How to remove pet vomit from upholstery

1. Scoop up any solid matter from the upholstery. Use an old spoon to carefully scoop the vomit from upholstery, taking care not to further spread the vomit. Spray on a small amount of water if the solid particles need to be loosened to remove.
2. Sprinkle a generous coating of baking soda onto the vomit stain. Allow the area to dry completely for a few hours.
3. Vacuum the baking soda from the upholstery. Use the soft brush hose attachment to vacuum up the baking soda. The baking soda will have absorbed a large amount of the vomit stain.
4. Sprinkle another coating of baking soda onto the affected area. This will help to absorb any remaining vomit from the upholstery. Let it dry for a few hours then vacuum up the baking soda.
5. Pour some club soda onto the vomit. It is important to thoroughly cover the stain without completely soaking the upholstery.
6. Blot the stained upholstery with a thick stack of paper towels. Continue blotting, switching to clean portions of the paper towels frequently, until no more vomit is lifting from the upholstery.
7. Rinse the area with a rag and plain water. Dry with a clean rag to soak up excess moisture.

We all love our pets, but they can sometimes leave a bit of a mess. Cleaning vomit is only one of the many things they leave for us to find. surely, homeowners as well as Twin Cities janitorial will find your post informative. Thank you for sharing! Will the baking soda take all the vomit out?
