Dog Pooped on Carpet
My dog pooped on my basement carpet, discovered it after 2 days. Scraped up
the mess and cleaned 3x with Green Machine after pre-treating with tough stain remover. Stain is gone yet there is still an odor. Are there any cleaners available that I can use to remove the odor? The carpet is a commercial grade, virtually no pile to it. Thanks in Advance, -a12vman |

Dog Pooped on Carpet
Search this forum using the word "odor" and you will find several very good
threads including one I started when a mouse climbed into my new Corvette convertible trunk last winter, got trapped, and then died. With the help of others on this forum I eventually found a superb product which only does odor removal, and has no fragrance of its' own. It worked perfectly when everything else failed. It is at: http://www.rugdoctorpro.com/pro/solutions.pdf and has an enzymatic formula which breaks down and kills the bacteria which cause the stink. It is sold in my area where rental rug shampoo machines are offered, since this same company makes a whole line of rug cleaning and deodorizing products. Good luck!

You want the product called "Pro Odor Remover"

The first thing I'd try is to dump about 1/2 cup of baking soda on the spot and rub it in, then vacuum it out. Costs about fifty cents and takes five minutes, so even if it doesn't help, what are you out? -- Regards, Doug Miller (alphageek at milmac dot com) It's time to throw all their damned tea in the harbor again. |

Thanks in Advance, -a12vman Use an enzyme cleaner, available at most large pet centers/departments. Or, you can try covering the area with baking soda, tap it into the carpet, then vacuum it up after 3-4 days. |

Dog Pooped on Carpet
Sure, for example Simple Solution. I've had no lingering odors and
very simple removal of dog poop for years, with each new Doberman puppy. My usual mail order company for pet stuff http://www.petsuppliesdelivered.com/...ubmit= SEARCH but there must be hundreds of others. -- On the internet, nobody knows you're a jerk. |

I've used Urine Gone and Nature's Miracle. Both are good, but the best is the one called "UNIQUE Pet Odor & Stain Eliminator". |
