Removing Carpet Stains?

My boyfriend and I moved into an apartment that has white carpets in both bedrooms. White very stained carpets...I've tried the 409 carpet stain remover on them, but it didn't seem to improve them at all. Does anyone have any recommendations for other products, or any quot;home-remediesquot; for ground in, old carpet stains?Any help is appreciated!Thanks!

Answer:

Ammonia is good for carpet stains. Use it diluted with water (don't mix anything else in). Your best bet, though, is to rent or buy a steam cleaner. Use a solution and pretreat the stains. Then clean them very well with the cleaner.
Home remedies don't work and 409 is designed to lighten stains, not remove them.
