EINPresswire.com/ -- How should homeowners handle carpet stains, including those caused by pets? An
article featured in HelloNation offers detailed advice from Terry Cripe of Terry’s Cleaning & Restoration in Goshen, Indiana, who emphasizes that quick, proper action is the key to preventing permanent damage. Whether dealing with a spilled drink or a pet accident, Cripe explains that the techniques and products used in those first moments often determine how well a stain can be removed.
Cripe recommends blotting fresh spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth and avoiding any rubbing that could worsen the stain. For common household messes, a mixture of white vinegar and water can be an effective solution. However, when it comes to pet accidents, he stresses the need for enzymatic cleaners specifically formulated to break down the proteins and bacteria in urine. These cleaners not only remove the stain but also eliminate odors, reducing the likelihood of repeat incidents.
He also cautions against using ammonia-based products, which can confuse pets due to their similar scent to urine and lead to further accidents. Before applying any cleaner, Cripe advises testing it on a hidden area of the carpet to avoid discoloration or fiber damage. For deep or stubborn stains, professional carpet cleaning services may be required to fully restore the carpet’s appearance and hygiene. The full article,
How to Handle Carpet Stains, Including Pet Accidents, offers homeowners a practical guide to maintaining clean, odor-free carpets with ammonia-free carpet care methods.
