Whether the vomit stain comes from a pet or from a person, you can go about removing it in the same way.
- Remove as much of the remaining vomit as possible from the material. You can try spraying a small amount of water directly onto the stain to loosen it up, which may make it easier to remove.
- Sprinkle baking soda directly onto the affected area and let it sit for a few hours. The baking soda will soak up a good portion of the vomit stain over time.
- Using a vacuum attachment, vacuum the baking soda off the furniture.
- Repeat step 2, letting the second coat of baking soda sit for an additional few hours.
- After vacuuming the baking soda, pour enough club soda to cover the vomit stain directly onto the upholstery.
- Rinse the upholstery with water and a clean cloth. The vomit stain should no longer be visible.
