How to clean stain on a beige carpet? There are various stains on my carpet and I'd like to clean them all. The carpet is beige so I don't want to take chances with hardcore cleaning products, if possible more natural ones or homemade tips that won't risk discoloring the carpet. I think some of the stains could be oil, minor burns, food. I have already vacuumed over and tried to remove them with dishsoap and a water (did not work). What are some "conservative" approaches to attempting to cleaning these stains?
