Cleaning the carpet, after poorly child...

Ok, so i've taken advice from several different posts on here and have managed to clean and neutrelise the smell of sick from my DS's carpet. (Its been a bad few days!!!):o
But now I'm left with a white halo mark around the orignal area that I cleaned. I used dissolved bio washing powder and white vinegar.
Anyone got any advice on how to now clean this away??

  • I would go over the white area with water and blot with old towels to remove as much as possible. Its probably a build up of the washing powder dried to form the ring.
    :D Thanks to MSE, I am mortgage free!:D

    I have a steam cleaner which is very good for stains, but if you havn't one you could try with a steam iron and a thin damp cloth to draw the stain out.
  • Thanks for the advice, as could be expected I've not been able to think properly over the last few days....poorly kids make you worry so much (then there's the issue of him throwing up on a 6 month old carpet!!):rotfl:
