You love your pet, but you don’t love the accidents that stain your carpet and leave unpleasant odors. There are a bunch of cleaning products on the market, but did you know that you can make your own pet urine stain remover at home?

DIY Pet Urine Stain Remover

Here’s a solution that uses one of our favorite go-to household cleaners: vinegar.

What you’ll need:

• White cleaning cloths or paper towels
• 2 cups of vinegar
• 2 cups of water
• 4 tablespoons of baking soda
• Spray bottle

1. Clean up the urine as soon as possible! Your best change for preventing lingering smells is to clean up the accident as soon as possible. Use your white cleaning cloth or paper towels and blot up as much as you can. You can even stand on it to help get it out of the carpet padding (which is wear smells tend to get stuck). Be sure not to rub it into the fibers.
2. Mix up your vinegar, water, and baking soda solution and put it in your spray bottle.
3. Spray the spot and let it sit for five to 15 minutes.
4. Blot it gently with a soft cloth.

If you have an extra tough spot, apply the baking soda directly onto the carpet instead of mixing it into your spray mixture.
