Tips for Using Nana’s DIY Carpet Cleaner

  • Test First: Before using the cleaner on a large area, always test a small, inconspicuous spot on your carpet to make sure it doesn’t cause any discoloration or damage.
  • Act Quickly: The faster you can get to the stain, the better! Try to clean pet accidents as soon as they happen, as fresh stains are much easier to remove than old, set-in ones.
  • Use a Vacuum: After the baking soda has had a chance to sit, always finish up by vacuuming the area. This removes any residue and ensures that your carpet is fresh and free from leftover product.
  • Repeat if Necessary: If the smell persists, repeat the process. Sometimes, stubborn urine stains may need a couple of treatments before they are completely gone.

Bonus: How to Prevent Future Stains

While Nana’s DIY carpet cleaner will certainly take care of existing stains, there are a few tips to help prevent future accidents:

  • Train Your Pet: Make sure your pet is house-trained and that you address any accidents promptly.
  • Use a Carpet Protector: Consider using a carpet protector spray (available in pet stores) to make cleaning up spills and stains easier in the future.
  • Regular Cleaning: Regularly clean your carpets to keep them fresh and to prevent dirt from accumulating, which can contribute to smells.
  • Keep Pet Areas Designated: If your pets tend to have accidents in certain areas, consider using washable rugs or carpets in those spots for easier cleanup.
