If you’re a complete slob then I’m right there with you. My kids are both former World Champion Nose Bleeders. In fact my son bled so copiously all over his bedroom carpet that it looked liked we’d committed a murder in there. I finally had to have both kids’ noses cauterized; I told the doctor I felt guilty because I wanted to get it done so I could replace the carpet. He replied that many nosebleed families feel similarly; when patients tell him they have no stain-free sheets, pillowcases or towels, he tells them it’s time to have the noses done.

I am impressed. So you put the Bac Out into a squirt bottle and viole’, miracles happen! I’m sure I have kitty puke spots somewhere, I’m off!!!

Ok, I’ll have to get some of this goodness. I need to reread your original post on this, I need laundry detergent and other cleaning supplies.
Just wish Whole Foods was closer to me.

Sounds like awesome stuff!!! Do you think it would also work on laundry stains that have dried in the fabric?? Will have to keep my eye out for that product. Thanks!

That is some impressive stuff right there! Maybe I should find some of that so I won’t be SO worried about Cody having anything. I swear, that boy can leave a stain while playing with his cars somehow!

Hmmm, I think I’ll have to pick some of that stuff up. While I was at Fred Meyer the other week to restock my “green” toilet cleaner I noticed that FM also carried BioKleen. As a matter of fact, I picked up the powder dishwasher soap. There were so many choices, which is nice. I’ll have to see if they have the Bac-Out. Thanks for that tip. I wonder if it’ll remove red juice stains from a cream colored carpet?

Hmm… I wonder if it could tackle the ‘white carpet of doom’ in our living room and hallway… We’ve given up trying to get any stains out since there are just so darn many - I’ve always figured that we’ll just try to replace it someday when the kids are older. Nothing we’ve tried has made much of a difference anyway. But now you’ve got me thinking… Do they sell Bac-Out by the vat?

I’ll have to remember this for the future! I have “Ancient ’70s Shag Carpets of Doom” in my apartment and I’m afraid of using any spot cleaner on them lest I have to spot clean the WHOLE carpet.
