http://www.pinkscarpetcleaning.com Pink's Carpet Cleaning of Riverside and Moreno Valley California tells how to remove pet urine and pet odor from carpet. When pets have accidents, we tend to not be very forgiving. We bring these animals into our homes and expect them to act human when it's simply not going to happen because they are animals and don't learn the way humans do, so when they pee on our carpet, we tend to get angry. Well you don't need to be angry because it's a simple fix if you can follow instructions. How it works: Urine is alkaline which means it contains salts. These salts basically never dry out. The only way to remove them is to use something on the opposite side of the ph scale and that's where distilled white vinegar comes into play. Vinegar is an acid and will dissolve all the minute salt particles that are left behind in your carpet from the pet urine. By giving it dwell time, you are allowing the acid to neutralize the alkaline salts in the urine, rendering them inactive. You can't leave the vinegar in your carpet though because it is an acid and will eventually eat away at the primary and secondary backings of your carpet, so you have to neutralize it as well. This is where the baking soda comes into play. Baking soda or sodium bicarbonate is an alkaline as well and contains salts. When you apply the baking soda to the urine spot, it will help neutralize the vinegar. Once the spot is completely dry and you've left the baking soda on it, simply vacuum up the baking soda thoroughly and that's it. Hope this helps anyone that has a problem with pet urine in carpet.
