Homemade Pet Stain and Odor Removal

RE: Homemade Pet Stain and Odor Removal By exring (9) Profile Contact I checked the bio-spotter web site and no where does it say anything about removing urine odor just stains. It has been my personal experience with all kinds of urine stains on carpet that if you remove them before they dry using just water and a water tolerant vacuum like a shop vac, the stain and most of the odor causing residue is removed completely. If you wait too long, the urine changes and the resulting salt bonds to the carpet and can not be washed away with anything. It must be neutralized in place. Its called OdorXit Concentrate.

It did not cost much so I would suggest looking into this product versus making your own. Posted on 03/01/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Pet Stain and Odor Removal By m.V. (Guest Post) I used to clean the spot with my carpet shampooer and then after it dried completely pour alcohol and then the smell would be gone, that worked for the past 6 years of having my dog but this last time it did not work. The stain was there for a while before I discover it and I am struggling with the smell. The odor she gets the stronger the smell so I"m going to give this vinegar and water mix a try since every site I have check has had more than one person recommend it. I have never had that pet odor in my house so this is devastating for me, a person who loves a great smelling house and loves to host get togethers at my house. Thanks all! Try the alcohol thing though, it probably still works on fresh stains that are not sitting there forever.

Any suggestions for getting the urine and smell out of hardwood? We also have a cat that has a behavior problem we have a tile floor in the bathroom and the cat continues to pee by the bathtub. Any suggestions? Please help! Posted on 01/16/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Pet Stain and Odor Removal By PuppyMom (Guest Post) Thanks for all the info!! I have been spending tons of $$ on store odor removers and still have not gotten rid of the stains/odors. I like the environmentally friendly suggestions. Posted on 09/11/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Pet Stain and Odor Removal By Deborah K. Millemaci (Guest Post) Are any of these remedies harmful to dogs or cats? And will they work on set-in stains? The reason I ask is that our shepard-chow is elderly and will sometimes "dribble" on the carpet. I just want to make sure she won't be harmed in any way.

Posted on 09/04/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Pet Stain and Odor Removal By toni (Guest Post) I have tried vinegar for puppy spots, works great for them. 1/2 vinegar and 1/2 water in spray bottle, place a rag on top and something heavy to pull it out. I'm trying to find out if I can use vinegar in my carpet cleaner to do the whole carpet. Does anyone know for sure? Posted on 07/24/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse Mattresses and a naughty cat By Raiwvynn (Guest Post) Need suggestions for getting cat pee out of the mattress. Don't know why she suddenly is doing this. I have been covering the bed in a tarp and avoiding this since she started it two weeks ago, vet says there is nothing medically wrong, little box is clean but she must be mad about something. Any suggestions cause I don't want to sleep on a smelly bed and throwing out a brand new mattress just sucks. Posted on 07/15/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Pet Stain and Odor Removal By GMC (Guest Post) I sprinkled baking soda on a spot where my cat inexplicably decided to pee. I then filled my steam cleaner with 2 parts white vinagar to 4 parts hot H2O. I waited about 5 minutes and vacumed it up (with the steam cleaner) No smell..No stain. Hurray!!

Posted on 05/29/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Pet Stain and Odor Removal By alex D (Guest Post) I found that 1 cup hydrogen peroxide, 1 tb. baking soda and 1 tsp. dishwashing liquid also works well! Posted on 05/26/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Pet Stain and Odor Removal By jeff (Guest Post) Just by clean-n-brite and it makes gallons of pet stain remover and you don't have to worry about permanently messing up your carpet. I used it at wright patterson to clean up coffee stains on 4,000,00000 square feet of carpet. No, I didn't see the alien craft or ufos in the underground facility. Posted on 05/01/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Pet Stain and Odor Removal By crazyliblady (15) Profile Contact Just a thought. Using peroxide may possible work to remove stains and odor, however, you should test it in an area that normally can't be seen. Peroxide can also bleach out color. Posted on 03/31/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Pet Stain and Odor Removal By mrsjpn (Guest Post) I agree w/ mamajuice43: all you need to use is white vinegar(I use 1/2 water, 1/2 vinegar in a spray bottle) then press any stains inwards so as to make them smaller not bigger; and for over all freshing sprinkle baking soda on your whole carpet a couple hours before vacuuming. Try to avoid walking on it before vacuuming it up and avoid hardwood floors. Posted on 03/31/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Pet Stain and Odor Removal By Jessica (Guest Post) I tried equal parts vinegar and hot water. It seemed to get the odor, but there is some staining left behind. I will probably try the baking soda mixture and see what happens. Worst case I'll buy some cleaner at the store. I have also found that it's good to rent the Rug Dr. every 6 months or so. I found it picks up any odor or stains, I can't get with spot cleaning, and it doesn't cost very much.

From the time you enter the hallway, you smell cat! It's horrible. Does anyone have tips for whole house pet (cat) odor elimination? I really need some help! Thank you!

No soap, detergent or other cleaner until after you have doused it with straight undiluted VINEGAR. Posted on 01/27/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Pet Stain and Odor Removal By gator10tx (49) Profile Contact First blot up as much of the liquid, or solid, as possible; I use paper towels. Then sprinkle on baking soda. Atop that put a dilute mix of white vinegar + water; about 1:4 is good here. These two items will bubble 'n fizz while it works. Let the stuff sit there several minutes, depending on how severe is your stain... you'll get better at deciding how long with experience. This gets rid of the smell and the stain. Repeat if necessary.

Mix it well. Put on stain and let dry. When it dries, brush off. Posted on 09/27/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Pet Stain and Odor Removal By starlight (5) Contact I clean up the messes good and then pour vinegar on the spot and blot it up - I don't have any odors...so you may want to give it a try - the smell of the vinegar will go away quickly.... Posted on 09/27/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Pet Stain and Odor Removal By irishkilbride (1) Contact Using any plastic container (not metal) mix the solution as follows: 12 oz. 3% hydrogen peroxide 1/2 teaspoon ajax dishwashing liquid soap 1 1/2 teaspoon A & H baking soda Mix well using a plastic spoon (not metal). If you have a large area or more than one area to clean you may want to use a bigger bowl and mix enough solution according to your needs. Once it is mixed put into your empty plastic bottle. Always discard unused portion because the oxygen in the peroxide mixed with these other items can make it explode. You have to find all the old stains and odors because they give off an odor to your dog or cat that has them coming back to. If you have a black light shut off all the lights in your home and turn on the black light. The urine in the carpet or on the furniture will glow. Once you find the urine spots, then pour the solution evenly on the whole spot, making sure to saturate the carpet and the padding under the carpet ( you may want to do a spot test on your carpet or furniture first.) Once the whole urine area is saturated block it off to keep people or your pets from walking on it until it is completely dry. Do not blot up any of the formula because the stains need to be saturated thoroughly and then dry on its own. After it has dried, vacuum spot to remove any white powder left over from the baking soda. Scotch guarded carpet takes a while to absorb the liquid, but after it sits there awhile it will absorb into the carpet and padding. You may have to pour a little extra solution on this type of carpet. It may take a few days to clean room by room but it will be well worth it in the end. If you have large areas to clean you can even mix up enough of this to go in a carpet cleaner and clean all spots at once. Posted on 09/27/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Homemade Pet Stain and Odor Removal By mamajuice43 (8) Contact Baking soda should help. It removes odours from your fridge and laundry. Sprinkle it on and let it sit for awhile before vacuuming. Posted on 09/25/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse
