had a cat that vomited up her food on
the carpeting here and you can see how
it's discolored in this area I cleaned
up the food and I also used a damp rag
to get up all the liquid and I'm just
going to use a very natural way to try
to go after the stain and remove any
odor so first I'm going to put some
baking soda all over the area and I'm
going to leave this generally for a
little while I'm going to move a little
quicker here just for the video but if
you leave this on for you know a half an
hour so it will absorb any of the
moisture and it helps break down the
odor and you can even work it in into
the carpet but then what I'm going to do
is I mixed 50% of this empty spray
bottle with vinegar and then 50% of warm
water and then all you have to do is
spray this on and the chemical reaction
is going to help break down the odor and
the baking soda on a lot of carpets will
help bring back the color so I'm just
going to spray this out I'm going to let
the baking soda and the vinegar interact
and then I'm going to leave this for a
little while then we'll go after it and
clean it up so now that this mixture is
sat here for about 1/2 an arm and take a
damp rag with a bucket of warm water and
I'm just going to remove some of this
mixture and rinse it out and I'm going
to work over the whole stain
and then what we'll do is we'll let this
mixture dry for a few hours and then
we'll come back with a vacuum and vacuum
it up and we'll see how it looks so I've
gone over the area a few times and I
fully work the carpet and rinse this and
already it's starting to look a lot
better and so again we're just going to
let this dry and then we'll come back
and vacuum it and see how it looks so
it's been about an hour and I let it dry
and vacuumed it and turned out beautiful
the outline of the stain is gone the
odor is gone and for a pet accent
whether it's urine or vomit vinegar and
baking soda does a great job vinegar is
just a natural deodorant and
disinfectant and it's inexpensive so for
a pet accident this is what I would
start with
