How to Clean Pet Vomit from Your Carpet the Easy Way

Step 7: Let the Carpet Dry

After thoroughly cleaning and treating the vomit-stained area, allow the carpet to dry completely. Drying may take several hours depending on the room’s humidity and airflow. Speed up the drying process by using a fan or opening windows for better air circulation. Be sure to avoid walking on the damp carpet until it’s fully dry.

If the area remains damp after several hours, use paper towels or a dry cloth to soak up any lingering moisture.

Step 8: Vacuum the Carpet

Once the carpet is fully dry, vacuum the area to restore the carpet’s texture and remove any remaining particles. This will also help fluff up the fibers and ensure your carpet looks as good as new. Vacuuming can also help remove any residue left behind from the baking soda, vinegar, or enzymatic cleaner.
