So my oh in his infinite wisdom has walked through our new house with new cream carpet with muddy shoes...... I'm sure u can picture my face.
Anyway.. We have never really had carpets before so I have no experience, there's not a lot, we haven't properly moved in yet so I haven't ha a chance to do anything either and as I have never really had carpets before (usually laminate or really old carpets so haven't really worried) I have no experience in cleaning carpets or have anything to clean with so this advice will also be used in the future too! I am going to get some form of carpet cleaner but really can't afford one right now, I was also going to get some of that shake stuff that u Hoover up (whatever it's called) in the meantime what an I use to clean this up!
Thanks!!!! X
 
washing up liquid and hot water and a scrub. is what I've used in the past.

Hoover up any loose mud first.
