    Default Flooded floors

    hey everyone I was out wheeling today and took on a pretty deep mud hole. I ended up sitting in it for some time and some water found its way in.. Anyone know some good ways to dry out the carpet and get most of that water sucked out??
    Thanks a lot!!

    Baking soda can help pull some water out too

    Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S4 because my microwave couldn't do it

    Oh, actually, just remembered... Kitty litter works even better than baking soda and is easier to clean up afterwards. Just spread it in the floor boards and let it soak up the moisture. Then you can vacuum it out when it's dried up.
