Tips in How to Clean Your Pet’s Mess

May 18, 2009

Pets are nice, they are cute, cuddly and most of the time they are irresistibly lovable.  But these cute creatures can leave little nasty surprises around the house.  A trace of three P’s that is for Poop, Pee and Puke that your pets leave around can be really embarrassing and disgusting.  So, here’s how to remove every trace of the three nasty P’s

POOP

Among the three nasty P’s your pet’s poop is the easiest to handle.  Simply scoop it up and blot the area with the dish detergent solution which is composed of 1 teaspoon of clear or white dish detergent and 1 cup of warm water.  Use a pet-odor remover if necessary.

If the stain remains, try using the ammonia and water solution, then the vinegar and water solution.  Clean the area with soap and water, and treat with an enzyme cleaner.

PEE

Animal urine, especially the cat urine tends to linger with a strong odor.  If you don’t clean it right at the first time, your pet might use that spot again and again.  Pets like dogs and cats have a habit of peeing in the same location which they mark as their peeing territory.  To clean it, wipe up the liquid with a towel then blot it with the solution of 1 tablespoon of ammonia and a 1/2 cup of water.  Blot it again with the solution containing the mixture of 1 tablespoon of clear or white dish detergent and 1 cup of warm water.  

To eliminate the foul smell, you may use an enzyme based pet-odor remover that can be bought in pet’s stores.  If urine had lingered for more than 24-hours, use the mixture of 1/3 cup of vinegar and 2/3 cups instead of ammonia mix mentioned earlier.

PUKE

For pet’s puke, scrape up the mess, and then blot it with detergent solution.  Use the ammonia solution mentioned above to get rid of the stain and use the enzyme-based pet-odor remover if necessary.  Some dog foods can contain red dye that can leave heavy stain on the carpet.  If that happens use a red-dye remover which can be bought on stores, if the stain is stubborn leave the cleaning to the pro.

The method that is right for depends on the traffic your carpet endures and spills and spots children or pets leave. You must consider people’s and pet’s allergies as well as the time it will put your carpeted area out of commission for the cleaning process. Different kinds of carpets are more compatible with certain methods.
