So when urine comes out it has a low power of hydrogen, or PH, once dries it has a very high PH. Physics class, or wait was that biology, tough us, in order to neutralize a high PH you have to use a substance which contains a low PH to aid in getting it as close to neutral on the PH scale as possible. A good example of a neutral liquid is, tap water.
What we recommend is using distilled over the counter cleaning acetic acid aka: “vinegar” – make sure and get the clear stuff, not the apple cider variation. Simply get the affected area damp with a around five to six quirts from a trigger sprayer. Basically you want to put down the same amount that your little furry friend put down. Then let it sit for about five minutes, then take a dry towel and blot up as much as you can just like when you remove red stains from carpet. Then repeat if you still smell urine. If not go a head and put down the same amount you used before, but this time us simple water, or carbonated water. Let sit again on the carpet for 5 minutes. Then blot up with dry towel, let it dry, and you done!
