Halloween is upon us again! With it comes trick or treating, pumpkin spice lattes, and one heck of a cleanup. You could run into anything from toilet papered trees, an egged front door, and make up stains. Fortunately egg can be cleaned off with simple soap and water. Toilet paper is much more difficult to remove, especially if it has rained. Simply take a rake and knock it down if it is dry. If it has rained, your only hope is to wait for a sunny day to dry it out and try again. Makeup can be the trickiest to clean up. If you have costume makeup on clothing or furniture, first treat the spot with isopropyl alcohol. Always blot, never wipe or you you will make it worse. After treating the spot with alcohol blot with a mixture of laundry detergent and water. Gradually increase the water content until you are blotting with mostly water. If the stain is still not coming out, you can try carpet cleaner although be sure to test it on a small portion first!
