The Stubbornness of Pet Stains

Pets are an essential part of the family. However, their messes are some of the most stubborn household messes to clean up. Pet stain removal is a tricky process that may not always be as effective as you want. Pet stains even affect different floorings in different ways, making them more difficult to deal with. Normal cleaning on its own isn’t always enough to remove pet stains. A professional pet stain and odor removal company can help you remove stains with powerful industry-standard tools and techniques. 

Carpet and Upholstery

The most stubborn pet stains are those found on carpets and upholstered furniture. Your pet loves the softer texture these surfaces provide, and their stains love the fibers they can attach to and stay hidden in. The problem with a pet stain on carpet and upholstery is that it can look clean without actually being clean. This is why you may clean up a pet’s mess but still smell the odor afterward.

Carpets and upholstery have layers of each fiber, and normal cleaning methods only skim the top layers. However, the germs and odors from the mess are still present below the surface, causing damage to the fibers and creating an unpleasant atmosphere. Professional pet stain removal companies can treat these stains with fiber-safe chemicals and industry-powered equipment that will fully remove both stain and odor. It’s also possible that some parts of your carpet may need to be replaced, depending on how long the stain was there and if it’s reached the padding underneath the fibers.

Pet Odor

No matter where the pet stain is, the odor is its most stubborn aspect. Typically, cleaning the deep stain out of your flooring or furniture will cause the odor to naturally dissolve over time. However, there are additional cleansers and odor removers that you can use to help the process along. It’s important to note, though, that the odor removals won’t be as effective unless the stain has been fully and properly cleaned up.
