Getting rid of smelly feet odor

I'd try something like Nature's Miracle or anothe enzyme-based carpet cleaner. Of course, you might start by spraying white vinegar on the affected areas and waiting about 24 hours before you go the enzyme route.

Thanks for the tip. I've never tried anything with vinegar...should it be diluted before use?

A couple of months ago I had something worse than smelly feet permeate my carpet. I used diluted vinegar...can't remember the dilution but a google search should reveal it. Once dry, I sprayed the heavy duty Febreze (for carpet and upholstery...not the room spray) over the area, lightly, for several days in a row. It worked! I was shocked!
