Default Cat **** on wood floor

A tenant had a cat and the apt stinks, the wood floor was redone
before he moved in but I am worried it went inbetween the planks. What
do I wash it with. I have heard of Natures Miracle an Enzime base
deoderizer, would an Enzime base laundry detergent help. They were
only there 6 months but the smell has to go.


My last two houses had animal **** in certain spots . The first the carpet
was saturated in one spot without going into detail into might of been the
owners ****. I had to rip the carpet out it soaked into the subfloor I
sealed it with kilz then new carpet. In our recent house I had the same
problem but on a slab removing the carpet I painted the floor with kilz
again Then did a glue down hard wood floor. I have tried all those Enzyme
cleaners and odor eaters with no success . I think a factor might be how
much damage has been done if your floors are stained or have black edges
between boards the **** most likely soaked down in. If you have cleaned the
surface ( I'm sure you have) and still are getting an odor you might have a
problem. You might try contacting a cleaning service that specializes in
fire and water damage.
