    My newish boots are all stinky. :(
    Do you think If I pop them in the microwave it'd kill the bugs?
    Just an idea... Perhaps I'll google when I get back from the chippy.
     
  2. Fabreze them
     
  3. Acid maybe lol
     
  4. Do they have any metal fastenings on them?
     
  5. Its fine to do that. Really.
    Also if youd like some freaky visuals microwave an old cd. Woah lightning man. Or an old style lightbulb (incandescent??). Try it and see its very bizzare.
     
  6. hmmmmmmmmmm ;)

    put bicarb of soda in them.
     
  12. Alternatively, if youre worried about them smelling sweaty, simply take a dump in each boot and hey presto no more sweaty smelling boots

    Pretty sure they microwave rented shoes at the ten pin bowling places?

    Well I've googled now and it's not a good idea.
    Back to the tradditional methods.
    Not had this prob before, but my sons feet STINK and I wonder if he slipped my boots on to nip in the garden or something. :(

    mircrowave my undies when i take them out of the washing machine and i have no time to wait for them to dry, only when the mrs is out tho :)
     
  16. That is the craziest thread title so far.

    Throw them out and get a new pair. Great thread title though as I had to have a look.

  19. Washing machine - works for hubsters work boots but nooooooo to Febreze, unless you want your feet smelling like old ladies knickers...
     
  20. Sprinkle salt in them. Alternative fill a pair of old socks with cat litter, stuff them into the boots and leave over night. This will also work with 2 table spoons of bicarbonate of soda and you can re-use them for future odours. Or you can sprinkle bicarb in directly, leave over night and remove in the morning.
