DO test any cleaner you want to use on an inconspicuous part of the carpet or flooring first, if it’s one you haven’t used before, to make sure it won’t harm it.DON’T use an ammonia-based cleaner - ammonia is actually a component of urine, and any trace of ammonia scent is like telling your pet “This is a great place to pee!”.The heat can actually bond the proteins in the urine or other pet waste to the fibres of your carpet or floor - making the stain and smell next to impossible to remove. DON’T use a steam cleaner, whatever you do.A wet vac is great for this if you have one the rest of us can just blot with paper towels. The less is left, the easier your job will be. DO get rid of as much liquid as possible first, before using any cleaning products.DO clean up dog or cat pee as quickly as possible! The longer you let it sit, the more it will soak in, and the harder it will be to get the area entirely clean and odour-free.Dos & Don’ts for Cleaning Up Pet ‘Accidents’
Whatever the cause, most of us have at some point had to figure out how to get cat or dog pee out of a carpet- or off of hardwood or other flooring. Maybe your cat’s stressed out from a move, maybe you didn’t get home in time to let your dog out, maybe you’ve just adopted a new puppy or kitten and they haven’t quite got the whole house training thing down yet, maybe you just moved into a place where the previous occupants had a pet with a problem… Cats and dogs may offer us warmth, companionship and unconditional love, but sometimes they gift us with something a little less desirable - right in the middle of the carpet or floor.
