Hi all

 

Last week-end I brought back some defrosted squid and cuttle to mash down for ground bait ready for next year.

 

Problem is the bag leaked a bit of the jucies onto the back carpet in the car! huh.gif

 

What is the best stuff to clean the carpet and freshen it up with, as the FPO is complaining!!!

FPO removal sounds even more expensive!

 

I think you need some anti-bacterial cleaner and hot water (detol or similar), then go down the Fabreeze smell nice route!

 

Unlucky Dave.

If you have no luck with febreeze etc, try this

 

Mix 50/50 vinegar and water, spray onto carpet, work into and wipe clean. The car will smell of vinegar for a few days but once that clear, that should clear the smell too.

 

I had some fish 'water' drip onto carpet from the shetland trip and used this trick to clear the smell.

Jacqui's sister did us a tray of chicken & veg.

She covered it in foil, put newspaper under it and said " be careful it's prety full ".

 

I put it in the rear footwell of my car ( still hot ).

Yes - - - - - - it went everywhere.

Smelled lovely for a couple of days biggrin.gif

Then it smelled horrible.

I've scrubbed and washed and scrubbed and washed and scrubbed and washed and scrubbed and washed.

Then I got the carpet up a bit and flushed water through and mopped it out - - - - - about 5 times.

I've got the carpet wedged up in the air to help dry it out at the mo.

It's nearly O.K. but I quite fancy the Vinegar option if it still smells in a week or so weep.gifweep.gifweep.gif
