Arrrrrhhhh! Your mother-in-law is on the way, and Kitty just sprayed the carpet in the dining room! No time to rent a steamer, too late to rip the carpet! What to do?
The main directive to remove the smell of a cat's cat is to get to it quickly! This is especially important with carpets - the longer the urine sets, the more it saturates the pad under the carpet, and the harder it will be to destroy the smell. And, speaking of saturation, remember that to remove the smell you need to clean the area larger than the visible color. In fact, the area impregnated with a carpet is probably about twice the size of the stain on the carpet.
Do not just dip the stain with the first household cleaner you can rely on - never use ammonia or anything that contains ammonia. Not only will he not be able to remove the smell, the ammonia scandal may actually induce the cat to urinate there!
Here are twelve simple, cheap, and effective ways to remove the smell of skin urine using common household items:
- Scrub with full strong white vinegar.
- Scrub with shaving cream.
- Scrub with brown.
- Dip the area with hydrogen peroxide and work well in the fibers. Not only does peroxide destroy urine residue and eliminate odors, it will also act as a fungicide and will keep the area from sour or moldy when it dries.
- Soak the area without sugary water.
- Cover the area with baking soda paste, water, a dash of regular dishwashing liquid and a small amount of hydrogen peroxide. Work into the fiber with a brush. Let dry and dry.
- Scrub with thick paste from dishwasher detergent and water. Let dry and dry.
- Scrub-area with a thick paste of biological washing powder and water. Let dry and dry.
- If the problem area is not soaked, covered with a cloth or delicate, first rinse it thoroughly and then spray it with a weak solution of water bleach (about 10 parts of water to one part bleach). Let it briefly stop, then wipe off. It works well on cement floors! You will smell a little bleach, but it defeats the alternative.
- Scrub with baking soda paste and dish detergent.
- Absorb as much moisture as possible, scrub with your favorite mixture, and then spray the area with lemon juice.
- Wipe the area with naphthalene or citronella to prevent cats from returning to the area
