Another mishap from me- dog poop smell

Having a great week. Any suggestions getting poop smell out of the carpet? For the past 3 days I have been scrubbing with Oxy clean for pets and adding Natures Miracle. it still reeks.

Re: Another mishap from me- dog poop smell

  • Try white vinegar. When my dogs pee on my carpet, I first soak it up best I can. Then I use either Spot Shot or Oxy clean to scrub the stain. Then I just pour straight vinegar over the spot. But I also have a little green machine (mini steam cleaner), and I suck it all up once I'm finished.

  • the carpet is tan- the vinegar won't stain ( make lighter)?
  • Baking soda?  I don't know if that or vinegar would stain or not though.

  • Saturate with Nature's Miracle. Leave it sit for AT LEAST 48 hours before treating it again, and do not mix it with any other chemicals. It's enzyme based, and agitating it or mixing it with other chemicals can denature the enzymes. 
  • Vinegar won't lighten the carpet but I don't personally have good success with it in getting out carpet odors, but it's worth a shot.

    I agree with the PP to clean the area the best you can with water (I'd use cool/tepid water), blot out the moisture, use Spot Shot (love that stuff) to get the stain out. 

    As far as the odor...I have used to use Nature's Miracle with only varying degrees of success until I found ForceOut.  LOVE that stuff.  It's only available online, but it's worth it.  One of the best things Dh ever bought!  LOL!
