Get chewing gum out of clothing?

maggut

Can anyone help me please? My son sat in gum at school,i have let it dry and scraped the worst off with a knife but does anyone know how to get the last engrained bit out of his clothing.
I dont want to go out and buy different things that claim to work if i dont know for sure that they do! :-/
Any help would be appreciated.

Try popping them in the freezer,when the chewing gum is solid it will come off easier

or an easier way
Removing chewing gum.
Put ice cubes into a plastic bag, place on top the chewing gum to harden it and slowly scrape the gum off.

I have tried this way Traf and it worked for me.

I was going to suggest freezinf it too.

Another method is to rub peanut butter into it to loosen the gum ( that was if it is in your hair)
