Things You Will Need

  • Dish detergent
  • Water
  • Cleaning cloth or paper towels
  • Household ammonia
  1. Remove any cheese that comes up easily. Take care not to smear or smash cheese into the carpet fibers. If cheese is smeared, let it dry, then pick out as much as you can.

  2. Mix 1 teaspoon of mild dish detergent with 1 cup of warm water. Wet a clean cloth or paper towel with this mixture, and blot the stained area.

  3. Mix 1 tablespoon of household ammonia with 1/2 cup of warm water. Wet another clean cloth or paper towel with this, and continue to blot the stain.

  4. Repeat the steps until the cheese stain is removed.
