    put a paper towl over it and iron over the spot, the wax will soak into the paper towel, so keep changing it, until all the wax is out

    try using ice, let the ice melt on the wax just scrape it off with ur fingers ,dont scrape it in to the carpet.

    Place an unwanted rag or tshirt (cotton only) on top of the stain then iron it w/HEAVY steam in short sweeps. Don’t let the iron sit for more than a 2 seconds- you want an even melt. You’ll probably need to repeat it many times for it to work. Use a new rag each time or you’ll just end up spreading the wax around.

    Look back 3 questions at silvie’s answers to the same question.

    Place a paper bag or paper towels over the wax and place a dry iron over it( no steam). The wax should transfer from the carpet to the paper. You may need more than one piece of paper depending on the size of the stain.
