Any MN tips to get vomit smell out of carpet please?

[DelGirl]

just that! I'm sure there'll be a thread on it somewhere but I don't have time to look. DD has a bug, which I thought had cleared up but oh no . Carpet now smells of scrambled egg and pineapple. mmm, nice. Sorry if tmi.

bicarb of soda is supposed to eliminate odours - sprinkle some on offending patch - leave for a while then vaccum - good luck!

Cover it with bicarbonate of soda, leave overnight, then hoover up.

It usually works but if it doesn't then use a solution of half vinegar to half water to scrub the area with.

soda bi carb - made into a paste and applied over the affected area and vacuumed up when dry. Works a treat!

That'll be white vinegar ... not the stuff you put on your chips

oh wow, I am such a slow typist!

blimey that was quick, cheers. Just been reading the 3 words your man doesnt want to hear and hey presto, the answer is clear. Bicarb I mean. Will go and search, thanks again

sorry sis, I assume made into a paste with water? May just try sprinkling for now if I can find some

and if all else fails, use Vanish carpet spray

yes, paste made with water.

Mix washing powder with water at a very high concentration and sponge onto carpet and leave for a few hours. Then sponge off.
This worked wonders in my car after my ds puked all over it. The enzymes in the washing powder break down whatever it is that makes the smell.
