Spilled red wine on my white rug and thought it was a goner. Mixed up some peroxide and dish soap, dabbed it on, and the stain lifted like MAGIC. Seriously, try this before you give up on a stain.

Doesn't peroxide bleach the fabric? I'd be worried about ruining the color of my rug even more than the stain tbh.

Peroxide and dish soap is a killer combo, but always do a spot test! Different materials can react... unexpectedly... and you don’t wanna trade one problem for another! Also, always dab, don't scrub – it can make the stain sink in deeper.

I've heard of this trick before but was too chicken to try it out of fear of damaging my stuff. Sounds like I might have to be a bit braver cause my rug is a nightmare right now!

Just a heads up that while it's awesome this worked for your rug, we should all remember to use such mixtures sparingly and responsibly. Peroxide is fairly benign, but frequent use can potentially have environmental implications! 🌎

LOL why not just pour the whole bottle of wine on the rug? Problem solved. The rug is no longer white, no more visible stains. Genius, right?

Ah, reminds me of the good ol' times when we'd just toss salt over any spill and pray for the best. Kids these days with their fancy concoctions! Glad it's working out though, might teach my grandkids a thing or two.
omg yes!! Peroxide is my go-to for so many cleaning hacks. I use it to get rid of pit stains on shirts too. Just a splash of peroxide, a sprinkle of baking soda, and a bit of scrubbing... bam, stains are gone!
