I just spent thirty minutes of my life cleaning ds's multiple booger walls. It's bad enough that he does this to his own bedroom wall and the bathrooms, but the hallways??
But thanks to the BBB, I have the technique down now! I used a spray bottle with warm water, let them soak a bit and wiped them off. It was easy in the bathrooms due to the glossy paint, but the regular paint didn't fare as well. Probably should have used some type of cleaner on those but I didn't have the energy to figure it out.
I will admit I'd let it go for a long time, but if he starts it again

I don't know if you can buy Lestiol where you live, but I use a very diluted mix of that and water to get Dolly's boogers off the flat wall paint In her room. Grossest kid ever.

I would do this, too, I always make DS clean his messes, and it usually dissuades him from doing it again. I agree, gross! I have a cousin who did that even as a teenager! Originally Posted by urquie

Ive never heard of booger walls. My kids' usually go straight from nose to mouth. They dont like to waste any.
