QuoteReplyTopic: Removing Smells Posted: 09 April 2010 at 1:35pm
Hey all, We have just had the night from hell (well could have been worse but it was bad enough for me). Josh was sick through the kitchen and our bedroom covering carpets, towels, sheets and several sets of clothes. I cleaned up the carpets with hot water and dettol which was great at the time but now i can still smell it and some of the washing is coming out of the machine still stinking despite washing them with powder, nappysan and some more dettol.
How do i get rid of the smell? I dont normally cope well with vomit smells but add in pregnancy and if i get too stronger wiff of it and im all most adding to it so aside from burning everything thats been affected i will try anything to have a nice clean smelling house again. Thank god its nice today and i can have the windows open but come early evening its going to be icy cold and would love to be able to rid the house of the smell before then.
Babe i hope you internet has finally been reconnected today i know you will have all the answers otherwise im sure some of you other lovely ladies can help me
I had a naughty cat pee on my baby's boucinet/baby bouncer and I used white vinegar (one part white vinegar, 2 parts water) on it. Then sprinkled baking soda and left it there, later vacuuming it up. Finally, a pet odour spray. I think the combination of these three finally got rid of it (after my washing/sponging it and trying other sprays on it), so you could try those things?
I would've suggested vinegar and baking soda too chick otherwise 1/4 cup ammonia in water and use elbow grease but ammonia smeels real strong so be careful!
On a side note I can't believe how fast your pregnancy is going!!!
I know the time is flying I want it all to slow down so he can stay my baby for abit longer!!!!! LOL i do remember wondering if the torture of being pregnant would ever end though!! I'm so excited you're having a girl - I need to come visit!!!!! I might bring the boys down in June coz we going to Hokitika then maybe send DP home in the ute and fly down to you for the rest of the week... hmmm will havta think on that coz it appeals....
Smell mostly gone now just get a whiff occasionally sitting at computer (since thats where it happened). Thinking i just didnt use enough baking soda so will give it another go.
Yay babe be awesome to see you again and you new addition!!! Dont have my ugly van (or vans we had 4 at one stage all the same) i finally got my Caldina after we sold the Corolla. You should see one of my pics on facebook of all three vans looking at me through the window that was a scary few days hahaha.
you can get nilidor at the supermarket (ive seen it at pak n save and new world) its about 6.50. once spray and the room smells better, but doesnt stop the actual source of the smell
