How do I clean pet stains?

Pet stains are among the most common and dreaded stains people will have to deal with. Left untreated, urine stains will start to smell. That means these stains not only look bad but can pose potential health risks too.
The most important thing to know about pet stains is to never use a steam cleaner. The high heat involved will only amplify the smell and help set the stain. Instead, treat them like any other stain, but use a cleaner designed to deal with pet stains. These are specially formulated to counteract the foul-smelling and potentially dangerous chemicals found in urine.
Act quickly, avoid heat, and remember to lightly dab rather than scrub, and pet stains will be no problem.
