How to Remove Cat and Dog Urine Stains and Smells from Carpets... pet urine odor remover.


Cat urine is difficult to remove. Cat urine is comprised of three major components: Urea, Urochrome and Uric acid. Of all 3 components it is the uric acid which accounts for the smell. Household cleaners are ineffective in cleaning up the urine because uric acid consists of crystals and salts, which when they dampen again, will bring back the smell. Also do not use ammonia products as a cleaner for the urine.
