Our dog had explosive and bloody diarrhea in five different locations in our front hallway. The flooring there is engineered hardwood. I've mopped twice with Murphy's but the smell still lingers.
How do I clean this? |
| Bloody? Aren't you more concerned about the poor dog? |
| OP here. The dog is already at the emergency vet. We think this is a reaction to anti-inflammatory meds that she just started for arthritis. No reason to be super worried but she's under observation for now. |

Any of the enzyme cleaners you get at the pet store will do the job. I prefer Simple Solution or Simple Green over Nature's Miracle which didn't quite get rid of the smell for me.
If it's all on the hardwood, spray the cleaner liberally all over, especially the crevices. Let it sit for 20-30 minutes and then mop it up. If there's any on carpet, pour the cleaner over the stain so the cleaner penetrates the padding. Then let it sit for 30 minutes and soak it up with a towel. Any stains that remain on the carpet after using the enzyme cleaner can be faded or eliminated with Spot Shot which is an aerosol rug cleaner. |

Simple Green has the best smell and does a great job.

Thanks, everyone. OP here. I have Nature's Miracle, but it's for urine and didn't seem to work.
All hardwood. We tossed the small throw rugs. (Those were already on my toss list anyway.) Will try Simple Green next. Thanks for the recos. |
