This is in particular true if your dining area is carpeted.

Fortunately, we have you covered. Keep reading below to learn how you can effectively get rid of oil stains from carpets.

Blotting

In order to learn how to get rid of oil stains in carpet, you must blot the oil-spilled area as much as possible. Make use of a porous material such as a towel, cloth, or even some brown paper. Don’t use a newspaper as the ink could transmit onto the carpet and lead to an even bigger, stubborn stain.

Coat the Area with Powder

Once you blot the area, cover it with some absorbing powder such as corn starch or baking soda. Allow it to settle for at least a day. Next, plug in a vacuum cleaner and start cleaning the powder to see how well the stain has gone away. If there’s no stain, that’s great news. However if there’s still some left, refer to the next step.
