    I just used my flour sifter and they worked marvelously as well. Curious though if there’s a certain time the baking soda should stay on the carpets to be effective?

    You can use a paperpunch and make holes in the top of a mason jar and screw it on and have a shaker jar too.

    you could also reuse an empty spaghetti cheese shaker instead of buying one.
