How to Get Winter Salt Out of Carpet
Vacuum up the dry grit first. Then blot the white spots with warm water and a clean towel, let the carpet dry, and vacuum again. If the spots keep coming back, the salt is deeper and a cleaning will help.

Stop it at the door
Use a mat outside and another inside, take boots off at the door, and vacuum entries often in winter. Sand and grit wear carpet down, and salt leaves white marks as it dries.
Treating salt spots
Vacuum first. Blot with warm water and a white towel, and don't scrub. Let it dry and vacuum again. Skip strong chemicals, and don't mix products.

Questions
Should I scrub salt stains?
No. Scrubbing can fray the fibers. Blot with warm water instead.
Can cleaning fix every winter mark?
No. Salt usually cleans out, but worn fibers and color changes don't.
