Whatever, you do not use heat on the area that smells like urine. the heat will only make the smell worse. I learned it the hard way!
Try Natures Miracle from a pet store. Also you can get carpet cleaning solution for pet odors. It does work.
does not work..
Try mixing cup water, 2 tbsps of baking soda & 1/4 cup of white vinegar together in a spray bottle. Spray on the stain & rub with a cloth to remove excess moisture, do not use disinfectants as it leaves a lingering small of ammonia which will encourage the cat to keep peeing there.
It exploded lol brought me and my husband back to science class. We laughed so hard...thx
Thanks for the advice, my cats have decided to pee all over the place. Was using water and vinegar only. Will use the new mix, adding baking soda
What is ratio of Peroxide to whitening mouthwash? 50-50? Thanks
Just put the water and vinegar mix on the carpet. Saturate it quite well. Give it about an hour to settle. Then cover the spot with baking soda: about a1/4 " thick. Go back in an hour or 2 and the baking soda will be a disgusting shade of yellow. It pulls the urine out of the carpet. Depending on how deep the urine got, you may have to do this several times.
Oddly enough I've searching for weeks for a home remedy, no chemical type solution for this problem. I've tried several suggestions found all over the place on the web... Some listed mouthwash, others peroxide, vinegar, baking soda, etc. So, fed up with so many options I filled a spray bottle with an entire bottle of peroxide and whitening mouthwash, sprayed away and violá, stink and stain GONE!
Hello my hallway carpet has cat and puppy pee plus stains! They're charging me $200 !! Help! Need to pass my inspection! Asap!
Would this work on upholstery, damn cat, got rid of old couch, hadn't sprayed in years had this couch a yr. Nothing then last week he does it . Do you think that peroxide mouthwash will work.
What's sort if peroxide? Wont that's beach the carpets
How much mouth wash to a "whole bottle of peroxide". 32oz spray bottle.? Regular or larger size peroxide? Small bottle of mouthwash? Amount of ounces will help or a guess. Or fill spray bottle w entire reg sz peroxide then remaining area to top w mouth wash?
What peroxcide did you use? i have been looking online to buy some for this issue and i have been informed that there are varying grades i.e common household peroxcide is normally 3-6% but i can get a commercial peroxcide at 6% or 12% , i dont want to buy the 12% with the thought that it would be better to then find that my carpets and upholstery has been stained or discoloured by this .
I used 50/50 mouthwash and peroxide on a stain, gave it a light rub waited for it to dry then vacumed no stain lovely fresh smell.
She means hydrogen peroxide, the kind you often use on scrapes and stains. It comes in a brown bottle and foams when it comes in contact with organic material.
