How Pet Urine Affects Your Carpet


Who else love's their pets like we do? We have 2 wonderful pups that were potty trained very early. The truth is, no matter how potty trained our furry friends are they will still have accidents. When your pet urinates on the surface of your carpet it will soak into the pad underneath and sometimes go even deeper into your sub-flooring. Another problem is dogs and cats will urinate in the same spots and can cause severe urine damage. Cleaning them up yourself will probably make it look better on the surface but truth is there will still be a musky urine odor in the carpets.

Dangers And Health Issues of Animal Urine In Your Carpet

  • Respiratory Issues.

    Your cats’ or dogs’ urine is highly concentrated and smells sharply of ammonia. Ammonia fumes are irritating to the nose, throat, and lungs. When your pet urinates in reduced ventilation, such as your home, the air presence can trigger asthma, pneumonia, and even suffocation.

  • Lightheadedness, Fainting.

    Ammonia inhalation can cause Olfactory Adaptation (“noseblindness”), fatigue, Cough, phlegm, and shortness of breath. Because of the irritation in the airways of the lungs makes it difficult for someone to breathe normally. It is also an indication of respiratory infection.

  • Eye And Skin Irritation.

    Low concentration of ammonia can cause rapid eye and skin irritation. On the other hand, prolonged exposure can lead to permanent eye damage, blindness, and also skin burns. Children are also more susceptible to this risk because of their lower body weight than adults.

  • Overall:

    It may not seem so serious since your pet is too adorable to discharge a hazardous odor. But since it is very dangerous to your health, you want to keep your carpet clean not only to look good but also to feel good. Give us a call and schedule an appointment so that you can avoid these health risks brought by pet urine in your carpet.
