How to...

Sorry if this is in the wrong place, but here goes...

My little lady (9 months) loves raisins but ends up dropping half of them. My darling step son (15) has a habit of treading on them, rather than picking them up :mad:

So now i have a felt carpet with lots of little extremely squished in raisins. How do i remove them? They are too far gone just to pick them

Whilst i'm at it, any tips for removing blu tack from same ss carpet?

Many thanks!

for the blu tack, best method i've found is to dab with another pice of blu tack, it'll gradually come off, just be patient and keep going at it. worked on furry collar of dd coat, and her bedroom carpet.
not sure about the raisins though, if i think of anything i'll let you know.

woas.

asked my gran re the raisins and she suggests rubbing with a cloth barely damp dipped in bicarb or talc, and rub over the raisin which'll dry out the raisin and hopefully remove it, she said it worked with xmas cake on her carpet!!!!!!

worth a try i think,

woas.
