Default which carpet deodorizer?

Needing to get me a carpet deodorizer, stella seems to have taken a shine to my bedroom floor.

Looked at petsathome website, however they only have the one. Just seeing if there is a good brand I should be looking to get? Anyone have any recommendations? Im from britain too, so would need to be available over here!

Many thanks

Yea, I'd like to know the answer to that too. My eldest daughters Yorkies love peeing on the carpet at the foot of the stairs. I have used almost everything including "No res" professional cleaners and when it is humid there it is pee yuu. I think I may have to ditch it and put something else there.

When Ahi was choosing this one spot to keep going on, I put a plastic runner there. She stopped and realized its on her potty pads she has to go on. Now no accidents on her used to be favorite carpet spot. lol

Nature's Miracle is really good, but it takes awhile to work.

In a pinch, plain old white vinegar does a really good job at deodorizing carpets. For spots, heat some up and pour it on the spot making sure to soak the pad. Let it sit for a bit and then blot it up. The odor will dissipate while it dries. For larger areas, you can use it in your carpet shampooer mixed in with the water.

If you want something with a deodorizer in it Purina makes a good one. I found it in Walmart in the pet department. They make one for carpeting and one for hard floors. Natures Miracle never really got the smell out for me but the Purina brand has an nice deodorizer right in it and worked very well for me when Gracie was a puppy.

Lightbulb I use these and they have worked well...

Mojo had 1 pee accident on our bedroom carpet the first day we got him home and 2 pee accidents in our living room after he was given a cortisone shot and lost temporary bladder control and these products worked GREAT! He has shown no inclination to return to these spots, and acts like he doesn't smell a thing where they were, so it must be good! You can buy all of these at wal-mart. First use old towels to soak up as much of the urine as you can. Then spray WOOLITE PET URINE ELIMINATOR ( found in the carpet cleaning section, NOT pets dept. ) on the spot. Make sure you spray this all around the outside of the pee spot too cause the urine spreads and doing this ensures you will cover every single bit of the scent. Let it sit for 5-10 mins. Then soak this up with more clean old towels or dish cloths. You can either let it finish air drying, or you can blow dry it so it dries up quick and the heat will help kill the scent there too. After it's dry, spray something called OUT! INDOOR/OUTDOOR REPELLENT, found in pet section. Let dry and it should be good to go. I always use ARM AND HAMMER PET FRESH CARPET ODOR ELIMINATOR with vaccuum booster and oxy clean dirt fighters about once a week anyway, so this also helps if you have large areas that have been soiled. The 2 first items have worked everytime and Mojo doesn't even stop to smell those spots!!! Hope this helps.

I use Oreck products. They seem to do the trick. They are strong but smell clean, not like chemicals.

I be looking for it next time I'm near a home depot! It's good to have other options, just in case. The small town near me only has a wal-mart so I'm limited to what I can buy, but we do get to a larger town every couple months. I keep an on-going list for things we can't get here, and I'll be sure and put this on it!

I bought a small steam cleaner for about $80.00. With pets it's always something. Mine love to spill things, too. Anyway it is the best investment I have made in a while. It's a Bissell and I use the Bissell pet odor remover solution. It has a really good suction on it and gets everything up and the carpet dries fast. It's not big like some steam cleaner and you just use hot tap water. Does a great job for spot cleaning or you can do a small room with it.

Lot of good suggestions. I use product called Urine Off. Order it off internet from Dr. Foster & Smith. Also have a black light that I use for finding new/old potty accidents.
Even tho I like urine off, think I'll try couple of the above suggestions. And, might look into the steam cleaner. Sounds like good idea. I'm for anything that works.
Thanks for all the good ideas.

Default Master of the pee scene!

Ok folks, you are now in my area of expertise! Lets just keep in mind that all our babies are different, sooooo what may work for some may not work for others, or as I usually find what works for everyone else never works for me! However, I really think I have this down to a T!!

1. Bissell (as mentioned above) this Bissell is an upright no hoses just for carpeting, although for a little more you can get one with an attachment for floors) I purchased mine at Walmart for $80 dollars on sale. This machine takes 5 mins to put together, you will need a phillips head screw driver for the 3 screws.

2. Gate, if possible, gate the room where your baby soiled.

3. Odo Ban (NOT THE PET FORMULA) it comes in 2 scents.

4. 1/4 cup white vinegar.

5. Out spray, found in pet section.

6. Large basket with a snuggly blanket or a regular bed pillow, or something else they can't move!

Step 1. Clear the entire area of any debris, toys etc. (no need to move furniture unless you suspect they are soiling there)

Step 2. Fill the Bissell solution container with the vinegar 1 cup water and the rest with Odoban. I use hot (not burning hot) water. (my mom heats all ingredients in a bowl in microwave, again NOT burning hot).

Step 4. Attach solution container to Bissell and vac away, going over the soiled areas several times. Refill container as many times as necessary based on size of your work area. when you are almost done go over the rug several times without squeezing the trigger! This will suction up most of the wetness.

Step 5. Leave the room and keep your baby out! You may want to open/crack a window.

Step 6. In about 2-3 hours, when carpet is dry, spray previously soiled areas with OUT, then the entire carpeted surface. Let dry about 30 mins to 1 hour.

Step 7. Place a basket, pillow or other item on the area that they favor and leave it there for a couple of days!

Step 8. Remove gate and play away!

Seems like a lot here right? This process takes about 20-30 mins and is the only thing that works for me.

Miss Mini (almost 7 years old) never soils my carpets anymore. I do this every week.

Miss Mia (12 weeks) soiled my carpet. I have gated the room and did the process immediately.

I keep my Bissell handy because it is that easy. You can use it immediately upon soiling an small areas too! no need to grab paper towels just keep your bissell handy.

Good Luck
Lynn
