does anyone know of an alternative to shake and vac ?

Question

I cant find it in the shop and until i can get my carpet cleaner back, I wondered if there was something similar to shake and vac i could sprinkle on my carpets and then vac up to make them smell a bit nicer ???

Answer 1

you can get vac freshners from things like betterware (u know, those annoying catalogues that comes thru the door!)
if not, try sprinkling a little bit of washing powder or talc on the carpet! only lightly though!!! then when u hoover it up, it should smell nice!!

Answer 2

Shake And Vac

Answer 3

nutroledole do a powder like shake and vac, but in my opinion its better, they do two fragrances summer flowers or original, original is the best, they do a wide range of items in the nutrodole range, airfreseners, in vac sacets to place inside your vacume there very good and last a while, try it i use them, and my husband smokes and i dont and find they help.
and they leave the rooms smelling great afterwards and it lasts quite a while the freshness
