We love our pets but training animals where to go to the bathroom can be frustrating. Unfortunately if you ever had to train your dog to relieve himself outside or perhaps show the kitty the litter box you know mistakes do happen. Follow the steps below to remove urine stains out of all types of fabrics.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Distilled white vinegar
  • Paper towels
  1. Step 1

    Use the paper towels to absorb as much of the urine as possible.

  2. Step 2

    Then make a solution of distilled white vinegar and hot water

  3. Step 3

    Soak for 35-40 minutes in the solution you made.

  4. Step 4

    Launder as you normally would.

Tips & Warnings
  • For delicate fabrics be sure to use a solution of distilled white vinegar and cold water then follow steps 3 and 4.
