There are special Glade powders produced by Johnson and Son Inc. especially for the purpose of eliminating smell from carpets resulting after cat piss, food spills etc.. Basically what you do is spray some of it on affected carpet areas, leave for 5 - 10 minutes for it to absorb all unwanted scents or liquids and then vacuum clean the surface thoroughly. The product is a white powder with strong scent and is sold in round cylinders in multiple colors. If you don't have a vacuum cleaner, use power supply in your tower. :) -- My real email address is: <vladimip @ uniserve dot com> #include <disclaimer.h> | *Good pings come in small packets* Vancouver | Windows: for IQs smaller than 95 British Columbia | SIGSIG -- signature too long (core dumped)
