Exposing the Myth of “Quick and Painless Home Remedies” for Removing Cat and Dog Urine Odors

At Odor Medic, we have more than a decade of experience fixing cat urine and dog urine odor problems in numerous surfaces, materials and environments. From a commercial service standpoint, we have fixed over a thousand pet-related odor problems. In addition to physically performing the work ourselves, we have helped thousands more pet owners through the sale of our products and free step-by-step consulting.

From our experience, the myth of quick and painless home remedies is a very real problem costing pet owners significant expense when it comes time to undo the damage caused. In approximately 70 percent of the homes we have fixed, a pet urine odor problem was made significantly worse through the use of either an enzyme-based product from the pet store, or some other type of home remedy such as vinegar, peroxide, baking soda, Listerine, bleach, etc.

At its core, the problem is rooted in the application process of simply pouring on and saturating the contaminated area with one or more of these unproven remedies. (In most cases, they are nothing more than marketing gimmicks.) For instance, in the vast majority of problems where a pet has peed on the carpet, the source of the odor is not only in the carpet fibers, but also much deeper down in the backing, behind the baseboard, under the wall, and in the sub-floor.

So, in reality, simply pouring on chemical makes the problem worse by flushing the urine deeper, and wider, into the fabric (consequently making more work and incurring additional expense to fix the now larger problem area).

Every problem has its own unique set of circumstances and the key to successfully removing cat urine and dog urine odors is in the process used to remove them. The process is just as important as the product, and this is particularly true when treating carpet, rugs and upholstered furniture.

At Odor Medic, our proven processes have been perfected over a decade from using them everyday to fix pet odor problems in homes, businesses and vehicles. And in that time, what have we learned? We’ve learned that there is no quick and painless remedy to permanently eliminate pet urine odors.

It absolutely can be done—your furniture, carpet and wood floors can be saved, but it does take a bit of work. We’ll work with you every step of the way so that things are done in the right order and to ensure that the problem gets fixed in the least amount of time and at lowest possible cost.

If you use our products and take advantage of our free consulting, we guarantee permanent odor elimination or your money back!
