One of my Grandchildren stayed over last night and unfortunately puked over the settee, it was cleaned off and washed down & bicarbonate of soda sprinkled over to absorb excess moisture etc.
The stink when we returned tonight beggars belief! We've tried deodorizers, perfume etc which masks it for a while, but then it suddenly creeps up on us and grabs us by the throat :-(
Any ideas pleeeeeeeaze?

Pet accident sanitary cleaner (Betterware, or a pet shop). S[ray on foam, wipe off with a damp cloth. Seriously good deodoriser; stops cats coming back anyway...

1001 carpet and upholstry cleaner - mousse with brush attached to tin. It has been good for puke for us. Absolutely no point in trying to mask the smell - you need to get to the root of the problem, which is puke trapped in the material. A good wet vacuum cleaner/ shampooer is worth a go too. Borrow if you don't have one.Suzanne
Any good outside then ?

Never tried it. But it sorted out the smell after comprehensive vomiting over an armchair!
Outside, we use the cat.
I would have thought that babies vomitting on furniture was an everyday experience. What is it about this piece of furniture that is so different I wonder.
Febreeze !!! Works wonderfully, i would never have beleived it myself, but it really does.
deodorizers,
Mostly, babies are fine and the vomit doesn't cling. But, just as with rain and snow, there are many classes of vomit, and occasionally you get a bad one...
There's a vast difference (and quantity) between baby vomit & a nine year olds!
Maybe my furniture is super absorbent ;-)
