Tips to Get Rid of Ice Cream Spills on Your Carpet

Carpets are great to have in your home. It adds a certain kind of comfort and beauty that you and your entire family will surely enjoy. But while it can be a nice accessory to have in any room, keeping it clean can be a tough job for any homeowner.

Carpets can become messy pretty easily. One of the main concerns that homeowners have is that spills can happen quite often and it can have nasty results such as stains on your beautiful carpet. One such problem that many carpet owners are having trouble with is dealing with ice cream spills. Ice cream can get spilled by kids playing around inside your house very commonly which can then be a challenge for the carpet owners to clean up. If you have trouble with ice cream spills on your carpet, here are a few tips to help you get rid of it effectively.

  • Clean It Up Right Away – This is one tip which can really help make it a lot easier to clean up the ice cream spill on your carpet. Cleaning the mess as soon as possible is vital in order to make cleaning up the ice cream spill more manageable. Try to quickly clean up the ice cream spill immediately to avoid having it spread to other areas of the carpet. Also, the ice cream melts so if you wait a long time before cleaning up the spill there will be a high chance that the melted ice cream will seep deeper into the carpet making it more problematic to remove.
  • Remove the Excess Ice Cream Using a Spoon – Before you can clean up the stain which the ice cream spill has caused, you should always try to clear up the area first. You will need to remove the excess ice cream on the carpet and in order to do this properly; you can make use of a spoon in order to carefully scoop up the spill. This will help clear the area and prepare it for the next step which is for you to deal with the stain or marks that it has left behind. Doing this quickly can make a big difference in being able to remove the spill properly and more easily.

Hopefully these tips will help you out in removing the ice cream spill on your carpet. Be sure to keep these in mind so that you won’t have a lot of trouble in dealing with this carpet cleaning problem.

We are in possession of a Chinese needlepoint done on silk that was given to my husband's parents in l938 by husband's father's brother, Uncle Richard, who was a missionary priest with the Passionist Fathers. He served in China from 1935 until he became a prisoner when China fell to communism and was imprisoned for seven years before his release. Over the years, this needlepoint (16" w x 48" long and framed) suffered what appeared to be rather severe water damage running about 15 inches from the top down. This piece had been made especially for Uncle Richard and was something that my husband has loved since he was a small boy. We contacted Vans Carpet Cleaning and they made an appointment to stop just to look at it. With no promise...Ernie took it with him and promised there would be no charge if it could not be cleaned. WELL....Ernie just brought it back to us and it looks WONDERFUL!!! I cried...my husband was speechless!! Ernie tried very hard as he knew the story. I asked him how long it took and he told us three hours with Q-tips!!! The cost $149.99 plus $50.00 to preserve it to prevent any future damage. We would have paid so much more!! And we smile every day as we look at it proudly hanging!! THANK YOU VANS CARPET CLEANING!!!

I recently hired Van’s Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning Service to clean my living room furniture and some oriental rugs and was thrilled with their service. I was very impressed with their responsiveness and attention to every detail as well as the excellent quality of their work. Customer service is not just a marketing slogan at Van’s. They really deliver and I highly recommend them.
