Gingerbread latte on the carpet? โ๐ช๐ญ Your cozy fall drink just became a carpet problem.
Coffee, milk, sugar, and spice can leave behind both color and sticky residue if the spill sits too long.
Quick cleanup:
โ Blot the spill right away with a clean white towel
โ Donโt rub โ it can spread the coffee deeper
โ Work from the outside toward the center
โ Use a small amount of carpet-safe cleaner
โ Blot again to lift the residue
โ Lightly rinse and dry completely
๐ซ Donโt soak the carpet or let sugary residue dry into the fibers.
NYC homeowners, save this before your next holiday coffee run. ๐๐
