"The Problem With P.U. (Pet Urine)!"


Pets. Oh, how we love them. In fact, in the United States, the population of
domestic cats edged up 3.3 percent between 1995 and 1996, to nearly 68
million (that's approximately 200 million yawns each hour, or 425 million
catnaps each day!)
Cats are found in one in three U.S. households, and
although there are more
dog-owning households, the trend in the American
 home is toward more "mousers" and fewer "drooler's."                                   
                       

A little more than 37 million U.S. households (about 38 percent) had a
dog
in the family, totaling about 56 million
canines. Although the overall dog
population has remained relatively stable, the share of households with a
dog has decreased steadily since 1981, when more than 44 percent of
households had at least one dog. There are fewer cat households in the
nation, but many cat owners have more than one cat. The share of
households with both types of pets has remained stable over the last 15
years (16 percent in 1996, or 15 million households).

With all those pets living in American homes, it's inevitable that Fluffy and
Fido will occasionally have an "accident." What you do when the inevitable
does happen, can have a lasting impact on the appearance and odoriferous
emanations (smell) of your carpeting.

Speed is critical here. When your puppy piddles, or your tabby tinkles, you
need to get on it right away. The longer the urine sits on your carpeting, the
more difficult it will be to remove the stain and the odor.

As
urine dries the liquid evaporates, leaving urine crystals which consist of
bacteria, urochrome, uric acid, urea, proteins and hormones.
(Sounds lovely, doesn't it?) If the urine is allowed to sit on the carpet long
enough to sink deep into the fibers and penetrate the carpet backing, the
urine crystals become very difficult to remove.

Most
carpeting installed in homes today is nylon. When nylon carpeting is
manufactured, a hot, acid based dye solution is applied to the carpet fibers
to give them the desired color. Nylon carpet fibers are designed to accept
these acid dyes. A stain resistant carpet, such as
Dupont's Stain Master
brand
, is a nylon carpet that has a special soil repellant and dye blocker
applied to the fibers after they are dyed.

When a
pet urinates on the carpeting, it deposits a warm, acid based liquid
to the carpet, putting the carpet through a process similar to the original dye
process. Most new carpet, stain warranties exclude pet urine stains,
because urine is often strong enough to penetrate the stain resistant
treatment and permanently stain the carpeting. The sex, breed of the
animal, it's health and it's diet, all play factors in whether or not a urine spot
will become a permanent stain. The urine of a female dog is often more
acidic than a male dogs, and thus more inclined to leave a permanent stain.

Have you ever noticed how you can
clean a urine spot one day -
seemingly removing it - only to have it reappear a couple of days later?
Urine crystals are usually to blame. When you clean up a urine spot that has
dried, you can often remove all traces of the urine on the surface fibers.
But, the urine crystals, deep in the carpet fibers and backing, will slowly wick
back up to the surface, causing the spot to once again show up.  You can
clean the spot until your arm falls off, but still not permanently remove it.

Urine odor. Yuck. If your friends and family members have quit visiting you,
don't blame your spouse. It might be the aroma of Muffy's mistakes.

The average cat will deposit 2-3 ounces each time it tinkles, the average
dog, 3-4 ounces. (The average Great Dane? You don't want to know)
Multiplied by several times a day, you can have a major problem on your
hands in a very short time.

Once urine saturates the carpet backing, it may no longer be a matter of
simple spotting, but a major restoration, sometimes requiring the carpet to
be pulled up, both sides extracted and treated, the pad replaced, the
sub-floor sealed, the tack-strip replaced and the walls and baseboards
scrubbed and re-painted! I have seen many cases, where a pet owner
simply replaced the carpet and pad, only to discover the urine odor was still
there.

What can you do? If your pet is currently well behaved, hug them and thank
your lucky stars, but don't trust them. It's inevitable that eventually, for
reasons only they can understand, they will have an accident. When it does
happen, follow these spotting directions as soon as you can:

Blot up as much of the urine as possible. Do not scrub; you might fray the
carpet fibers.
When you think you have as much of it up as possible, blot the area again
using a towel soaked in warm water. Be careful not to get the area too
wet-you may force the urine deeper. Blot the area again with a dry towel.
Next, apply a low-residue carpet spot remover, let sit for 60 seconds and
again blot the spot.
Finally, fold a dry towel to several layers, place over the spot and apply at
least 10 pounds of weight. Let it sit overnight. When you remove the towel,
fluff the carpet up and allow to dry. If the spot returns after a few days,
repeat the last two steps.
After the carpet dries, stick your nose down to the carpet and give it a good
whiff. Any odor? If so, please be very careful what you use. The only
products that we recommend that a homeowner can purchase to remove pet
odors themselves, are natural, enzyme based products available at most pet
stores and veterinarian clinics. These only work in mild odor situations.  
Don't over-use them; you may do more harm than good.
