    It depends on the carpet (wool/synthetic) and the stain! Generally, for small spot stains, I use either bio washing detergent (liquid), flash liquid, Fairy liquid or normal bar soap. Put a little on a wrung out wet cloth and attack the stain that way. If it's a wool carpet, I'd use a tiny bit of soap on a just damp cloth. To rinse, keep rinsing and wringing the cloth and rubbing some more :)
    For my carpet (synthetic), I just spray Flash liquid directly onto any stains and rub with a dry cloth, then rinse the cloth & rub again.

    There are loads of threads for carpet stains.. run a search!! I wouldn't recommend starting a new one it'll be merged and your question will be lost in the last 10 years of advice.
