The Ultimate Guide to Choosing the Best Urine Stain Remover for Your Home

If you’re dealing with a fresh puddle, it’s important to act fast. The longer a fabric, rug or carpet remains damp, the more potent the urine odor will be. Once the puddle has been cleaned up, it’s a good idea to sleuth out any old spots using a black light. This will help you see any spots that were missed when the lights were turned off, and mark them so they can be treated with a specialized odor eliminator.
