Steps

  1. Remove the dirt. Vacuum your carpet to pick up any of the big particles of dirt or loose fibers. The bottom of your shoes contains oil and dirt and the constant contact with your carpet can grind away the surface of your carpet and leave dirt deep in the fibers.
  2. Liberally sprinkle baking soda all over your vacuumed carpet. Let it sit for several hours. Baking soda naturally neutralizes and absorbs odors rather than covering them up.
  3. Be patient as the bad smell in the room makes its departure. The longer you let baking soda sit on the carpet, the better it will neutralize odors.
  4. Vacuum the baking soda out. After several hours, vacuum up the baking soda and your carpet will be odor and chemical free.

Tips

  • Add a few drops of essential oil to your baking soda and mix well before using; lavender is one good choice. This will add an additional pleasant scent layer over the scent neutralizing effect of the baking soda.

Things You'll Need

  • baking soda (also known as bicarbonate of soda, or bicarb for short)
  • vacuum cleaner
