Baking soda adsorbs odors, which means it takes odors from the air. It neutralizes acid-based odors in water. Liberally sprinkle baking soda on the carpet. Let set overnight,
or as long as possible. Sweep
up the larger amounts of baking soda, and vacuum up the rest. Redo the process if
you still smell odors you wish to remove. Baking soda works like magic,
it sometimes just takes time and making sure you are using enough baking
soda.
Caution: While damp baking soda works really well for many odors, damp
baking soda can also get stuck onto the carpet fibers and be difficult
to clean. If you live in a very humid climate you might substitute a
light spray of white distilled vinegar for the baking soda.
