If keeping your carpets clean is a challenge, keep this in mind:
• Got mud prints on your carpet? Sprinkle salt on them. Leave it on for an hour, then vacuum.
• If candle or crayon wax falls on your carpet, place a paper bag bag over the wax, then iron over the bag. The wax will stick to the bag.
• To clean red wine from your carpet, scrub the stain with club soda. Or cover the stain with salt. Vacuum the residue. Still stained? Mix detergent, water and white vinegar, and wipe the stain.
