Tips
Dogs and cats smell ammonia and think another animal has peed there - which means the dog or cat will feel the need to cover the other animal’s scent with their own to reclaim their territory. Be sure you only use ammonia-free cleaning products if you have animals in the house.
Soak up as much urine as you can and then pour a bunch of salt on the spot. The salt will soak up the rest of the mess, and then you can vacuum it up. Best of all, salt is cheap and it won’t hurt you or your pet!
Be sure to get one that says it will destroy pet odors, a lot of them won’t. Follow the directions for treating the messy spot, and then you may have to do it again to get all of it up. Treat the area around the spot too just in case you missed any splatters.
Treat the urine spot first, get as much of it cleaned up as you can, then steam clean the carpet to get the rest of the odor out.
Pet stores carry a spray that will keep animals from coming around a particular area. If your pet is doing its business in corners all over the house, clean those areas thoroughly and then treat with spray to keep the animal out.
