Pets and your Carpets

Our family pets bring us years of fun, affection, and fond memories. It’s hard to imagine life without them. But Fido and fluffy, no matter how well trained, leave us other little reminders that they are around.

The Common Problem

Urine contamination is one of the most common problems we find in carpet and upholstery. Unfortunately, these spots are also of the most complex problems we face in cleaning. You see there are three problems associated with urine. First, there is the most obvious problem with odour. Urine contamination leaves a very unpleasant odour which is made even worse when mixed with heat, humidity or moisture.

The second problem is the urine, when allowed to remain in fabrics, is unsanitary. It is a natural breeding ground for bacteria, so the fabric itself must be sanitised and germs and bacteria counteracted.

The third problem associated with urine contamination in carpets as that the components of the urine itself can cause the carpet to become dis-coloured either immediately or overtime. The alkaline salts in the urine attack the colour dyes of the fabric itself and cause the discoloration. Urine itself contains dyes with may damage the carpet fibre. The complexity of the problem associated with urine contamination can depend upon many circumstances. The amount of urine that has been left in the area, the time allowed before it is treated the type and physical condition of the animal as well as many other factors.

Re-activated Odour

Sometimes the odour associated with urine contamination is not immediately obvious. Over time, the odour molecules and alkaline salts in the urine become dormant, and the odour is not evident. But the odour becomes immediately obvious when the urine contamination arrears are combined with moisture. On hot, humid summer days these odours may be more obvious. Occasionally, the cleaning process itself can reactivate the odour. This is why it is important for us to know of possible urine contamination so we can be prepared to combat it.

The cleaning process itself will usually not eliminate the odours associated with urine contamination.
