Spilt pickled onions all over lounge carpet..

Firstly, sorry if this is the wrong place to ask!
I've had a real craving for pickled onions recently, and was just sat in the lounge munching my way through a few, with the jar on my knee.
Then I dropped it. Cue pickled onions everywhere, as well as the vinegar they're pickled in...:eek:
I've blotted it as much as I can, but any tips on how to get rid of the smell? I'm fairly sure it still gonna smell when it's dry...

Oh yeah.... Sorry, I didn't think of that!..... I think I would sprinkle lots of bicarb of soda on it as that is a natural deodoriser.Putting these winter preps here so I don't forget!

Bicarb will deodorise the smell, and being alkaline, will neutralise the acid, too :rudolf: Sheep, pigs, hens and bees on our Teesdale smallholding :rudolf:0
