I need help now! My friends and I had a wild party last night and one of my friends got completely smashed and puked all over my carpet and it sat there for 6 hours before I woke up and saw. So how do I get puke out of my carpet before my mom gets home in a half hour?

  1. Good luck. Puke contains stomach acid which does a number or fabric fiber. Chances are you may never get it totally out.

    You have to get it as soon as it happens to minimize damage.

    Best you can do now is clean up as much as possible and scrub, scrub, scrub.


  2. lol Haha!!!!!!! Thats what you get for partying... MOUTH PUKE AND TUURRDDSS!!!

  3. Unfortunately, I don't know of any consumer spotter removers to remove 100% of the stain. There are several professional carpet cleaning products that will. After pre-spray and several cleaning passes you will normally still see the stain. Peroxide is sprayed on after it is dry and will lighten the stain and not damage the fiber,

  4. Spread some salt, baking soda, hot water and dish soap on the spot, scrub well and vacuum with a wet dry vac. Or just pick up the worst with a paper towel and get some pro-solve and scrub.

  5. You are going to have to scrape up as much as possible then grab a carpet cleaner upholstery attachment and star scrubbing. Pour some water on the area after it has been scrubbed to rinse the soap off of it. The you will want to spray the area really well with straight white vinegar to neutralize the smell and sanitize the area. Soak up any excess with a towel and allow to air dry.It won't be smell free until it dries and so you will need to let your mom know that you messed up before she finds out.

    Tips :

    Dry cleaning fluid can be purchased at home supply stores or the dry cleaners.

    Always test the cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous part of the carpet before using them on a large area.

    Use a white cloth rather than a colored one to prevent any dyes from coming off on the carpet.



    As you blot, keep turning the cloth so that you are using a clean, dry section to pick up the stain and the cleaning fluids from the carpet. Don't rub.



    If using a brush to help clean the stain, always brush from the outer edges of the spill inward to prevent the stain from spreading.
