How to clean grease out of carpet

1. Sprinkle baking soda or borax on the grease stain. Allow to sit for a few minutes to soak up some of the grease.
2. Vacuum the baking soda or borax from the spot. Be careful not to rub at the stain with your vacuum.
3. Repeat steps one and two, several times until the stain is not noticeable. It will not be completely removed at this point but the bulk of the grease will have been absorbed and removed.
4. Place a few drops of grease cutting dish washing detergent on the stain and pour a small amount of water on the spot also.
5. Rub in a circular motion with a cotton cloth until you notice the grease coming out onto the cloth. Keep switching to clean areas on the cloth or get a new cloth when this one is completely dirty.
6. Rub the stain until your cloth is no longer picking up grease. Don't add too much soap or it will be difficult to remove the entire soap residue.
7. Add water and soak up the soap residue with an old towel or cotton cloth. If all the soap is not removed you will be able to see the difference in the texture of the carpet. Keep adding water and soaking it up until all of the soap is removed.
