What is the best way to clean wool carpet with a tea stain?

Question

Accepted Answer

For a tea stain on wool carpet, act promptly. Blot the spill with a clean white cloth — do not rub, which can push the stain deeper and damage fibres. Work from the outside of the stain toward the centre to limit spreading. If required, lightly dampen the cloth with plain water and continue blotting, then use a dry cloth to absorb moisture and allow the area to air dry. Test any cleaning method on an inconspicuous area first and follow the carpet manufacturer’s care instructions. For valuable wool or woven carpets, seek professional cleaning advice or contact BCC for guidance.
