Our pets are like family to us. They are the best part of the day when you come home tired from work. Nothing can match the feeling when your pet gets all happy to see you come home and sits to cuddle with you. But with all the cuddling, there are the pet droppings as well, which can give rise to really bad odour making your home smell very bad. Here are some of the tips to make your home feel fresh throughout and keep the bond with your pets unconditionally loving.

Carpeted areas and upholstery

For the stains that have just happened and are fresh, try soaking up the urine as much as possible with a cotton cloth. Place paper towels on the area to soak up the urine, cover it with a newspaper and stand on it for a while to soak up everything. Repeat this procedure till the area is barely damp. If possible, place one of these urine soaked paper towels near your pets designated bathroom area. Since they are attracted to the smell, it could teach them that this is the place for them do their business. Don’t forget to rinse the accident area with cool water and blot it dry.

Paint and wood damage

If the wooden surface of your furniture, walls, baseboard or floor is discoloured, it means that the varnish or paint has reacted with the acids in the urine. It’s best to get a new layer of varnish or paint. While doing so, don’t forget to make sure that the new paint material is safe for pets to avoid any further such incidents.

Finding Older Mess

Sometimes it so happens that the odour is already present but you do not know where the source is. In such times, turn to your natural instincts, follow your nose to find the source. If you have a black light, use it to identify the soiled area and mark it for cleaning.

Avoid Future Accidents

There’s a high chance that your pets will return to the “accident zone” if they can still smell their personal scent. Make sure you properly clean the area to remove any smell which could lead the animal back to the same spot. Try to make this area not so attractive to them and their actual designated potty area extra attractive. Productively cultivate a new habit in your pet’s mind to do its business in this designated area. Normally re-training will take about a week or two.

Are you a pet lover? 4 cleaning tips you need to know

Whether you're a dog or a cat lover, you know for sure with all the endless love and happiness they bring, comes endless cleaning. Pet urine, poop and fur cleaning can get difficult at times, leaving you overwhelmed. Worry no more, as we provide some tips that will make your cleaning easier and your home healthier.

1) Regular brushing

When you have a furry friend at home, you're bound to find fur all over the place. In order to reduce the cleaning work, you should brush your pet frequently. By doing this you will get rid of the loose fur which should go straight to your bin instead of falling on your rugs and carpets.

2) Clean stains ASAP

There are times when your pet messes your rug, carpet, or bed. It is important to act quickly and get rid of the waste before the stains settle and become permanent. Always blot the stain with a blotting material instead of rubbing/scrubbing it. Hydrogen Peroxide, Vinegar, and Baking soda are good solutions to clean up well.

3) Avoid outside dirt from entering indoors

There is nothing more fun for your pet than running on an open ground, chasing after insects, or rolling in the mud. While all this may seem fun to your pet, it means you’ll have some cleaning to do. You are going to have to deal with paw prints and mud, dirt and allergens after all the playing. In order to avoid all the mess, it's best to wipe your pet thoroughly before it steps into the house.

4) Stock up your cleaning materials

 At any time of the day, your pet can dirty your place making it unpleasant. It is always good to be equipped and ready with cleaning items to tackle such cleaning situations on time.

5) Groom your pet

Be proactive when it comes to taking your pet out for a grooming session. This will help in keeping your pet healthy and clean and your house too!
