How to Remove Dog Urine Stain & Dog Urine Smell from Your Carpet
3 step process to rid dog urine stain and smells from carpet:
Lift - Clean - Deodorize
Cleaning Tip: When possible always remove the dog pee stain BEFORE it dries. Once dried, you need to lift up as much of the urine from the carpet, as possible, before adding cleaning solution. If you do not, your dog will re-urinate on and around the area.
Homemade Recipe: Dog Urine Stain and Odor Remover
Lift the Urine:
First use several paper towels and soak up or lift as much of the urine as possible.
If the urine is already dry just skip to the next step;
Next, mix about 1/4 cup of White Vinegar with 1/4 cup Water.
Slowly pour half of it on top of the urine stain and let it soak through.
Place several layers of thick paper towels over the urine stained area and stand on them. Repeat this process until your carpet feels almost dry, and most of the urine has been lifted up.
*Vinegar neutralizes odors
Clean the Area:
Mix one or two drops of *Dawn dish washing soap with 1/4 cup of 3% hydrogen peroxide.
CAUTION: Test your carpet for color fastness!
Using an old toothbrush, scrub some soap mixture into the stained area.
Once again, place several layers of paper towels over the area and stand on them to soak up the excess solution.
Use the other half of the vinegar & water rinse over the clean area to make sure all the soap is lifted and odors neutralized. Blot dry.
Deodorize:
Sprinkle some baking soda on top of the now cleaned area.
Using your fingers or old toothbrush, work the baking soda into the cleaned area.
Let the area dry completely then vacuum.
*cleaning dog tip: You can use any type of cleaner you prefer. Just DON'T use any cleaners containing ammonia. Ammonia breaks down to urea, which is a component of urine. And therefore your Miniature Schnauzer may not be able to resist the urge to urinate on the area again.
