“Use a lot and take your time then clean more then once with normal degreasing floor cleaner.
“Please don’t put neat washing liquid down you will make it worse.”
Elaine Jones agreed and said: “Salt then let the salt soak up the oil.
“Brush it in and if it needs more salt add then repeat if needed. Then wash with hot soapy water.”
Facebook user Lynne Williams said: “Salt, cheaper the better, sprinkle over before bed, have a kitchen roll ready to clear a path to the kettle in the morning.”
Social media user Rachel Storey commented on the post: “Salt, I work in a kitchen.
“Sprinkle it on and leave it a while to soak up the oil. Then just sweep it up all.”
Hayley Duncan suggested the same. She said: “Salt to soak it up then washing up liquid and clean after a while.”
Mandy Lowe replied: “Salt is best. Soaks up oil and brush off, then reapply if needed.”

Other Mrs Hinch fans had other suggestions including using bicarbonate of soda and hand sanitiser.
Lindsey Annis commented: “Alcohol hand gel. Squirt it all over the greasy area and wipe.
“If still a bit slippery, repeat. Works every time.”
Facebook user Kirsty Leather said: “Sprinkle baking soda on the stained area.
“Wait for at least an hour for the baking soda to soak up the grease.
“Then gently wipe the area using a cloth dipped in warm, soapy water.”
Jenna McCallum Brady said: “When I worked in restaurants if oil was spilt you covered it in flour, allowed it to soak up and then vacuumed it up.
“Afterwards you wash with a degreaser, I recommend HG Oven, grill and BBQ cleaner.
“I do the same at home and it works perfectly every time.”
