Nature's Miracle, Nature's Miracle, Nature's Miracle. You need some Nature's Miracle.
You can get it at most pet stores (watch the prices and compare). It's great stuff and being enzymes will actually eat what causes the odours. I've used it a lot and have never found it to harm colours but you may want to test first. It looks like water so it will soak in where things like urine go and take care of it. It removes scent so dog or cat don't take it as a signal that they can go there again. Just keep using it until all the odour is gone. No rinsing required so it's really easy to use.
Maybe it's the "peroxide" in the name that's scaring me (perhaps a throwback to my "bottle blonde" days), but wouldn't something like hydrogen peroxide bleach the colour out of a sofa?
I read somewhere that hydrogen peroxide from the drugstore also works. Although I've never tried it. No matter what you use I agree try a small spot somewhere that isn't visible.
since I am getting a pup next week.....:eek: I have checked the pet store in advance for cleaning solutions for all the soon to be ACCIDENTS I am sure I will have to clean up over the next few months...:laugh: and they suggested Nature's Miracle STAIN and ODOR remover sold in the pet store....I have tried it in the laundry with great success but test a spot before using.....it also claims to remove blood, grass and perspiration stains!...good luck
