re bay oil spill

[Guest guest]

One of my favourite smells, but I would guess yours is overwhealing.

It is one of those oils where the smell can persist for months. The

best thing - if there is still a strong smell after you tried what

the others suggest - is heat. If you can lift the carpet a touch and

direct a fan heater or hairdrier onto the carpet and leave it running

for an hour or two that will evaporate most of the oil. If it has

soaked into the floor you will need to lift the carpet for sure.

Don't use any kind of heater that glows red or you could get the

fumes igniting. You also need to be careful that the room is well

ventilated and you get your clothes out of that closet. If not you

will leave a trail of bay oil everywhere you go.

You guessed right. :-) It's one of my favorites, too.. but not *this* much.

 

The Febreeze took care of the smell in the carpet. I don't smell it at all

when I walk into my close now. But I do smell it when I get into bed, so I

must have gotten it on my nightgown or something and then transferred it to

my sheets. I'm changing the bed linens today, and that should take care of it.

 

That Febreeze is good stuff!!
