Carpet Water Damage Gainesville

I accidently spilled draino on my carpet. What can I use to neutralize the spill to limit the damage?

I accidently spilled draino on my carpet. What can I use to neutralize the spill to limit the damage?
Drano leaked out of a box that was stored in my living room. Moved the box the other night and noticed a bleached spot on carpet. Used lots of water to try to clean up spill. Ran carpet cleaning machine over spot several times to try to help. Still smell strong “bleach” smell from spot. Carpet fibers are damaged, and can be easily pulled out. Need advice to find something to neautralize leftover draino to limit additional damage.

Good Question!

NEVER DILUTE A BASE WITH AN ACID! ALWAYS USE WATER FOR DILUTION UNLESS THE SUBSTANCE THAT YOU ARE DILUTING IS WATER REACTIVE (SUCH AS ELEMENTAL SODIUM)

Look in the NIOSH Pocket Guide (NPG) for information concerning most household chemicals. If the chemical that you are looking for isn’t in the NPG. look in Wikipedia. I’ve been surprised that they have quite a number of chemicals on Wiki.
If you still can’t find it, then contact your local hospital lab for a chemist consult.

It sounds like you’ve already diluted the NaOH (Sodium Hydroxide) that was in the Drano. Now you have the bleaching caused by the NaOCl (Sodium HypoChlorite); common house bleach and also present in Drano to some degree, to worry about.
No amount of scrubbing or diluting will get the Bleaching out of your carpet. The color has already been changed by the Chlorine solution. The only thing that you can do is to take up the carpet and clean underneath it with soapy water followed by a clean water rinse.
Also, get rid of the carpet and replace it.
I’ve tried to get carpet dyed before that had been exposed to Chlorine and it doesn’t work.
Furthermore, exposing any residual chlorine to Acetic acid (vinegar) will give you some nasty by-products (Chloroacetic Acid – weed killer, and Hydrochloric A cid) that you really don’t want in your house.

<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>.

If you are in doubt about any of this, please ask for a consult from a Chemist at your local hospital.

Good Luck!
