You CAN remove mustard stain from carpet Comments By: Calogne on 2007-07-07
My daughter just dumped half a container of mustard on my light-grey carpet. I could not find anything of value for removing the stain on the internet. I decided to use dishwasher detergent, not liquid soap, but the stuff you put in your dishwaher. I used about 2 cups of warm water with about 3 tablespoons of detergent. After scraping the area with a knife to remove most of the mustard. I soaked the area with my water-detergent solution. I let that sit for a few minutes and then I just started scrubbing, rewetting, and then scrubbing again, wringing out the rag, and scrubbing again. It took about 5 minutes of scrubbing but it finally came out.

If you look very closely you will see a bit of discoloration but I bet I am the only one who will know it is there. On a light grey carpet, that is pretty amazing.
