My son has just poured out half a bottle of fairy washing up liquid all over the kitchen floor, i know turn your back for 2 minutes grrrr , iv'e tried to mop it up and tried wiping it with a cloth but the floor is still like an ice rink, what else can i try to get it up before someone has an accident?

Wipe up what you can with absorbent towels or cloths, then it wants rigorous washing with cold water Evie. Cold water dissolves detergents better than hot - look at your nearest river and check the foam. It is a hell of a job to get it skid free but it is the only way forward. Plonk your son on his backside and use his nappy as a soak-up cloth.

Madevie do you have a cat?

Put cat litter over the washing up liquid to soak it up.Then wash the floor with hot water and white vinegar.

I'm too late to help, but was going to say put the cat on its back and get two jobs done at once.

That said I thought Esca's idea of your son on his backside and use his nappy as a soak-up cloth was better!
