Things You'll Need

• Old rags
• Baking soda
• Black light (optional)
• Empty spray bottle
• Water
• Vacuum cleaner

Instructions

1. Clean up any puddles of urine from the floor if the urine is fresh. Soak up the puppy pee with old rags.

2. Sprinkle a generous coating of baking soda onto the affected area of the wood floor. If the urine spot is old and you cannot see it, hold a black light over the floor to locate the urine.

3. Fill an empty spray bottle with water. Lightly mist the baking soda with water so the spot is damp.

5. Wash your wood floors as usual. This will remove any residue left behind from the baking soda.
