What is the best way to get gum off of the bottom of a shoe?

Asked by occ (4176points) December 30th, 2010

The gum must be a couple of days old – I didn’t notice it before – so it is not super sticky – I can walk around without having it stick to the floor…but it is still wedged in to the sole of the shoe. I tried using a plastic fork to scrape it off but it didn’t work. Should I use hot water or will that only make it stickier and more gooey?
