ummmm - so there's some old pee in DD's carpet

KathrynMDKathrynMD member

DD has had maybe 3-4 accidents in her room at bedtime/getting dressed.  Normally just a tiny bit of pee, but at least once it was a lot.  I quickly cleaned them all up, but eh aparently not well enough, b/c there's a bit of smell issue (ewwww).

What can I do at this point to fix this?  I assume I could get the carpets professionally steam cleaned but I'm not really sure that will fix the pee stink issue.  Also - i really can't visually identify where the stains are at this point since its a pale carpet.

Help please???

    Try the carpet spray for pets. We have a dog and I found that spray helps for kids mess too. If she didn't pee a lot I don't think carpet pads are wet.

    Ditto the pp, also try a solid absorbing air freshener like this:

    I buy scentless ones if I can find them, otherwise the linen scent. They absorb the bad odors. Won't get it out of the carpet, but should take care of the odor until you do.

    I would saturate with 2 parts vineagar, 1part water. blot up, repeat with water.  sniff.  Smell like pee, repeat.  smell like vinegar, repeat ith water. The tricky part is when you saturate it the pee "spreads" out, so make sure you blot all of it well.   Blow dry on warm, sprinkle baking soda, let it sit, vacuum.

    Except for our granite counter tops, I use baking soda and vinegar for everything in our house and haven't found a stain or smell I couldn't get rid of.  Including stinky yellow infant poop that shoots well across a room of white carpet.

    Enzyme cleaner from the pet store.  It will get it out with one application.  It's magic.

    I just used some today to get yet-another "Hey, I take my diaper off when I have a poop and it gets ground into the cream carpet" moment.  

    It's magic.

    You can fix it by using shampoos and vinegar but they are not that much effective than carpet cleaning professional boys .There are so many carpet cleaning companies who are working to clean the carpet in cheap prices.Their methods involve vacuum extraction, steam cleaning, absorbent method, simple rotational brush cleaning, dry foam extraction, dry extraction, etc. Today companies are adopting green carpet cleaning methods. Green carpet cleaning methods use environment friendly chemicals. These chemicals are made of organic and natural materials like vegetable fibers, natural minerals, enzymes, botanical extracts, vinegar, aloe, and many more. These companies don?t use synthetic products for cleaning.

    I second the enzyme cleaner. There's one called Nature's Miracle, you can buy it at the pet store. It's natural & biodegradable. The vinegar thing would probably work well too.

    You could try looking at the carpet with a blacklight in the dark. I know pet pee glows under a blacklight- not sure if human pee does too...?
