HOW TO REMOVE URINE STAINS


Urine stains are among those little life annoyances that only become worse when ignored. Whether cleaning up after a potty-training toddler has wet the bed, housebreaking a pet or caring for an aging relative, accidents involving urine require quick and effective cleanup in order to help prevent a worsening stain.


From couches to carpet, mattresses and more, you can rejuvenate your urine-stained items with proper technique and cleaning tools. Mattress fabric has a tendency to hold on to urine stains, and removing them can be difficult - but not impossible. A waterproof mattress protector is a great investment, but it's not the end of the world if you don't own one.


Getting your urine-stained material back in shape requires more cleaning power than most typical household cleaning products are equipped to offer, however. Popular home-remedy items such as dish soap, white vinegar or baking soda can leave behind stains and potentially worsen the problem.


From stain removal to regular cleaning, Simple Green All-Purpose Cleaner is an ideal cleaner and deodorizer for removing urine accident spots and stains.
