    Awkward question!

    I *may* have just accidentally power spewed into our ducted heating vent
    I tried to make it to the toilet!

    How can DH clean this?
    He's sucked the vomit out with a wet/dry vac- any other ideas?

    Sorry but I laughed! Tea tree or eucalyptus will help get rid of the smell.

    Oh dear! How did you manage that? Actually, no don't answer that question lol.

    I agree with eucalyptus oil, not sure what else!

    Can he scrub out the vent with hot water and disinfectant? Then splash the area with eucalyptus/tea tree oil??

    I'd just wipe it out as much as possible then disinfect - pretty much what N2L has said

    sorry! How amusing, and yet horrifying all at once. Bicarb and vinegar.

    I'm still curious though how that happened......

    I agree, bicarb and vinegar should sort it out.

    How it happened?
    I felt sick and tried to make it to the toilet.

    To clarify it was the ducted heating vent in my bathroom.

    Clean and smells fresh now- thank goodness for the wet/dry vac
