I tried to soak some wood in buckets of creosote substiute in the spare

It seemed a good idea at the time.

Without going into details the fact is some was spilt on the floor by
someone else. The spare bedroom has no carpet and now the kitchen below and
the spare bedroom smell. Any ideas how to speed up the drying process. I
have thought about hair dryers or fan heaters with lots of ventilation. The
kitchen ceiling is no problem as it is due to come down this year anyway so
I can remove some plasterboard now.

Replacing the timber affected.

Isn't it illegal now, because it is carcinogenic?

That's probably why he said he was using creosote substiute.
