RE: Getting Rid of Urine Odor in Bathroom
I use bleach and water. Clorox Clean Up works well. It may take a few dousings to totally eliminate the smell. It also gets pet odors out of rugs but you need to thoroughly wash out your steam cleaner afterwards. I used a half a cup of bleach to my steamacleaner along with the carpet cleaner and water.

I'm not so sure bleach will work. I have poured bleach around the toilet, let it set, then do a thorough cleaning and the next day or so the smell is back.

I use the recipe I got from http://caturineoff.com. It works so well for cat pee - I'm sure it'd work just as well for little boys' pee as well.
My son seems to have trouble hitting the target - I put a ping-pong ball in the loo - they aim for the ball & try to sink it - of course it doesn't sink so it's brilliant - no more misses (make sure it doesn't have a hole tho).

I discovered an awesome product. It is called sol-u-mel. It is a product from a company named melalueca. I have gotten fingernail polish off of a winter coat with this product. I also put it in my carpet shampoo-er to kill my pet odors, blessed pooches.

I read on here several months ago to use peroxide. I have done that and the dog seems to stay away for awhile. I have also steamed the floor with a steam machine.

This brought me back to when my boys were small.
Thanks!

I believe I would try one of those Enzyme Cleaners that are for Pet Urine. Some of them even have a "Black Light" that will disclose where the urine is hiding. Then you can clean those areas too.
And you know, it might be up under the flooring. And sometimes the toilet is not seated tightly enough against the flooring. You'd never know if there was a small enough place for a liquid to gather just under the toilet itself.
But using the Black Light, you could see if there is liquid standing under the toilet.
You might have to take the toilet up, clean the area around it, replace the Wax Ring, and Re-seat the toilet. You'd be sure to get it cleaned that way.
I had two little boys once, they would see who could AIM the highest on the vinyl shower curtain. So there would be urine rolling down the shower curtain! I would clean and clean, and still never remove the smell. UNTIL, I caught them in the act! Replacing the shower curtain, and a few time outs cured the problem.

I have a potty-training aged little boy and he "misses" quite often. I clean the floor as usual and then sprinkle baking soda around the base of the toilet and brush it as close around the base as possible and let it sit over night. In the morning when I get up, I clean it up with a wet cloth and the smell is gone.

Yuck. After my nephew's visit my bathrooms smelled horrible. I have tile floors and I think that the grout held a lot of smell. I used a product called Simple Solution, which I got at a pet store, and sprayed down the entire area, including the walls!! This worked really well. Also it is very helpful to take the toilet seat off and wash it thoroughly ( in a tub ). I thought the smell would never come out of the grout but it did. You may be surprised to see how much grime is on the seat and in the screws which secure it to the bowl. By the way, if you put bleach on urine you end up with an ammonia smell...not good.

Only bleach will get rid of fecal and urine smells successfully.

I purchase a product from Sams Club called Odo Ban. It is great and concentrated so you can mix according to need

I wouldn't recommend bleaching a wood floor. Try covering the area with baking soda and leave it for at least 24 hours then vacuum. You might have to do it more than once. Good luck!

You could try Urine Gone or a similar enzyme type product made for pet urine staina and odors. Cat urine smells worse than human, and this stuff works on cat urine. After you get the smell out. you might want to consider getting a couple of those rugs which fit around the base of the toilet. If someone misses, they hit the rug, not the floor. You can wash the rug easily. I suggest 2 because you can have 1 on the floor while the other is in the wash.
