For many families, their pets are a vital part of their family unit. Just like other family members, we normally don't get rid of them when they have "accidents." And while pets can and do provide a variety of benefits within households, their "accidents" can also create challenges. Pet urine on carpet, rugs, upholstery or leather can do much more than cause unpleasant odor.
Pet urine can cause permanent damage to your floors and fabrics. It can also create an unhealthy indoor environment. When urine is first deposited onto a floor or fabric, it is in an almost "neutral" state, which means it is easier to remove when it is fresh. Once it dries, it turns "alkaline" and becomes more difficult to remove. If left for days or weeks, depending on the fabric or floor type, it will permanently change the dye structure, therefore causing permanent staining. Even if the soluble deposits are removed, the damage to the dye structure may already be done. This means that no one can guarantee complete removal of all urine spots. Please consult with your technician if you have questionable urine spots on your carpet.
