Recs for getting dog puke out of carpet?
I came downstairs to find that our dog had gotten sick in a number of spots all over our light colored carpet. I used Awesome because I was told that works great but so far, it's not working. She's on antibiotics right now and I think it might've upset her stomach. I need ideas of how to get these yellow stains out of our carpet!
What do you use? I need tried and true ideas...thanks!
Re: Recs for getting dog puke out of carpet?
I've used white vinegar and citra-solv. Saturate stain with water, and let sit. blot up. Pour vinegar mixed with Citra-Solv (diluted) in warm water over stain. Let sit. Blot up with towels. (Paper towels are not absorbent enough).
I got citra-solv at my local organic market, but you can get it at Whole Foods and some grocery stores/Target.
I would second Nature's Miracle. If it doesn't work on the very first try, just keep reapplying, blotting (never RUB the stain!), and reapplying again.
If you're willing to shell out some bucks, I would highly recommend a Little Green carpet cleaner. I usually fill it up with plain water (without the cleaning solvent that Bissell sells - it's good for some things, but not dog puke) and use it in conjunction with Nature's Miracle.
Oxy clean works awesome (got red wine out of my white carpet) and then the target generic brand carpet cleaner in the sea-foam green and white spray foam works wonders for "pet messes" I have 2 dogs and foster 1 so I am always coming across some lil surprise !!
but either of them work great! hope you can get it out!!
