Tipping Tuesday
I have 5 kids which translates to a lot of cleaning. And the little rugrats can't seem to grasp the concept that red Kool-Aid does not belong on my carpet. So until I make them understand I had to find a solution to save my sanity and not put me further into the poorhouse. By golly I think I've got it! Hydrogen peroxide. Yep. That stuff you can get in the dollar store in the brown bottle. I read it on some web site, and thought I'd try it and was pleasently surprised. I put some in a spray bottle, sprayed the spill and blotted it up with a white towel and presto, no more red juice on my carpet. A couple of spills I let sit long enough (okay, I couldn't find a clean white towel) and it disappeared withno further assistance from me. It's cheap and it works, what more can you ask for?

Peroxide is also good for “bloody stains” before washing.
