Carpet cleaning/deodorizing tips needed plz

[NelliesMom]

We are going to use our friends carpet cleaner and just have the Bissell cleaning solution in the blue bottle (basic solution). Well...our cat took a liking to the carpet in a room that we seldom go in and we need to not only clean it, but try to get the smell out. Is there anything you can suggest that I put in the cleaning solution to get rid of the odor (not just temporarily mask it, but get rid of it)?

Thanks ever so much!

Someone made a post recently about putting a bowl of Activated Charcoal in a room. They say it really takes out the odors! I think they said that you can get a big bag of it at the pet store where the aquarium things are. Good Luck Hun!

You need an enzyme product to remove the pet odors. Go to yopur local pet place and get a product to spray on the spots. I think one of them is called Nature's Miracle...or something like that. When you saturate the spots, it goes down into the padding and gets the odors there too.

Use the carpet cleaning solution, some of the Nature's Miracle (pet pee spray) or whatever brand you can find, and I also put in some Odor Ban, I buy it by the gallon at Sams. You can also use the odor ban on your garage floor too or pet kennel.

all i can say is good luck. in my rental house, my last tenant had a dog that he did let out. i had my bil (who owns a carpet cleaning business) clean and deoderize the carpets twice. i ended up getting new carpet through out the house.
