How to remove smell of petrol from house!

idunnoshur

Good evening

This evening the parents went out for dinner so naturally I had a few cans with the brother. We both forgot about the fire and it went out so I filled a crisp wrapper up with petrol and threw it on top of the fuel. There was a bit of a miscalculation and petrol ended up all over the front of the fire.

The two of us then agreed that the best way to remove the smell would be to burn off the petrol but all that did was singe my eyebrows and hair to fuck. That led to the two of us having an altercation and I (as usual) kicked the shit out of him.

I now have to get rid of the smell of petrol alone before 11 o clock. Any suggestions AH?

Thanks

Liberally apply kerosene to the house - guaranteed they won't smell the petrol.

I suggest you and you brother not to come to any more conclusions!

Is your name Larry, Moe or Curly ?

biko

Is there a car next to the house? Burn that and then they won't notice the smell in the house.

Pls don't try anything else!!

get a few big onions, cut them in half and leave them around the room

Light a nice scented candle....
...and then fcuk your brother in the ass.

He sounds like he deserves it.

Douse with diesel. Its similar to how red/white wine works with stains

Kylo Ren

Smear you and your brothers feces all over the walls and floor. Now the room will smell of ****, not petrol.

Look on google and don't be confused by "Gasoline odor".

Piss is the only way to get rid of the smell of petrol. Drink loads more cans and piss all over the effected areas as much as possible. Course your house is then going to smell of piss

You appear to have found yourself in a Martin McDonogh play of some sort.

Happy ending most unlikely.

Ur fukced to be honest, its next to impossibe to get rid of the smell. You just have to let it fade in time and it wont fade before 11, just make up a viable excuse.

Miss Lockhart

Should we ring social services OP? It sounds like mammy and daddy shouldn't have left you alone.

I imagine the parents won't be in the least bit surprised.

You might want to start by opening the window

gurramok

Use a bit of air freshener?

ThOnda

Make a draft, open oposite windows. And pray for the best.
STAY AT HOME while the windows are open!!!
And NEVER EVER play with open fire again. Be glad your house is not a pile of ashes.

Take a dump in the hallway. It probably won't get rid of the smell of petrol, but at least they'd be less mad about that.

Rice will absorb the smell, just rip a hole in a bag of rice and run around the house like a lost pigeon with the bag taped to your head, the rice will absorb the smell, jobs oxo

While looking in the fridge for some onions I found a few cloves of garlic, their now being made into garlic butter. That should cover the smell nicely. :cool:

Do you have a dog? If so, douse the dog in petrol and set it on fire. a) Your parents will be more worried about the dog than anything You can say the dog got at the petrol and then wandered up towards the fire.

Note: Also works with cats/siblings.

Do no attempt to remove it with anything.
Do not attempt to burn it off!!!
Do not rub the carpet - static electricity could cause it to ignite.

Petrol's highly flammable / explosive. What you did could have gotten you seriously badly burned or set the house on fire.

Petrol stinks because it's quite volatile, it will evaporate fairly quickly.

You will need to open the windows and keep the area well ventilated until it disappears.

When it is fully dried up (after a few days) if there's any remaining smell, I would suggest you get the carpets shampooed.

You'll just have to tell the parents that you spilt petrol on the carpet. I don't really think there's any other way around it.

Perhaps you can come up with some elaborate explanation as to how it happened!

You've come dangerously close to being shortlisted for the Darwin Awards !

It's the parents I feel sorry for. When they get home and realised they've raised a pair of fools.

In my opinion you will not be able to get rid of the smell of petrol, so if I was you I'd come at the situation from a different angle: Empty the contents of your dad's wallet, then tie yourself to a chair, naked, infront of the fire. put an apple in your mouth and gag yourself with a piece of rope over the apple. When your parents come home and untie you tell them robbers threatened to burn you and the house down if you did not give them the wallet.

As a result of your lies you will not get in trouble for the smell of petrol and depending on your fathers financial circumstances you could be a lot richer!

IMPORTANT

Petrol fumes are also highly flammable in an enclosed space.

Ensure you keep ALL THE WINDOWS OPEN and do not use anything electrical, don't smoke, don't light anything.

I am not kidding, this is really quite a dangerous situation. Those fumes are as dangerous as a gas leak in certain circumstances.

I would actually suggest that you get in touch with the local fire station for advice on what to do

You're lucky you didn't manage to throw the petrol into the fire. You'd be in hospital now facing months in a burns unit.

Just have to clear a few things up: the fire was completely gone out when I threw the petrol in it's a stove job and there's a big slab of stone in front of it. I also couldn't get the petrol stain to burn any more after I singed my eyelashes so I reckon the house is safe enough.

I'm now eating some garlic toast and drinking another can, it's been an eventful night.

That may make you attempt something stupid later.

Yep, it may make me go to the pub seeing as it's my last and I have a serious thirst now

The parents were none the wiser about the petrol last night but they were asking about the smell of garlic

Just keep farting around the fire place, that'll sort it out.

Dirty protest is the only way I'm afraid.

Jesus Christ. I thought me and my brother were thick when we were left alone together. Do keep us informed of your next quiet night in.

Don't ever take up babysitting.

I'm actully more concerned that you thought it was a good idea to throw petrol onto an open fire OP. If that is actully what really happened.

How closely related are your parents ? Cousins ?
