HELP! HELP! HELP!
In a condo I own the tenant's 2 cats and 1 dog urinated to a 70% penetration rate on ceramic tile on the first level, the gypsum concrete on the second level and the plywood subflooring on the stairs and third floor. This evidently happened over a three year period. Do I need to replace all the flooring?

"Nature's Miracle" works very well on fabrics and even some solid
absorbent surface. However, if it's deep into the carpet and pad, I
don't think there's much hope other than replacement. We have one dumb
cat that likes to , ah, anoint things. I can usually smell is just
walking into the house. Nature's Miracle usually works. On carpets,
I've soaked the area with NM, then extract, and let dry. A follow up
cleaning might be necessary with regular carpet cleaner. Strangle the cat!

to get rid of any urine odors, cats dogs humans etc.....

pull everything from the space, remove and discard carpets
etc,........ scrub area totally

sand floors lightly coat with OUTDOOR POLYURETHANE.

Prime walls with oil based BIN or KILZ primer sealer.

even coat concrete floors after cleaning with outdoor poly.

This is what the professional fire restoration crews do.

its impossible to wash away urine odors, the only effective treatment
is coating surfaces and enscapalting them forever......

incidently i have had to do this.....

use outdoor poly because its water proof, regular poly can and does
soften in wet weather, like high hmidity days and the odors reoccur

It may be working for you but creates a mess for others.

Rather than strangle, have the cat checked by a vet since urinating
inappropriately can often be caused by a urinary infection. In the
case of the original poster however, that is not likely the case, the
cat just got used to uriniating in certain places and was never
stopped.

We have two cats that enjoy our company. They follow us around like puppies,
at least when they're not sleeping. We don't have dogs because cats are
easier to take care of. We can leave them for a weekend without any problems.
If we're gone for a week the neighbors just have to look in on them a couple
of times to fill their bowls.

At one time I had about 16 barn cats, many of them were tame enough to catch. Finally had to get rid of all of them as the garden spot was becoming intolerably stinky with their urine and **** deposits. I gave most of them away and the coyotes cleaned up the rest. I would take worm medicine every year in case I got infected with their parasites.

The mechanical damage I can handle, but how do I get rid of the terrific


stink? The only way I can stand to be inside the house is with a big fan


blowing air in the door. I have treated the rugs for fleas, and think I


have them down. Will I have to discard the furniture and rugs?


HELP! HELP! HELP!


In a condo I own the tenant's 2 cats and 1 dog urinated to a 70%
penetration rate on ceramic tile on the first level, the gypsum
concrete on the second level and the plywood subflooring on the
stairs and third floor. This evidently happened over a three year
period. Do I need to replace all the flooring?


"Nature's Miracle" works very well on fabrics and even some solid


absorbent surface. However, if it's deep into the carpet and pad, I


don't think there's much hope other than replacement. We have one dumb


cat that likes to , ah, anoint things. I can usually smell is just


walking into the house. Nature's Miracle usually works. On carpets,


I've soaked the area with NM, then extract, and let dry. A follow up


cleaning might be necessary with regular carpet cleaner. Strangle the cat!


Rather than strangle, have the cat checked by a vet since urinating


inappropriately can often be caused by a urinary infection. In the


case of the original poster however, that is not likely the case, the


cat just got used to uriniating in certain places and was never


stopped.


People who let cats live in their home DESERVE the smell. Why people like to
dwell with animals is beyond my ken.


because obviously the dogs ALLOW US TO LIVE HERE....

I can never understand how anyone could live without pets, espically
dogs


I can live without barking.

Teach the dog to not bark. Bad behavior is always the owner's fault.

true, cat's smell isn't good. the owner of that cat should provide some cleaning measures.Perhaps taking a bath his pet well do.

Bigger breeds tend to bark less and are, in general, easier to train. Little
dogs often have a Napoleon complex but that can be fixed, too.

Sure, any good dog psychiatrist should be able to straighten the little
yippers out with no problems whatsoever. I wonder how much that would cost.

Good grief you're impotent. A couple of lessons with a dog trainer will teach
the owner everything he needs to know.

Treating the carpet with backing soda gets rid of the stink. A good bright sunny day out for the carpet might also help, If you are trying for a home made solution.
