Hacks to Remove Slime from Clothes, Carpets, and Walls

Slime is every kid’s obsession and every mama’s nightmare because of the mess it causes. Slime always leaves stains everywhere and if not treated properly, it will totally ruin the fabric or surface. No need to ban slime from the house and make your child upset. Here are some brilliant hacks to get slime out of clothes, carpets, and walls. You just need some ingredients from your kitchen and items available in any house.

 

Clothes

 

For wet slime:

 

• Pour enough white vinegar onto the slime stain and allow it to dry for five minutes maximum.
• Scrub the stains in a circular motion using an old toothbrush.
• Rinse the clothes in hot water, then wash normally.

 

For dried slime:

 

• Soak the clothes in white vinegar for five minutes. Immediately rinse off any slime particles with warm water. Then wash normally.
• Or dab the slime stain with acetone, then wash the clothes normally.

 

Carpets

For wet slime:

 

• Quickly remove as much slime as you can with your fingers.
• Use a spoon to gently scrape away the embedded slime onto a paper towel.
• Mix 2/3 cup of vinegar with 1/3 cup of water, then spray the slime particles with it.
