Step-by-Step Instructions
Has your cat missed the litter box? Here's how you can clean the mess from your carpet using common household items.
1. Remove the Bulk
- First, put on gloves for hygiene.
- Use a paint scraper or something similar to lift the poop onto a dustpan.
- Wipe off any excess with a damp paper towel, trying not to spread it further.
2. Treat the Stain
- Spray the stain with a pre-wash laundry stain remover. Look for one with 'Oxi-Action'.
- Prepare a bucket of cold, soapy water using liquid dishwashing liquid.
- Rub the stain with the soapy water and a cloth. Rinse the cloth often.
- If needed, use a scrubbing brush for tough stains.
- Repeat the spraying and scrubbing until the stain disappears.
3. Dry the Area
- Use paper towels to absorb as much moisture as possible.
- Place the towel on the area, tread on it until saturated, then replace with a fresh towel.
- Repeat until little or no moisture remains.
