How to Get Creepy Crawler Glue Out of Carpet

Creep Crawler Plasti-Goop is used in conjunction with the Creeper Crawler oven and molds to create insects and other creepy crawlers. The slimy, goop-like substance is poured into the molds and solidified into a soft plastic critter while baking in the oven. If the plastic goop is squirted into the carpeting the resulting gooey stain must be removed promptly. While the Creepy Crawler goop won't solidify in your carpet, it leaves a sticky stain that becomes a dirt magnet.
