|! |! We've tried to Vax the carpet but is there anything which will neutralise

|! |!
|! |! The offending child has gone but the smell hasn't!

|! |! Can anyone please offer some ideas?

|! |!Pet Accident Sanitary Cleaner (from Betterware). Or the equivalent (from
|! |!most pet shops). Spray on foam, wipe off with damp cloth. Seems to work
|! |!well with lots of things; might require two or three treatments, but
|! |!cheap and worth a try.

|! *biological* washing powder works against cat urine.

|!Is that so? Have you tried it? I have a cotton rug in mind that you
|!might have saved from the tip :-)

Yes! IME it works, supposed to be the enzymes.
