Tips for Dog Urine Cleaning
Dog urine cleaning is never a welcome task. But we know you love your dog (just like we love ours)! We understand that dogs often become important members of the family. But these family members make messes or have accidents from time to time. This article will help you clean up if that pooch of yours has an accident on your floor or furniture. Here’s how to handle several different situations – and not expose your dog to any harsh chemicals.
Cleaning dog urine with natural cleaners is the order of the day for you. Not only the stain but the odor are things you need to contend with. The good news is you don’t have to use chemical based solutions to clean up the mess. Environmentally friendly cleaners are better for you and your pet.
In fact a natural urine cleaner will do the job just as well as a commercial cleaner.
The best part is you will not expose your family and pet to nasty toxins. In many chemical based cleaners there are ingredients that have been linked to cancer, asthma and a variety of skin irritants.
Isn’t the dog pee enough? Why would you want toxic chemicals on your carpet as well?
The first step to clean urine naturally is to dab it with paper towel. This should remove most of the treat your dog left you. Be generous with the amount of towel you use. Depending on the size of your dog you may need a number of sheets (and dabs).
Vinegar is very effective at dog urine cleaning. After you have dabbed the pee away, cover the affected area generously with undiluted white vinegar. Let it set for about 10 minutes and again blot it dry with a paper towel.
Vinegar is a wonder cleaner in the home and even dog urine can’t hide from its awesome power!
To tackle the odor problem, another natural cleaning product you likely have in your home will do the trick. Baking Soda is very good at absorbing nasty odors. Generously sprinkle baking soda over the area of “the spill”. Let it sit for a couple of hours and then vacuum it up.
You will be amazed at what a great job of dog urine cleaning these natural products will do. The stain and odor will be gone and you and your pooch can be friends again!
If you don’t have the time to make natural cleaning products, there are lots on the market that work great. They are better for you, your family and your pets. Start green cleaning and get rid of those ugly chemicals.
