Pet Odor Days Are Over

Here are a couple tips to get rid of pet accidents and save your belongings:

 

1. First, use water with soap or a detergent to water down and remove as much of the urine as possible. Then rinse the area very well.

 

2. Next, apply straight white vinegar to the area.
-make sure this will not affect the color of your rug or furniture by doing a spot-test first.
Rub the vinegar in very well and allow to dry until the area is just damp. Be sure to wait until the vinegar is nearly dry before applying the baking soda.

 

3. Apply baking soda generously to the damp area and allow to dry completely.

-If baking soda gets too wet, it will make a mess that is hard to vacuum. Once it then dries it can stick to the fabric of a carpet and be hard to fully rinse off. 

 

4. When dry, vacuum thoroughly.
