The iron and paper towel trick works well. My mother used to do this at our church when the candles would drip on the carpet in the pulpit worked great.

Wet towel down then hot iron on the towel. Comes right off the carpet and adheres to the wet towel.

So my husband and I own a carpet cleaning business. He does all the work I do the books lol. He says an iron and brown paper bag. Heat up the iron, put bag over the wax, put iron on the bag. When the wetness of the wax starts to come through he bag, keep doing circles with the iron until it’s all out. Keep moving the bag to a clean spot once the wax starts to seep though the bag

Eh. Just pick it out when you’re feeling bored.

You’ll need an iron and a towel. Get a damp towel, fold it in half and place it over the wax. Press an iron set on “high” over the towel for 10 seconds. The heat will draw the wax out of the carpet and into the towel. Repeat until the wax is gone

Also, your carpet care vendor should be able to get it. If not. You can always patch it
