Okay I am starting with the Three most painful ones I can think of, Bleach, Mustard and Rust.
Bleach: Bleach stains are well it's bleach, it has bleached the color out of the carpet and there is no stain to remove. That is harsh I realize but the bleached spot cannot be removed since the dye has actually been removed out of the carpet. Your best course of action here is Three possibles: 1) you find a Carpet Cleaning Company that can dye your carpet or 2) have the effected area cut out of the carpet and replaced that area. Or 3) Call in the installers and get in flooring.
Mustard: This depends on the type of mustard it is greatly. Get out the Wet/Dry Vac. Using water water I want you to try using the Vac and water to flush the mustard out. Remember this is one of the hardest strains to remove. Dab the area to help left the stain. Never ever RUB the mustard. you will just make the stain larger. Now a great product I have come across for lifting stains is Winning Colours. Most of the Time you will find this product in the Paints department of a home reno supply store.
This is there site http://www.winningbrandscorporation.com/
This stuff is for removing paint out of carpet so heads up on this stuff. It works wonders when you are detailing your car too. And again I was not paid for witing this Blog. This stuff just is that good. Oily grease stains that is the stuff to use people.Okay back to the Mustard. This is a stain that is difficult and try to get it out but if it fails and you even try having the carpet cleaned and it remains, the only solution is to cut out the stain and replace the area with a patch. Or call in the Carpet installers and get new Carpet all together. Of course there is the option of moving around the furniture and forgetting about it.
Rust: If it is a fresh stain get out the Wet/Dry Vac and say Oxyclean premix or a number of other general Carpet cleaning products including Winning Colours. If this fails, call in the Professionals. Many Professional Carpet Cleaning companies can remove almost all rust stains but the chemicals they use to do are somewhat hazardous for casual usage. Keep this inmind though if anyone in your home can not take stronge chemicals.
If this fails, then just look at the last resort of stain removel... Removing the carpet it's self or at least the effected area of the carpet.
Good luck with these Three stains. Life happens and stains happen. A house with children, isn't a home unitl it has those stains you get to put a story to someday. Keep that inmind.
