SPR: wine removal from carpet

So Bam Bam is feeling ballsy and trying to walk and knocked over DH glass of RED wine on my beige carpet. I tried the salt over night, didn't work. Anyone have any idea how I can make my carpet NOT look like a murder scene???

This kid is going to be the death of me.

Just found this online:

cover the spot with corn starch and push it down in the carpet with your hand or foot to make sure it is all the way down to the bottom of the carpet.

Wait for a day or so and then vacuum the corn starch away. Most of the time, this method removes all of the red wine without causing a permanent stain on the carpet.

Important Note: Make sure you give the corn starch at least 24 hours to work before you vacuum it away.

I have had great luck with Oxy Clean.

I used the Oxy Clean Laundry stain remover on green and blue paint on our carpeting and it worked like a charm-I would test in a non conspicuous area first.

You could try Resolve too.

White Wine. Seriously pour a glass over red wine stain and blot with a white towel.......DO NOT RUB. Use your foot to press down on towel and blot. Good Luck.
