i have Heuga bathroom carpet tiles cos hubby is a bit dicky on his feet and does tend to have falls, i take each tile up and wash it in the sink in hand wash liquid soap water and the rinse under the running tap and let drain. in the summer i do take em outside to dry off in the sun. . I regularly wash tiles fitted around the loo and bidet for obvious reasons!! lol

I thought that I would steal this thread to pass on a carpet cleaning tip.
I have an elderly incontinent cat who leaks thick black poo everywhere he sleeps. I found out, in desperation,that a dab of CO-OP hand soap ,in the pump action dispenser on a damp cloth,gets rid of stains on my cream coloured carpets wonderfully. It even works on the bright yellow sick stains that he so thoughtfully leaves around the house.

Has anyone had experience of this? I have about 6 (from B&Q) that are in need of cleaning, but cannot find any instructions so would be grateful for any suggestions please.

Thank you
Hilary
