Removing dog or cat urine from carpet, concrete, upholstery, or clothing is a relatively easy task.

The key to successfully removing dog or cat urine from carpet is treating the area with a quality bacterial product.

Using bacteria specifically designed to consume urine is the only permanent solution in removing all traces of urine embedded within carpet, concrete, clothing, or any water-safe material.

Reasons why you may have failed to remove urine odors

"Ready-to-use enzyme cleaners are diluted with water and have a relatively short shelf life, as little as three months, depending on the formulation."

Because ready-to-use enzyme cleaners are diluted with water, they require the use of preservatives, and many companies use harsh chemicals like propylene glycol, a skin and eye irritant, and other neurotoxic glycol ethers such as butyl cellosolve.

But you can avoid harsh preservatives to a certain degree by purchasing enzyme concentrates, which, because of their lower water content, require fewer preservatives.

Do be aware that, as a general rule, ready-to-use enzyme cleaners have a relatively short shelf life, as little as three months, depending on the formulation

Locate exactly where the urine odor is emanating from. For best results, use a florescent black light in total darkness. The stains will appear as a greenish hue.
Mix 1 part (1 cup) Odorfix Plus to 10 parts (10 cups) water. The 16 oz. size of Odorfix Plus makes 5 quarts when diluted according to instructions.
For each stained area pour 1-2 cups of the mixed solution onto the carpet. Allow the mixture to soak into the carpet for 24 hours.

If the cat urine in the carpet is wet or damp to the touch, remove the urine by placing paper towels over the stain and pressing firmly with your feet to absorb as much as the urine from the carpet. Repeat with dry paper towels until most of the urine has been absorbed.
