So, how have you planned to remove pet urine odor from your carpet? Try these proven methods from Pet Odor Removal Long Island, New York for cleaning up stains and getting rid of pet odor.

Act immediately

First of all, clean up the urine that might be still wet. If the urine dries, it has the tendency to stain the carpet, thereby increasing bacterial growth. To best remove the stain, pile up layers of several paper towels over the wet area. Apply pressure by walking or standing on the paper towels so that they absorb as much liquid as possible. If you entirely remove the wet urine, the smell is reduced.

Neutralize the odor

For set in stain removal, make a vinegar cleaning solution that consists of one part vinegar and one part plain water. The vinegar solution is preferred, as it neutralizes the ammonia smell, ultimately making it a good choice for cleaning your carpet.

After the solution is prepared, slowly pour it on the stained area of the carpet. Ensure that it reaches deep inside the fibers to completely neutralize the area. After the carpet absorbs the solution for 10 minutes, with the help of the paper towel, soak up the liquid.

Once the carpet is completely dry, (which may take several hours) sprinkle a small amount of baking soda on the stained area to absorb the odor. Allow the baking soda to settle in the carpet for 10-15 minutes and then vacuum it. This should definitely remove pet odor from the carpet.
