I used it on brown rayon blend pillows, took the smell out, not sure about stain removal because of dark color. White cotton rug, removed smell but not all the stain. I would try the spot check method or pull out a few fibers and saturate on a paper towel and hope it dosen't bleed. good luck

In my experience, it removes the odor. Initially it smells citrusy, but once it dries there's no noticeable smell to humans. Animals occasionally tend to go over and sniff the area, but they have better noses. It's able to do this because it's an enzyme-based cleaner, which basically means it works on smells that come from the body -- urine, vomit, feces, (even B.O. if you want to try it on stubborn underarm odors), etc. The enzymes in the cleaner break down the proteins causing the odors and stains. It's best to keep the stained area saturated with the cleaner for a while to let it work. You'll also want to test a patch beforehand in case whatever spot you're treating was dyed with protein-based pigments, as this could cause fading. Best of luck!

This product works well on fresher problem areas. For your situation we recommend Nature's Miracle Advanced Stain and Odor Remover.
