Hi, Jo,
Try this. First chip off any solid wax that you can. Then lay
newspapers down on the wax and place a very warm iron (as warm as the
carpet can stand but not scorching) and iron the waxed area. The paper will
soak up the melted wax. Then get more paper and repeat until the wax is all
soaked up (get LOTS of newspapers, it may take a while).
I speak from experience with this. My mom did the same thing when I
was a kid, Dad almost divorced her on the spot. But that was >nothin'<
compared to the time my mom poured unused plaster of Paris down the sink.
(Hey, it was liquid when it went down!) Or the time that I spilled a bottle
of India ink on the carpet that was covering the place where my sister
spilled the finish remover on the hardwood floor and tried to cover it up..
.... Oh, my poor poor father, he is truly a gem.
