How to get rid of the smell of spilt Omega 3 oil?

My son spilt a bottle of Omega 3 oil in the kitchen on the tile floor. We have washed it with vinegar and cleaners but the smell is still strong. I have also let vinegar soak into the grout but still the smell is there. Can anybody tell me how to get this smell to go away? My house smells like fish!|||When i spilled some omega 3 oil, i lit some strong scented candles to cover the smell until it faded. it worked for me... it might work for you|||You need something to remove the oil, like a standard de-greaser. Vinegar won't do that, which is why the stench is still there.



Use Lestoil straight out of the bottle - pour it on the spill area, and scrub with a stiff bristle brush. Rinse by soaking with HOT water, then wipe. Repeat this a couple of times, then pour non-sudsing ammonia on the spot and scrub with the bristle brush again. You may need to repeat this process a couple of times. This will NOT be as effective if you don't use a bristle brush. A sponge just isn't going to get into all the tiny spaces.



You can get odorless Omega 3 capsules and avoid this problem entirely.|||Wash it repeatedly, maybe 2 or 3 times through the complete cycle using warm water with a double-amount of detergent each time. Then dry the clothes and they should be fine. Fabric softener may help to displace the oil and most of them are scented which will help cover any remaining traces of fishiness.
