I guess you won't answer this because of the rat smelling house....but hopw do I make my carpet smell ok?

[Jelley]

DD2 was sick on it at the weekend.
I washed it.
I disinfected it.
When it was dry I sprinkled with bicarb, then hoovered.

It still smells.
Any suggestions?

try some water and white vinegar?

or you could hire a carpet cleaner?

More bicarb, and leave it on for longer? SHake and Vac?

get some of that neutrol shake n vac type thing for the carpet - stops the doggie smell in our carpets

Thanks.
I'll try the vinegar, as I have some already, and if that doesn't work I'll go shopping tomorrow.
I just saw an advert for febreeze. Does anyone know if it is any good?

ds was sick in my car - i did the same as you and i kid you not the smell was so intense I gagged all the way to the car wash place where the nice man did a complete valet for a tenner . Anyway in answer to your question the valet involved an anti bac spray and literally going over the sick spot with the steam hoover thingy about 10 times - it was a 'henry' i think and each time he added water and the spray then sucked it all out with the hoover.

frebreeze won't do it - i used that on my car...

febreze is really rubbish

dont waste your money on it

In our nice sickness thing we had carpet power spray, then oodles of bicarb, then hoovering as it dried, heating on, window open.
