How to Remove Pet Stains from Carpets

 "Dealing with pet stains can be challenging, and if not addressed promptly, they can result in lasting odors and discoloration. At KL Cleaning & Home Services, we have assisted countless households in rejuvenating their carpets following pet mishaps."


Here’s a comprehensive guide, drawing from our extensive cleaning experience.

Step-by-Step Cleaning Process

  1. Blot Immediately:
    Use paper towels or a clean cloth to soak up as much moisture as possible. Avoid rubbing - it only spreads the stain further.
  2. Apply Vinegar Solution:
    Mix equal parts white vinegar and water in a spray bottle. Spray generously on the stained area. Vinegar helps neutralize odors and break down the stain naturally.
  3. Scrub Gently:
    Using a soft brush or old toothbrush, scrub in gentle circular motions. Always work from the outside of the stain inward to prevent spreading.
  4. Rinse & Blot Again:
    Rinse the area with warm water, then blot dry with a clean towel to remove excess moisture.
  5. Sprinkle Baking Soda:
    Sprinkle a generous amount of baking soda over the damp area and let it sit for at least 12 hours (overnight is best). This helps absorb any lingering odors. Vacuum thoroughly the next day.

Pro Tip from the Experts

Use an enzyme cleaner specifically designed for pet stains. It breaks down uric acid crystals found in urine, which helps eliminate both the stain and the odor at the molecular level - something standard cleaners can’t achieve.
