The Ultimate Guide to Getting Rid of Stubborn Pet Odors

The Ultimate Guide to Getting Rid of Stubborn Pet Odors

Dealing with lingering pet odors—especially urine—can be frustrating. But with the right approach and a reliable product like Odarid, you can effectively eliminate even the oldest, strongest smells. Here's how:

1. Start with a Clean Canvas

Begin by removing any solid waste or debris from the affected area. This ensures Odarid can work directly on the underlying odors and stains. 

2. Apply Generously—Let It Work

Either spray or pour a heavy application of Odarid onto the area. Don’t dilute unless specified (e.g., for general cleaning tasks). 

3. Wait for the Magic (Foam) to Happen

If you're treating old urine, Odarid will often foam on contact, helping you identify the exact spot—and signaling that the formula is working to destroy odor-causing components like uric acid and salt crystals. 

4. Let It Dry or Extract Residue

You have two options: let the product dry on its own, or use towels to blot and extract excess residue. 

5. Deals with Stubborn Old Odors

For tough or aged cat urine, more than one application may be required. After the first treatment and completion of foaming, reapply if any odor persists to ensure thorough elimination. 

6. Safe, Versatile, and Environmentally Friendly

Odarid works on almost any surface—carpet, concrete, tiles, hedging, furniture—even fake grass. It’s non-toxic, biodegradable, and safe to use around pets and children once completely dry. 

7. Stain Versus Odor—All Bases Covered

Not only does Odarid neutralize odors, but it also removes stains like blood, coffee, wine—even feces and vomit. 

8. Multi-Purpose Cleaning Power

Looking for general cleaning solutions? Odarid can function as an effective ready-to-use spray. For general-purpose tasks like floor or cage cleaning, you can dilute it with water—typically about 4 floz per bucket.
