Urine when fresh is slightly acidic, nearly sterile and contains some organic salts and other components. As time passes, the urine spot will turn alkaline. The naturally occurring bacteria that work on urine residues off-gas ammonia as a by-product of their digestion. This is what gives urine that characteristic smell.
Pet Stains Owners of even the best-trained pets will occasionally encounter pet accidents. Often, the urine is not discovered until long after the accident. The types of damage from pet stains can be diverse and are dependent upon the makeup of the urine. Urine content will change over the pet's life because of the pet's diet, medications, age, health, sex and reproductive cycles. Because of these variations, some urine stains may not be removable. Urine can affect the dyes used in carpets, although not all occurrences will result in a permanent stain. Success is dependent upon the content of the urine, the dyes in the carpet and the time elapsed after the deposit. Some urine spots may be immediately noticeable, while others may take weeks or months for a reaction. When urine spots develop slowly and are noticed after much time has elapsed, the dyes and carpet fibers may be permanently damaged. In beige carpet, blue dyes are attacked by pet urine, leaving behind the red and yellow dyes with a resulting stain appearing red, yellow, or orange. Pet urine, left unattended, can damage carpet in several ways. Moisture can weaken the layers of the carpet, allowing separation or delaminate of the backing material. Seam areas can be particularly damaged and can separate. A number of products are available to combat odor but may simply mask the odor and in times of high humidity the odor may reappear. Some veterinary offices have good odor control products but nothing is better than calling a carpet cleaning professional.
