How to Handle Pet Stains

If you have pets then you will eventually have to deal with pet stains. It's almost inevitable. There are a number of reasons why your pet can have an accident on your carpet. Maybe you got tied up at work and didn't make it home on time to let Scruffy out. Or maybe your pet is a bit older and can't hold it as long as they used to. Whatever reasons there are solutions to help get these spots and stain out of your carpet after they've happened.

It's been said over and over and forever but it still remains the most important part of pet stain removal. The faster you can get to the spot the better chance you have of totally removing it. The thing with pet stains is that it is a biological substance. There are a number of bacteria that are at work and the longer you leave them to their task the worse it will get for you and your carpet.

Now the handiest tool for pet stains is a shop vac. The first thing you want to do when you encounter a pet accident is to use the shop vac to extract as much of the urine as possible. If your pet went number two then you obviously want to pick that up with a paper towel rather than vacuum it up. But extracting the liquid will, for one, make your clean up much easier. You will then actually be cleaning up the spot rather than a puddle of urine. Otherwise you are just adding whatever cleaning agent you are using to a puddle and that's not what you want to do. We are looking to remove, not add.

After you extract you can use a number of different cleaning agents. You may choose an over the counter spot remover, a mixture of water and a mild soap, or even water and white vinegar. Whichever route you choose the most important thing to remember is to blot the stain. Do not ever rub a stain, of any sort. Apply your cleaner and blot the stain with a clean towel. Rinse with plain water and then extract with your shop vac. Repeat these steps as necessary until the problem area is no more.

If the pet stain has been in your carpet for a long period of time then you may want to use an enzyme spot remover or a mixture of the water and vinegar. Spray the solution over the area and let it break down the stain for about 20-30 minutes. This will allow the enzymes to digest the bacteria that are creating the odor.

If for any reason you are not sure about a stain feel free to contact a local carpet cleaning business and consult with them about it. It's better to be safe than sorry and you definitely don't want to ruin your carpet by trying something you're not sure of.
