I was searching for ways to get peanut butter out of carpet and found
these instructions claiming that peanut butter can actually be just the thing you need to get gum out of your carpet. I was just as shocked as you, but reading through the reasoning it sounds like a great solution.
Scrape off as much gum as you can, then rub on some creamy peanut butter. The peanut butter will take the stick out of the gum. It should wipe away easily. Reading trough the instructions I thought "that's great, but what about my original problem of having peanut butter in the carpet?" Well, it turns out that isn't quite the problem I imagined it to be. A
simple, homemade solution will wash way the peanut butter and your carpet will be as stunning as it started (or in our house, will only have the stains that existed before the gum and peanut butter).

Does anyone know how to get the grease looking spots out of your laundry that comes from using the Bounce sheets in your dryer? That is where I think they are coming from, and it ruins so many of my tee shirts.
ReplyMy daughter sat on gum on my car seat and now there are dark streaks from where her pants must have rubbed onto the gum. Most of the gum is actually gone but there is probably some gum residue left. Any suggestions on removing this without ruining my upholstery? I have beige velour-type upholstery...
ReplyLashell -- to use SSS for fleas, you spray it on your dog or cat. You can also spray it on the furniture, carpet and around the doors.
