Spilled oil on your hardwood floor? No need to panic—that stubborn grease stain can be tackled effectively.
We've all had those frustrating household mishaps. Fortunately, a reliable, natural remedy passed down through generations can restore your floor to pristine condition.
This trusted trick uses Sommières earth, a 100% natural and affordable clay that's gentle on wood surfaces.

1. Blot up as much oil or grease as possible using paper towels, a blotter, or clean rags.
2. Generously sprinkle Sommières earth over the stained area on your wooden floor.
3. Let it sit for at least 2-3 hours, or ideally overnight, to absorb the grease.
4. Gently rub the area with a soft cloth.
5. Vacuum up the residue.
Your grease or oil stain should now be completely gone from the parquet—leaving it spotless! :-)
This method works reliably on raw, waxed, or oiled hardwood floors, and even wooden tables. Perfect for mishaps like spilling olive oil.
Repeat if any trace remains; it's straightforward and effective every time.
Sommières earth is a highly absorbent natural clay that draws grease out like a powerful blotter.
