My son has very kindly spilt chocolate milk over my cream lounge carpet, this is after spending all morning scrubbing out because my dad is coming down :mad: Any easy way to get it out please?

Sorry you haven't had a reply sooner (was Dad cross?
) Anyway, you have two things going on here, chocolate *&* milk. You need to scrape up as much of the soiling as possible with the blunt side of a knife, then, use a COOLED strong solution of biological laundry detergent (powder or liquid). Use a soft nailbrush to gently brush in the direction of the pile of the carpet. You may need to repeat this a couple of times. Now you need to 'rinse' it. To do that, dab with a clean cloth rinsed in cool plain water several times to remove the soap.
