It’s a furry companion who has left a little gift on your carpet. It’s happened to all of us. The smell can be unwelcome and stubborn. But don’t fret! Here are carpet cleaning before and after to help you get rid of pet stains.

Priority one: time is critical. The faster you tackle the stain, then the more likely it is to be removed completely. If it is still damp, blot the area (don’t scrub!) If it is still wet, blot (don’t rub!) Imagine that you are gently patting your baby’s back. You’re trying to absorb the liquid without spreading any.

You’ll have to rehydrate any dried-up stains prior to cleaning. Pour a little cold water onto the spot, and allow it to sit for a minute. This will loosen up the mess to make it easier for you to remove.

Now let’s discuss cleaning solutions. It’s not always necessary to buy expensive products. Some household items can do wonders. A mixture of equal parts white vinegar and water is a great way to neutralize odours while removing stains. Simply spray on the vinegar, let it rest for 10-15 minutes and then wipe away.

A home remedy that you can use is baking soda, the magical powder found in your pantry. Sprinkle baking soda generously on the affected area following the use of vinegar solution, or whatever cleaner you choose. Let it dry overnight, if possible. Then vacuum thoroughly.

You can also use enzymatic cleaners to combat pet mess. These products are made with natural enzymes, which help break down organic materials such as urine and feces. They eliminate both stains and odors.

What if your problem is more difficult to solve? Use caution when using hydrogen peroxide. First, test it in a hidden area because peroxide may bleach carpets and certain fabrics.

Mix two parts hydrogen peroxide in with one part water. You can also add a couple of drops of dishwashing soap. Pour this mixture on the stain and let it bubble. Then, after 10 minutes, remove the stain by blotting it away.

Ever heard of club soda? Club soda isn’t just for cocktails. You can use club soda to lift stains.

Sometimes DIY cleaning methods may not work, especially if Fido is prone to multiple accidents at the same place. A carpet cleaner designed specifically for pet’s offers a more thorough clean than a regular vacuum or steamer.

You know, prevention can be worth more than gold. Positive reinforcement is a great way to train your pets so that they are aware of their bathroom boundaries within the house.

Do not forget to groom your dog regularly as fur sheds can embed odors into carpets and upholstery, adding another layer that requires attention when cleaning.

You should also wash containers every month to keep the odors at bay.

The next time Fluffy redecorates your rug, keep these tips in mind to ensure that home is a pleasant-smelling place where family and friends can spend quality time together without worrying about unwanted smells wafting across the airwaves.
