Getting gum stuck
on clothes, carpet or hair is something that moms have to
deal with at one time or another, unless you ban gum from
your household entirely.
If the gum is on
clothing, simply place the entire garment into your freezer.
Once it is frozen, you can "chip" it off, bend the
garment (and frozen gum) to flake it off or pull it off.
If the gum is on
something you can't place into the freezer (carpet, hair,
furniture), place an ice cube into a plastic bag, then place
it on the gum. Once it is frozen, you can pull simply pull
it off.
