You will see a number of products on the market that can help yourself to get get rid of of spills rapidly. Each of these products range in uses and can be helpful once you bout all of them with the kind of splatter that in fact has occurred. Yourself can also utilize a mixture of fluids and vinegar to actually help you keep the marks out. Taking immediate act can help to stop seeks from becoming stains abandoning you having a clear carpeting.

Vinegar is not a carpet cleaning agent.  Most soil found in carpets is on the acid side of the ph scale, therefore we use a alkiline side cleaning agent to clean with. We do use a odourless vinegar type agent to neutralize the carpet in the final rinse process. Vinegar is an acid.
There are a million different alkiline cleaners available for carpet cleaning

Hey thanks a lot, but still i have a doubt. Is there any difference between normal vinegar and odourless. Can you suggest me some names of cleaners?

To ensure a continued lifespan of your rug deprived of any harm, cleaning and maintaining rugs is very important. There are various approaches that should be followed to maintain as well as clean your area rug. Cleaning the rug with natural cleaning products or with chemical cleaning agents will help your rug stay in a nice condition for a long time.

rugs with looped textures, vacuum clean the carpet regularly employing suction only. Avoid utilizing the going around beater bar. This will keep the loops from getting chipped. Vinegar is also effective in the cleaning of the rugs as it is known as the simplest way of cleaning an area rug.

Definitely ESL.  Are you the one that recommended I go after my Dell and put a saddle on it when I told you it was running?  When I said the computer was smoking you said is that a bad thing and then asked what it was smoking and finally bummer dude you got to fix that?  He or she doesn't read the replies and just keep on posting nonsense as if they had their brains on auto pilot.  Keep it up maxipad.   The only credibility you are establishing is that of someone who is a hack website promoter paid to increase rankings on Google.

What is it you are doing? If this is to clean your own carpet do what ever you want. If you are talking about professional carpet cleaners that is a different ball game, we would not use vinegar ever!!!!!

Google "carpet cleaning chemicals" and you will see vinegar did not make the list.

Vinegar is a natural disinfectant and deodorizer that will break apart the ammonia found in pet urine, and also destroy the odor caused by the urine. If you know where the pet urine stain is, drench with distilled white vinegar, let sit for a few minutes, then scrub into the area with a brush or cloth. If you are unsure where the pet urine stain is located, mix a sprayable solution of 1 cup white vinegar and 2 cups water in a spray bottle.

Using Vinegar with hot water in ones Solution Tank becomes a great natural cleaning agent. Works very well.

Best to all;

Vinegar seams to break down feces better than anything, spray it on, let it marinate a few minutes, rinse well, I do my share of work at retirement homes. It's pretty much your only hope in hell in getting stains out of wool rugs unless you know something I don't.
