Removing Home Pet Odors--4 Ways To Get Rid Of Pet Odor In Your New Home
Author : Debbie Davis
If your new home looks wonderful, but the pet smell is less than thrilling, you'll be relieved to know that you can eliminate the pet odor. The following 4 tips will help your home smell just as new as it looks.
Have Your Home Professionally Cleaned--Hiring a company to clean before you move in will allow them to clean everywhere rather than having to ignore areas that are behind or under furniture. This should include the entire house-steaming carpets, wiping down walls and surfaces, cleaning windows, sanitizing the inside of cabinets and drawers, and vacuuming. This gets rid of many of the odors left from the previous owners including their pets.
Remove Carpets-If cleaning doesn't work, removing the carpet and the padding is the next and more expensive step. It's important to wait for several days to see if this clears the smell. If you are still able to smell odor, it may be coming from the sub flooring. Contact a contractor or home builder to determine if a new sub floor will solve the problem.
Paint-Sometimes a pet's aim can be bad and urine and other unpleasant and odoriferous things can wind up on the wall. If a favorite spot on the wall was chosen, it can be pretty tricky to pinpoint the exact spot. Painting is an inexpensive way to give the room and new look and smell. Use paint with low volatile organic chemicals so that you don't exchange pet smells for chemical ones.
Filter Your Air With A Pet Odor Air Purifier--Opening your door to unpleasant odor can make coming home less than appealing. Filtering the air allows your home to smell clean while you continue to search for problem spots. Using an air purifier that is specifically designed to remove pet urine odors is an immediate solution. Continuously filtering the air buys you time to find and neutralize the offending spots.
An air cleaner that has multiple filters will remove not only odor but fine particulates that are common in the cleanest of homes. So by selecting a filter that has a HEPA or high efficiency particle arresting filter you will also be removing airborne dust, dust mites, mold and mildew spores, as well as bacteria and viruses as small as.3 microns. Once you've solved the pet problem, the filtration needs in your new home may change. Dust, dust mites, allergies, or chemical sensitives may become an issue. An air purifier whose filters can be interchanged will simply mean buying a new filter rather than a new purifier.
Finding, removing, and neutralizing pet odor in a new home or any home is far from an exact science, but by using a combination of these 4 suggestions you will be able to enjoy your new home without the pet odor.
