Cleaning up vomit
Welcome to my disgusting thread, no pictures though
 Had a few friends round last night and some drinks on the go. One guy went off to make a phonecall and we never saw him again. Found him at 4am face down in his own vomit :/ On my mattress  Firstly in the short term: How do i clean this up in the most effective way? Searching via google is fine but I wouldn't mind some real world answers  The stain is also on the carpet too. Secondly: Would it be better/quicker at this point to toss the mattress and get a new one? Thanks

1. Make you mate do it.
2. And buy you a new mattress.

Carpet is fine, easy to clean. Mattresses (in my hurly experience) should be burnt.

Funny enough that's exactly what Matt said, and I said 'don't post that, it's not exactly helpful is it?'
 Pebs might know, NYE 2008 was a bit eventful in that sense. I think we ended up throwing everything away in the end. For the carpet though, try a good squirt of bleach in a bowl of warm water. That should help remove the smell & the stain. Bicarb of soda is good for stains too. I think the mattress will be a gonna though.

Yeah a mattress tends to soak things up like a sponge and never really let go. You only end up "cleaning" the outside, the inside is still reaking to hell...
