Pet Urine stains are no joke. They are unattractive to look at and unpleasant to smell. Even after you remove the surface stain from urine, if you are able to do so, there is more damage lying underneath. A pet urine stain is detrimental to carpet and requires a professional cleaning from your trusted carpet cleaner in Ann Arbor, MI. Scroll to find out why.

Why are pet stains so bad?

When a pet deposits urine into the carpet it seeps below the surface and soaks carpet fibers. As it moves downward the urine contaminates the flooring material beneath the carpet, and there it stays. Sometimes it causes a need for major restoration if it goes untreated! What’s worse, pets will often go in places they have gone before. That means Spot can smell the spot he urinated on last time and will likely treat it as a fire hydrant once again!

Why does pet urine smell so bad in carpet?

Pet urine smells terrible in your carpet! But why?? Because urine keeps sinking deeper and deeper into the floor, it will contaminate every layer of your carpet. That means carpet backing, tack strip, and even the cement or wood below. Urine crystals become concentrated and continually pungent. It can be difficult to remove an odor that strong!

What can remove urine from carpet and upholstery? What about removing pet urine?

For a long time there wasn’t a product available to remove pet urine stains effectively from carpet. Most carpet cleaners in Ann Arbor MI mask the smell with perfumes, which will work for a short time, but not forever. Instead of covering the odors temporarily with something else, we remove the pet urine odors directly from the source. Green Mitten Chem-Dry removes urine and odors with P.U.R.T.

What is PURT®?

P.U.R.T. is our revolutionary method used to remove pet urine and odors from carpet and upholstery. P.U.R.T. (Pet Urine Removal Treatment) is unlike any other pet urine and odor removal. Using blacklight technology we locate old stains so we can treat them.

When P.U.R.T. contacts the source of the odor it immediately begins to destroy the urine odor and explode urine crystals. This process destroys urine odors and pet stains once and for all. This superior product has shown excellent results in Ann Arbor, MI homes just like yours! 

Why do I need a professional carpet cleaning to remove pet urine stains?

Pets are notorious for going in the same places they have gone before. Urine spots are sure to become worse over time because unfortunately Spot won't stop urinating inside so long as he can smell the urine stain. Using P.U.R.T. we can remove 99.9% of the pet urine odors from carpets.
