We all love our pets. There is something about them that
just emphasizes home. They can make us laugh
and put a smile on our faces even when times are tough. They have the natural
tendency to make us love them, but with the responsibilities of owning a pet
whether it is a dog or a cat, comes those pesky things that can make owning a
pet difficult at times.
Along with pet hair, pet urine is one of those irritating
things that can really put a lot of stress on any pet owner. After all, no one
likes the smell and the damage that pet urine can do to your flooring and home.
It is a fact, some pets like to mark their territory or have
mishaps that will leave a dense order that can last for weeks or even be permanent.
It is important to clean up this mess as quickly as possible and utilize the
right methods to do so. Not cleaning up the mess properly can be inviting for
even a bigger mess. It is not uncommon for pets to use their enhanced sense of
smell to revisit the same location and mark the same location, thus creating
stronger smell, and more problems for you the pet owner.

location. If you do not see a stain or can't identify the exact location you

the urine from the carpet. Some people use a towel, while others swear on baking
soda to absorb the urine. A Wet and Dry vacuum may also be a solution to try
