Pet urine can be a real pain to clean, especially when it seeps into your mattress. But don't despair, there are a few things you can do to remove the stain and smell.

How to Clean Pet Urine from Mattress

Blot Up the Urine

The first step is to blot up as much of the urine as possible. Use a clean, absorbent cloth or paper towels. Press down firmly to soak up the liquid.

Rinse the Area

Once you've blotted up the urine, rinse the area with cold water. Use a spray bottle or a cup of water. Rinse until the water runs clear.

Apply a Cleaning Solution

Next, you'll need to apply a cleaning solution to the stain. There are a few different solutions you can use. Here are a few options:

*
  • A mixture of equal parts white vinegar and water.
    • *
  • A solution of 1 cup of hydrogen peroxide and 1/2 cup of baking soda.
    • *
  • A commercial pet urine cleaner.

    • Apply the cleaning solution to the stain and let it sit for at least 30 minutes. Then, blot up the solution with a clean cloth.

    Rinse the Area Again

    Once you've blotted up the cleaning solution, rinse the area again with cold water. Rinse until the water runs clear.

    Dry the Area

    Finally, you'll need to dry the area thoroughly. Use a clean cloth or a fan. Make sure the area is completely dry before you put your sheets back on.
