Does steam cleaning a couch get rid of smells?

• <div><p>Steam cleaning a couch should get rid of most smells, but there are some more potent smells that require a bit more work than steam cleaning. For instance, steam cleaning won’t likely <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/get-smell-out-couch.htm">get the smell of pee out of a couch</a>. To remove urine odor from a couch, you’ll most likely need to use an enzymatic cleaner, which targets the smell and stain. </p></div>

Q: Is peroxide or vinegar better for urine smell?

• <div><p>Hydrogen peroxide is usually better for getting rid of urine smells on hardwood than vinegar. Unlike vinegar, hydrogen peroxide is odorless. This can be advantageous if you have a dog that likes to mark areas with a strong scent. Also, hydrogen is a strong oxidizer that can break down bacterial odors, and it is less likely to remove the finish on hardwood flooring than vinegar. Never mix hydrogen peroxide and vinegar. This creates corrosive and toxic peracetic acid.</p></div>

Q: Will urine smell come out of a mattress?

• <div><p>Over time, a urine-soaked mattress will lose the pee odor on its own as long as it dries out completely. However, it&rsquo;s best to help the process along either by calling in a professional mattress cleaner or by using household cleaning products like white distilled vinegar and baking soda to remove the moisture and the odor. You may want to consider <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-often-replace-mattress.htm">replacing your mattress over cleaning it</a> if you have multiple stains or odors that are persistent.</p></div>

Q: What if the dirt doesn’t come off the furniture with the vinegar, water, and dish soap mixture?

• <div><p>Sometimes you will need a stronger cleaning solution to thoroughly clean furniture before painting. It&rsquo;s best to start with a mild solution to avoid damaging the surface, especially if it is an antique piece. If you need to use a stronger mixture, try a commercial cleaner or mineral spirits. Before applying any solution, do a test patch on an inconspicuous area so you don&rsquo;t risk damaging the finish.</p></div>

Q: How do you prepare for mattress cleaning?

• <div><p>To prepare for mattress cleaning, clear the area around the mattress or move it to a different area so you or your hired specialist has ample space to clean thoroughly. This may involve moving furniture and any fragile d&eacute;cor items. Remove all bedding from the mattress. If possible, schedule your cleaning on a sunny day with low humidity to help speed up the drying process.</p></div>
