My 3 year old dropped bits of sucker on my floor mats. They are now stuck in the carpet pretty good. Any ideas how to get them out?

spritz them with hot water to soften the sugar or if you have a steamer, same idea but maybe faster

:iagree: Good suggestion! I have also microwaved a moist towel and placed it on top of the candy to give it a bit of a dwell time.

:iagree:also a good suggestion. Welcome to the mutual admiration club.

Bottom line is to break up the crystalized/hardened sugar.

Have your son blast it off with a pressure washer then use an adhesive remover for the sticky residue

Thanks guys, I'm going to try a towel soaked in hot water. Maybe some goo-gone
