Dear Listers –

We have recently had two visitors have unpleasant accidents in our historic house. These have involved emissions from both ends of the human digestive tract, and were cleaned up by staff using, in at least one of the incidents, Pine Sol. My question is, what should be used on 100 or 200 year old wooden floors with very little if any finish left on them? Is there something that will deal with odors as well as the stuff itself? I obviously need to have a cleanup kit up there for staff to use. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks, as always,

 

- Anne
