Pet Stain & Odour Removal

We adore our beloved pets, and it's not uncommon for them to feel like cherished members of the family. Unfortunately, accidents, such as unintentional urination on rugs or carpets, can occur when you have a dog or cat – a common aspect of pet ownership that is sometimes challenging to avoid. 

Effectively addressing dog and cat urine stains on carpets requires timely intervention and the right equipment. It's crucial never to scrub urine stains; instead, use pet-specific cleaners to remove and neutralize the urine from the carpet fibers. 

Accidents happen from time to time, and there are incorrect ways to handle dog and cat urine on carpets. Discover the do's and don'ts when your pet has an accident and learn how carpet cleaning can work wonders to remedy this issue. 

Does Dog and Cat Urine Damage Carpets? Dog and cat urine, or any urine for that matter, contains corrosive enzymes that produce a foul Odor and can cause unsightly stains on carpets if not cleaned properly. While urine won't outright ruin a carpet, there are many ways people can inadvertently accelerate damage by panicking and attempting to clean the mess incorrectly. 

For instance, using a store-bought cleaner immediately and vigorously scrubbing the liquid can cause the cleaner's chemicals to clash with the potent enzymes of the urine, damaging the delicate carpet Fibers. The Fibers are forced to react to two corrosive elements simultaneously. Instead, the immediate action should be to blot up as much urine as possible using paper towels or an old cloth, wearing gloves during this step. This is also recommended for accidents on furniture to preserve the delicate fabric Fibers. 

Why opt for Carpet Cleaning for Pet Urine? Given the pitfalls of attempting to remove pet urine from a carpet, what is the recommended way to address it? 

Carpet cleaning is always the best approach, as the powerful equipment and steam cleaning technology can effectively tackle both the Odor and potential stains left behind by pet urine.Typically, people try various methods to eliminate the Odor and get rid of the urine when a pet urinates on the carpet. However, store-bought cleaners often prioritize pleasant scents over deep-cleaning action, making the smell worse. Perfumes and scents may mix with the urine, creating an even more unpleasant Odor. The only effective solution is to wash away the compounds causing the smell. 

If urine remnants dry into the carpet, professional carpet cleaning can effectively wash away the remnants completely. It's crucial to soak up as much urine as possible before this step. Steam cleaning employs high-temperature hot water extraction to thoroughly clean, sanitize the area, and neutralize any lingering Odors from the spot. The key to handling urine is not masking the smell with perfumes but thoroughly cleaning and sanitizing the area to restore the rug or carpet to its previous condition.
