Step 1:
If the area is still wet you should first absorb the dog urine using a
wet towel (hot wet towel). Leaving it there to dry out will only help
create bacterial growth which causes the odor.
One of the best ways to remove the dog urine is to using a wet dry
vac. If you don’t own one an different method is to place several layers
of paper towel over the wet urine area or towels and step on it so as
to soak up as much of the dog urine as you possibly can. You will have
to repeat this a few times until no more dog urine can be soaked up.
Sometimes dog urine may have already dried because you did not notice
them in the carpet before. You can find dried urine spots on your
carpet with the aid of a black light like our technicians do when
cleaning your home. The dog urine stains will fluoresce under the ultra
violet light in a darkened room. Hand held black lights are quite
inexpensive and normally cost between $15 – $30.
If you can’t afford the cost of a black light. Find the urine spots
by using your nose. Just get down on your carpet and sniff and find the
urine odors that way.
Step 2:
Mix in a spray bottle fifty percent hydrogen peroxide and fifty
percent water. Use a spray bottle to apply the solution to the carpet.
Work the solution into the carpet with a soft brush or clean white
towel. Be sure not to spray this solution to closely to the carpet. You
don’t want to create any bleach out problems. We recommend diluting the
hydrogen with water at a 50/50 rate, after testing and this does not
work, use more hydrogen peroxide and less water. Just don’t spray to
closely or to much. 3 sprays should work.
Blot the area using a clean white cloth or paper towel to absorb the
solution. If you own a wet/dry vacuum extractor use it to remove excess
moisture. This should remove the stain, any discoloration (yellowness)
left from the stain can be removed by using more hydrogen peroxide or

Deep Cleaning your carpets Professionally at least every 6 months is a
must. Be sure to tell your carpet cleaning professional about any urine
problems. Carpet Cleaning professionals should take a black light
through your home to find any hidden urine spots in the padding of
carpet.
