Halloween is all fun and games—until you’re left with sticky candy on the floor, glitter everywhere, and mysterious stains from costumes and makeup. If your home looks a little haunted after the festivities, don’t worry—we’ve got you covered.
Here’s your ultimate Halloween cleanup guide to tackle candy, glitter, face paint, and even fake blood like a pro.
🍬 Candy Cleanups
Carpets & Rugs: If candy gets squished into the carpet, place an ice cube on top for a few minutes to harden it. Then gently scrape it off before blotting with a mild dish soap solution.
Hard Floors: Warm water and vinegar will lift sticky spots easily. Wipe dry to avoid slippery patches.
✨ Glitter Removal
Floors & Furniture: Use a lint roller or tape to pick up glitter (it works better than a vacuum!).
Clothes & Fabrics: Toss items into the dryer on a cool cycle with a dryer sheet—this loosens glitter before you wash.
🎨 Face Paint Stains
Upholstery: Mix dish soap and cold water, then blot gently with a cloth. Avoid scrubbing, which can spread the stain.
Clothing: Pre-treat with a stain remover before washing in cold water. Repeat if necessary.
🩸 Fake Blood Spills
Clothing & Fabric: Cold water is your best friend—rinse immediately, then wash with an oxygen-based cleaner.
Carpet & Upholstery: Blot with cold water and dish soap. For stubborn stains, hydrogen peroxide can help lift the red tint.
Pro Tips for a Stress-Free Halloween Cleanup
Keep a “cleaning caddy” nearby with wipes, paper towels, and a small spray bottle of all-purpose cleaner.
Act fast—the quicker you treat a stain, the easier it is to remove.
For larger messes or when the party aftermath feels overwhelming, let the pros handle it.
