Serious question regarding odour

The basic jist of the situation is that my flatmate is a vegetarian and to be quite frank his farts really stink bad. That in itself isn't much of a problem. The real problem is that when he farts on the couch, the smell stays in the couch and hangs around the house permenantly. It's a really foul odour which apparently he can't smell. It's got to the point where I don't use the living room any more, I sit in my bedroom.

I've said to him straight that his farts stink and that they are ruining the furniture. He seems to think I was trying my hand at stand up comedy and hasn't taken any heed of it.

I've tried getting the couch cover dry cleaned to no avail and I've tried that Fabreeze and Neutradol gear. The couch still stinks. In fact, the smell has worked its way into the curtains as well, it clings to everything.
How do I get rid of it? I can't even bring guests round because it's so bad.

I never knew farts could be so offensive but from what my mates tell me, that's pretty much standard for vegetarians.

So, how do I get rid of the stink for good? I'm going to tell him straight tomorrow to either eat a bit of steak or to go outside or into his bathroom to fart. It's foul and sickening :mad:

could try steam cleaning it?

if you can get a steam cleaner that is

How do I do that? Does it involve expensive equipment? Can I hire one of those steam cleaners?
 
not sure if you can hire one but i wouldnt of thaught theyre that expensive. we have used one before to get red of certain strong smells and it worked very well


there are afew in argos, around the £60-£70 mark for the cheapest ones :)
 
May well be worth investing in a upholstery clean, such as a Vax. Steam would be as good, too.

Are you sure he's not leaving little "presents", whenever he lets off? :eek:
 
so.. you'll clean them. And then what.. he'll fart all over them again...

You need to neutralise the source of the problem. Sell him to the MOD. they can use him to **** off the terrorists.

or counter the odour with another one, like make a few ultra strong curries :p

Don't swear! FF.
 
Ok ill give my serious reply now.

Rub some After shave or something into them. It will smell extremely strong for the first for days bad after that it will become a nice gentle smell :)

This does work, I used a full 100ml Bottle on my couch to remove a horrible horrible wet dog smell :p
