which Simple Green product is best for getting out stains from cat vomit on rug?

None. Take a WET rag, hydrogen peroxide, and an iron. YouTube it. 1. Pour the peroxide into stain. 2. Put wet rag over 3. Put iron on high WITH STEAM on top of rag (just set it) for 10-30 seconds 4. Blot off- works on tons of stuff! Better for you than simple green nasty stuff too, and works better too!

I heard that Oxyclean will ruin the hoses in any machine, so I wouldn't use it. I've used the plain Little Green with much success and there's also an oxygen-enhanced booster that's safe for carpet cleaners--forget the name though. The other user's suggestions about white vinegar/water will do the trick too for urine.

I have successfully used Fels-Naphta to remove stains from dry-clean only items ( wool coats etc.) Then a vigorous brushing and an airing, either on clothes line or in the dryer, thus saving taking it to dry-cleaning. Other spot removers are much more environmentally damaging. Castile soap would be an all-natural options, but did not work well in spot removal.

My issue was cat urine on concrete, which wasn't stained since I always tried to clean up the mess asap. So I'm not sure about it's usefulness on stains.

I use green cleaner products, (Go Green), leave for some minutes and then clean with a cotton rag, put a lot of newspaper under to catch the fallen grease, rinse with water and burn a charcoal to burn any leftover.

I don't know, but, Johnson and Johnson make a really good stain remover for carpet. It is sold at home depot and comes in an aerosol can. I bought a spray bottle for my insta gone; the one they supply is junk! Hope this helps.

The other answers you have received today have hit the nail on the head. The Chem-Dry Carpet Stain Extinguisher is the best product we have found to clean up those "messes" left by our dog. Follow R.C.'s and E.C.G.'s advice and you will love the product too with the purchase of your first bottle. Good Luck, JH

I use a solution of 50% carpet spot remover and 50% water in a 1-liter bottle (easier to grip with one hand). Drill 4 very small diameter (1/16") holes in the top. Squeeze solution on the spot, scrub with a brush and vacuum up the residue. For minor spots such as fresh dog poop. pick up the poop with a paper towel, squeeze solution on residual stain and vacuum without scrubbing with a brush. Scrubbing a fresh stain only spreads it to adjacent carpet fibers. A dish soap and water solution will also work instead of carpet a spot remover and water solution.

I use CleanAway, which is a detergent based pet cleaner and deoderizer. I also add some fabric softner as the soap left in the rug tends to bring the spot back quicker. The softener cuts the detergent. Can also use vinegar as the softener. Hope this helps

I bought 2 beautiful New Zealand Wool runners for my interior halls. Almost on cue my cat vomited on one and the dog had an accident on the other. I tried cleaning them with a water based cleaner and the rug fibers were ruined in those areas (distorted and packed down), and the stains kept wicking up. I used the capture on those and future stains and it worked like a charm with no damage to the fibers. Some stains required a few treatments but they came out beautifully in the end

Use whatever you use to spot clean carpet. My cats don't seem to have an oder though.

You can use some baking soda or dry green tea leaves as natural deterants for the urine smell. This will require you to move the pellets around more with the scooper. But the idea behind Breeze litter pellets is the urine go to the pad and you change out the pad once a week for one cat and sometimes with 2 or more cats twice a week. If you have more than 2 cats get a least two of the Tidy Cat Breeze systems. And be persistance in waste removal and changing out the pads. And, everyone remember every month or month and a half always dump everything and clean the box and tray with soap and water.

Hi KL, this should work but you may want to use a PreTreat on the stains first. Enzyme action cleaners work well with oil so try the BISSELL 35L6 Enzyme Action Pet Stain and Stink Remover, 22-Ounce on the stain first then use a deep cleaner like the SpotLifter 2x to remove the stain.

Hi Tiffany. No, this product is designed for organic stains and odors only. If you have a carpet cleaning machine (assuming that is where the odor is), you can use this product to do the job on the mold odor: Carpet Miracle - Carpet Cleaner and Deodorizer Solution (32 FL OZ)

I had a disabled, incontinent cat. She had her own living area, covered with whelping mats, which I washed in "NoRoma Industrial Odor Eliminating Laundry Wash" (available on Amazon). It is expensive, but works wonderfully. I set the washer for the longest cycle possible (cold-water wash). You need to use the full amount suggested, even in a front-loading washer.

No, I do nothing and that is what the directions say. All you do is add the pellets to the WARM water, wait about 20 minutes (to let the pellets disolve) and spray. If the area is really bad you might need to spray a couple of times. This works better than anything I have ever used. In my basement after I used the fizzion (where my cats are) I later (after fizzion dried) shampooed my carpet, but is was not necessary for any staining and odor. This also has NOT left my carpet with bleached stains or any damage.

I have gotten old stains out of my carpet. I did use a small brush and the spray 'n wash then used the spotlifter to finish the job.
