How do I get rid of Animal Urine in my carpets?,besides replacing the carpet.?

Answer 1

A great product that I found you can get at dollar stores and it's called Awesome which is good on all kinds of stains, but here's a great link to give you answers http://www.geyservac.com/information/clean-animal-urine.html

Also it's a good idea to rent a commercial carpet cleaner once a year and clean your carpets yourself unless you want to pay someone to do it

Answer 2

Hi
For just a few spots

Nature’s Miracle should work. It is available at Petsmart. Make sure you follow the direction. The main reason that it fails is that people just sprays it on and wipe it up and not let it soak into the carpet and pad like the urine did. You may need to do this 2 or 3 time. Just reminder that the urine treatment product needs to go where the urine went for it to work properly. After you clean the spots, you should shampoo the carpet using this product on the front and back of rug.


For really bad urine smell

First thing you need to know is that urine is classified as carpet damage. 90 % of the urine sits in the under pad and that is the hardest to remove. This is the reason you smell it when you wet it. In most cases if you can smell it it’s pass the point of treating from the surface. To clean it properly it is a fairly big job

Things you will need: carpet-cleaning machine.
Chemical for removing urine I recommend (Nature's Miracle is a liquid containing enzymes that feed on the organisms that give urine its odours.), which you can buy at a pet store. (Some people have use vinegar (one part vinegar to five parts water)

New under pad for the carpet

1/ lift the carpet where you think the urine is. You can tell from the bottom side of the carpet by the watermarks. You will need to extract the backside of the carpet with the urine remove treatment product.
2/ cut out the entire infected under pad and wash the floor with the urine treatment.
3/replace the under pad with the new stuff
4/ as you are laying the carpet back down treat the top of the carpet with the urine treatment.
5/ When the carpet is all back you will need to clean the all of the carpet with the urine treatment product. Just reminder that the urine treatment product needs to go where the urine went for it to work properly.
In my experience, Nature's Miracle is your best bet. Good luck!

The biggest problem is that it can get into the pad underneath the carpet, so even if you get the carpet clean, it will still be in the pad (and still smell). We use this stuff called "Out" and you soak the area with it then let it set before you try to clean it. This allows the product to get to the pad.

Otherwise, a good carpet cleaning may be in order (tell them you have pet stains - they have special products for this).

Answer 4

Depending on the amount of carpet that needs to be cleaned I have something that works better than anything else I have ever tried. Honest to God it works miracles! Very simple. Make this solution and give it a try.

2 cups of white vinegar
3 tablespoons of baking soda ( not baking powder)
1 teaspoon of dish detergent.

I have used it on animal urine and more recently in my car when my son spilled milk and now I can sniff as hard as I can and not smell a thing. I was shocked. Good luck!

Answer 5

Nature's Miracle. You can buy a black light from Nature's Miracle that will show you where the stains are. Saturate the carpet thoroughly with Nature's Miracle (padding too). And let it dry. Then have your carpets steam cleaned (by someone like Stanley Steamers) so that the areas are deeply penetrated and then the dirty stuff extracted. Have them deodorize the carpet after cleaning. Let the area dry with alot of fresh air for 24-48 hours.
