In respect to this, does vinegar remove chewing gum?

You can also remove gum using the multipurpose hero of every home: white vinegar (look at all these amazing things vinegar can do). Heat the vinegar in a small pot. Once it’s hot, dip in a toothbrush, and use this to scrub the soiled garment. Give it a little elbow grease and the gum should come right off.

Hi, my name is Andres. Over the last 25 years, I’ve had the privilege of helping thousands of my friends and neighbors get the most sparkling carpets and rugs they’ve ever seen. In fact, many tell me they love taking their shoes off and rubbing their toes in the soft, fluffy carpet after they get the most thorough cleaning ever! They told me they wanted more… and I’m giving it to them!
