HELP....................Vomit

Postby Kirstyh » Wed Jan 27, 2010 2:50 pm

Any one know how I can get the smell of vomit out of a carpet, Gracie was sick all over the living room one yesterday and I can't get rid of the smell!!! I cleaned it straight away, used one of the foam spray things and then vaxed it this morning and it still smells :puke: what will neutralise the smell. xxx

Defo go for the bicarb. Is it wool carpet? that can make a difference, a paste of bicarb and water put on and left for a couple of hours then rubbed and scraped off and vaccumed should do the trick though.
