Tips on How to Remove Urine From Mattresses

Dealing with bedwetters? If your child has a bed wetting problem, you probably want to know how to remove urine from the mattress. If so, read on. There are many solutions which you can try to make sure you lift any stains from the mattress and make the mattress smell fresh.

Before you begin working on the mattress, you should start by transferring the soiled bedding into the washing machine. This will ensure that your child has a clean, fresh bed to sleep in that night. Do not expect cleaning a mattress to be a quick procedure as it can take several hours.

Naturally, the sooner the urine on the mattress is treated, the easier it is to remove. Before you try to use any solutions to lift the urine from the mattress, dabbing the mattress with paper towels can be a great idea to remove as much of it as possible to begin with.

There will still be a stain and mixing a third of vinegar with two thirds of detergent can make sure any stains remaining from an accident are removed once and for all. Dab this mixture over top of the stain, let it stand for 30 minutes, and the solution will remove even more of the urine. Then use a lightly watered sponge to wipe off the cleaning solution so it does not remain on the mattress. Sprinkle some cornstarch over the affected area, and leave this for several hours to finish the stain removal process.

Now you know an easy and effective technique for removing urine. However, there are many other methods available that you can use to help you get rid of urine stains on mattresses.
