How to Remove Pet Stains from Carpet
Owning
a pet brings a great deal of joy to countless people. Is there anything better
than being greeted at the end of a hard day to your dog’s wagging tail? What’s
more relaxing than cozying up on the couch with a book or a movie with your cat
purring beside you?
But
unfortunately, every good thing in life comes with its drawbacks. And when it
comes to pets, those drawbacks come in the form of stains on the carpet. We’ve
all been there. Your pet can’t make it outside quickly enough, and before you
know it, you have an accident in the house. And sometimes those accidents are
hard to clean up! Not only that, but urine and excrement stains that remain on
your carpet and floors can lead to the growth of harmful bacteria and mold over
time. That’s why pet stains from accidents in the house must be removed as
quickly as possible. Fortunately, there are plenty of ways to make that happen
so you can get back to enjoying those tail wags and couch snuggles with your
furry friends.
Here
are a few effective ways to remove pet urine from the carpet in your home.
For Fresh Stains
The Humane Society recommends soaking up as much of
the urine as possible with a thick layer of paper towels. Have this padding
remain on the stain for at least a minute (or until the area is barely damp)
before rinsing the stain with clean, cool water. Blot it dry and you’re good to
go!
For Set Stains
You
might want to rent a carpet cleaner from a local hardware or grocery store for
more extreme cases or for stains that have been sitting for an extended period
of time. Using a pet enzyme to help remove stubborn stains, or a mixture of white vinegar and water (50/50) may help with set stains as well.

doing any of the above sounds like too much work (or, frankly, if it sounds
like too dirty a job for you to handle) trust your friends and experts at Wolf Brothers CarpetCleaners.
