When we moved into our house the living room carpet was gross. It was supposed to be a whitey creamy color, but was dotted nearly BLACK in places. So we did the only thing we could, we ripped it all out, except for the three bedrooms, the master bedroom, Logan;s room and the "dogs" room.
This afternoon, while trying to convert people over to Team Sock, I was also telling Logan to clean his bedroom. Every so often I would go to his room to check up on him and I began to notice something strange. He was cleaning his room, but in one spot he had carefully spread out a tee shirt, another spit had a sock spread over it and another spot, he had taken a towel and smoothed it open on the carpet.
I got curious and moved the tee shirt and found neon pink hi-lighter on the carpet. The same was under the towel and the sock.
Add the pink hi-lighter to the neon yellow goo spillage of last month and his carpet is looking pretty damn bad.
I'm going to rent a steam cleaner this weekend, to see if that will help, but I am betting that we will end up having to replace the carpet in his room, and if we do that, we might as well do my room too, there is a rather large coffee stain near my closet that won;t come clean!
The last thing I need is to fork over money to replace the carpets, so I will be crossing my fingers that the pink comes out!

I have found if I take a white terry towel, soaked in really hot water, take my iron set as hot as it will go with steam set the towel on the stain, with the iron it sometimes pulls it out - be careful not to melt the carpet.
