Hi, I'm a homeowner with four cats. One of the older cats seems to be peeing as a defense mechanism against the younger cats. It's often well after the fact before I notice it. I have one of those Bissell home cleaners and have tried that with the "Pet" concentrate. I've also tried the RugDoctor Pro rentals from HomeDepot to clean the stain.

I've also tried a mixture of just bleach and water in a spray bottle, then using a brush to rub it into the carpet. Isn't this enoughj to neutralize the smell and keep the cats from coming back?

My concern was that the bleach would ruin the carpet, but I checked in a small section before really using it, and it's fine.

I'm just really frustrated - I've tried the vinegar/baking soda approach and it hasn't worked and desperate to try anything.

btw, is there a more effective way to determine where a cat has peed? I thought maybe a blacklight would help, but it appears to also light up on the cleaning chemicals I've used that remain in the carpet from the RugDoctor :-(

We use a Water Claw and OdorX Un-Duz-It Unleashed.



Removing pet urine stains from carpet can be labor intensive. Just make sure to charge the customer accordingly.

If you decide to use vinegar, you can also sprinkle it with baking soda. Wait for a bit and then vacuum it up.

To remove the pet stains from the carpet, you should follow steps:

1 Start pouring the vinegar over the stain.
2. Apply the baking soda powder over the affected area. you will hear a crackling sound that means the vinegar starts to react with the baking soda.
3. Keep this solution on the carpet for a few minutes.
4. Once the solution dries up to rub the baking soda and take off into the dustbin.
5. At last, vacuum the carpet properly.

Times are Changing for the Better!

Shaw Floors might just be the company that will bring back the mass flooring installation market to carpets again. Carpeting up until now has not necessarily served the industry and homes very well when it comes to serious spills, stains and odors from pets etc.

Shaw has recently invented the new LifeGuard Waterproof Carpet with waterproof backing, keeping spills, soils and odors within the carpet. This new technology prevents these and other contaminants from seeping into the underlying concrete or wood flooring causing cleaning nightmares to both the owner and the cleaner. This is the major reason why the trend has switched from luxury soft surfaces to hard flooring substitutes.

Made with R2X stain and soil resistance system - taking the worry out before spills seep in - blotting and extraction becomes easier and more effective. This new technology in carpets will allow the cleaner to offer a truly clean and odor free guaranteed carpet cleaning process.

Hats off to SHAW, we as professionals need to support them.
LifeGuard Waterproof Carpet
Beauty + Brains: LifeGuard Gives You Both

Durability and cleanability are important. So are style and design.  You shouldn’t have to sacrifice one for the other.

WATERPROOF. WORRY PROOF.

Flooring made with LifeGuard® waterproof backing is engineered for life's little messes, keeping spills, splatters, and accidents contained for complete clean-up protection.
I'm positive about the negative...and negative about the positive.

So many apartment complexes to clean, so many pet stains...... Never ends. We have our own special powerful concoction that we we've experimented with and put together over the years. Works pretty well, however, I will say some pet stains are a bugger

Are you in a high paying business or are you just a self employed low paid grunt who thinks this business provides dignity?

Then call a PROFESSIONAL CARPET AND UPHOLSTERY TECHNICIAN, annatriumph.  Home remedies are for people with low standards and expectations.  How many urine stains and odor problems have you been paid to address this year?

For New Stains

  • 1

    Remove any excrement and blot the entire wet area immediately and firmly with a clean, white, absorbent towel or cloth.

  • 2

    Pour a small amount of liquid detergent onto the cloth or towel and rub stained area with just enough firmness to remove the stain.

  • 3

    Mix together 1 quart warm water and 1/2 cup white vinegar.

  • 4

    Slowly dribble the mixture onto the stain.

  • 5

    Place several clean, dry, white towels over the stained area.

  • 6

    Walk over the wet area several times to absorb excess moisture.

  • 7

    Place books or other heavy objects over the area.

  • 8

    Allow the objects to stand on the area for 4 to 6 hours.

  • 9

    Remove the towels.

  • 10

    Use a soft-bristled hairbrush to raise the nap of the carpet.
