A Slime Tsunami has hit your city as kids mix up buckets of slime and stick their goop-covered fingers all over the house. The science of making slime is so hot right now, the hashtag, #slime, has 9.4 million posts on Instagram and if you search slime on youtube, you find millions of videos about how to make the squishy stuff.
Whether it’s “fluffy” slime, “clear” slime or “cloud” slime, moms in your community and across the nation are overwhelmed scraping the gunky residue off carpet, clothes and furniture.
Just in time for the final clean sweep of summer, local experts with Two Maids & A Mop whipped up three magic formulas to wipe up the goo for good.

TWO MAIDS & A MOP’S SECRET TO GET SLIME OUT OF YOUR CLOTHES: ice cube + patience

- Use ice cube to “freeze” off what is left on fabric
- Scrap off any remaining slime, if possible

TWO MAIDS & A MOP’S SECRET TO GET SLIME OFF FURNITURE FABRIC: Damp cloth + TLC
