How do you clean a matress that has been peed on and spill on ?

Answer 1

Well...if you REALLY want to use that mattress....lol.....
you can rent a steam/carpet cleaner, look in the yellow pages for rental facilities. ( Around here, we can rent them from our Shop-n-Save and Giant Eagle grocery stores.)
You could also just buy a smaller steam cleaner vaccum for upholstery.(they're great for cars to!)
But other than burning it....steam cleaning is probably the only way to salvage it.

Answer 2

Use the attatchment on your carpet cleaner. use a good deep cleaner and add oxy clean and when your done i would still spray it with lysol and febrez. but it should work as long as it hasnt been p'd in a thosands times. :)

How to remove pee stains from a mattress.
This is it! The web page the world has been waiting for!

We have been inundated with requests for help with getting pee stains out of mattresses (urine) over the years of running this site. We have now compiled an effective solution to removing pee stains that has no need for expensive equipment or products.
We hope you find it useful - please give us your feedback and share your experiences.

The mistake people commonly make when cleaning biological stains like pee on a mattress, is not getting to the root of the problem i.e. the urine has gone deeper than the surface that you are cleaning. All that happens when you clean the surface is a temporary removal of the stain / odour which comes back over time; it is especially noticeable when the humidity rises.

Using hydrogen peroxide (H202) helps to eliminate this problem by tackling both the biological cleaning and the pee stain removal. H202 is a strong bacteriaside. If you can follow the path of the urine with a flush of H202 you can neutralise and destroy any potential bacterial growth from the residual urine.
H202 is also an oxidiser i.e. it removes oxygen. Oxidation will break down the chemicals that form colours (staining) and other products that are part of that stain. When they break down they are released from the bonding that causes them to 'stick' in the fabric and hence the stain is loosened or dissolved.

There are 4 elements that you need to satisfy in order to clean a mattress successfully:

1) Biological cleaning
2) Odour removal
3) Stain removal
4) Drying

There is also a disclaimer!

Hydrogen Peroxide is a mild bleaching agent and may take the colour out of the mattress. Do a spot check first in an inconspicuous area.
Please note, this is NOT a QUICK FIX routine. It takes effort on your part and it takes time - around 2 hours to do a thorough job.

So, if you're still interested, put your pinny on, roll up your sleeves and let's get to work.

Collect together:
A large pile of towels / tea towels or any absorbent, washable fabric
3 % hydrogen peroxide
Bicarbonate of soda (baking soda), borax or some regular washing up liquid
A soft brush or firm sponge

1) Biological cleaning.

You need to remove as much of the urine as possible by blotting it up with towels (You'll get through heaps of them, so be prepared beforehand). If the stain is fresh and wet then just apply lots of towels, lots of pressure (press, DON'T rub) and keep going until no more liquid comes to the surface (You may have to be prepared to keep going for an hour or so).
Once no more liquid comes up you need to saturate the urine with hydrogen peroxide, leave it to work its magic for 5 minutes and blot again with towels until the stain is dry.
If the stain is an old dry one then you can simply skip the initial blotting stage, pour enough H202 to saturate the stain and start blotting until dry.
All the towels can go in a regular machine wash when you have finished with them.

2) Odour removal

Sprinkle on some dry bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) or borax onto the mattress (make sure the mattress is virtually dry at this point otherwise you will end up with a paste that is difficult to remove), work it in gently with a soft brush or firm sponge and leave to work overnight.
Vacuum the dry powder off the following day.

Alternatively, make up a solution of regular washing up liquid (1/2 tsp detergent in a quart of warm water), agitate the water until you have lots of suds and apply the SUDS with a soft brush. Work your way in from the outside of the area you are cleaning and remember to frequently change the suds. Work with an almost dry brush in small areas at a time.

3) Stain removal

The application of H2o2 should already have addressed this, but if you skipped section 2 you may need to gently rub in a little dry borax as suggested if stains still persist. You may find that you need to repeat the entire process from step one if you have not fully succeeded.

4) Drying

It is vital that your mattress is thoroughly dry otherwise you have the ideal breeding ground for bacterial, viral or fungal growth. The best possible way to dry your mattress is outdoors in the sunshine, although we appreciate that is not practical for all. The sun has disinfecting and mild bleaching qualities and the fresh air will help to further neutralise any odours.
If this is not possible you will have to air the mattress thoroughly in the house - preferably by lying the mattress on its side to allow a free circulation of air.
Please don't put your mattress back onto the bed until it is completely dry!
