Need to shampoo carpet but do not have a shampooer at the current time. Was wondering how to make a homemade easy recipe to clean several spots that are very dirty...
2 cups baking soda
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/2 cup cornmeal
1 tablespoon borax
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2-3 dried bay leaves
This is my favorite homemade carpet cleaning solution! The addition of cinnamon and bay leaves adds a fresh scent to the carpet, and both ingredients offer anti-bacterial and disinfecting properties. This recipe is great for weekly refreshing in areas you sit and play, or heavy-duty cleanings in areas with heavier foot traffic.
To make you mix the ingredients and put in a food processor until everything is a fine powder. You can store in a canning jar. To use you sprinkle on carpet and further spread out with a broom or brush. Let sit overnight or as long as you want and vacuum. Don't use this on a wet carpet though.
