Sometimes trying to clean with some liquid, we add moisture and the carpet ends up worse. If this is your case, do not worry here we explain how to solve the issue without having to throw the rug or take away your friend's favorite place.

Your allies: baking soda and vacuum
These two ingredients are just what you need for this job. If you want to give it a smell, not just remove it, then you should look for an essential oil that you like. Lavender or vanilla, for example.

Vacuum the carpet to remove all dust, fiber debris, pet hair, etc. It has to be completely clean to proceed to the next step.

Spread the baking soda all over the carpet. To perfume it, add a few drops of essential oil to the baking soda before pouring it on the rug.

Leave the mixture to act for at least three hours, the longer you leave it, the more odors it will absorb. Then vacuum again and remove all the baking soda.

What if my pet had a "liquid" accident?
If they are puppies or very old, we will not be able to escape from urine on the carpet, but do not worry that the bicarbonate also works at this time.

Blot fresh urine stains with a clean cloth. Absorb as much of the carpet as you can before cleaning it. Use a clean cloth or several pieces of absorbent paper to dab on the rug to absorb the liquid.

Create a vinegar and baking soda solution. Combine 2 cups (500 ml) of white vinegar, 2 cups (500 ml) of warm water, and 4 tablespoons (60 ml) of baking soda and pour into a spray bottle. Spray a good amount of the mixture on the urine stains on the carpet and let it sit for 5 minutes.
