Is It A Spot Or A Stain?

Tip of the week: A spot is not a stain and vis-versa!
A spot (on your carpet or furniture) is a concentrated substance that can be easily treated/cleaned, whereas a stain is also a concentrated substance but has dyed, bleached or damaged your carpet/furniture. There you are, now you know, just in case you have spent years wondering but were too scared to ask...
Most stains will be able to be cleaned up -if you are quick-like red wine etc. However, by leaving them you will have to apply some time to get them out of your furnishings. This may require the purchase of a commercial product specific to that type of spot. However, if there is a synthetic dye within the substance this may cause you problems (and this is when it is classified as a stain) in removal: patience and the right commercial product is essential. To reiterate the point 'Time is of the essence'; the quicker you deal with the problem the easier the spot can be removed, even if you only get around to tackling it the next morning/day should be ok.  

The longer it is left the more likely you will need a professional with a box of tricks (solutions etc).

Stay clean.
