewarm water with ammonia
Then take a cloth and wet it with lukewarm water. To this, add a tablespoon of ammonia. Gently dab over the mud stains without rubbing. Rubbing will only make the stain bigger. Continue dabbing gently for 1 minute until the stain is completely gone.
Step 3: Let it dry for a while
Finally, take a dry cloth and pat away the excess moisture. Then let your rug air dry and your rug will be stain-free again.
