Recipe(tried): How to remove berry stains from clothing

Misc.
Thanks for the Boiling Water on Berry Stain Recipe! My wife and I replaced our carpeting a couple of years ago, then within a year we had a small fire that ruined the new carpet. We got that replaced last year, then this week we had a neighborhood Block Watch Party at our house. It was a Pot-Luck Dessert social. My wife and I were outside visiting and she went in the house to find a couple of the neighbor kids picking up the remnants of the Blackberry Cobbler that one of them had dropped on the Carpet.

I went to the web and entered "How to remove Blackberry Stains" and found your link. I boiled some water and got a bunch of white paper towels and started pouring and dabbing. Within 10 or 15 minutes I had removed THE 6" X 6". It looks brand new!

Thanks Again,

Bob
