of all you have to locate the stain with the help of black stain. The benefit
of black light is that it helps the urine stain to fluoresce. You can purchase
it from any pet store in your locality or you can even purchase it from online
store.
2. For
the black light to do it job, make sure you darken your room where there is
urine. Obviously, you have a big carpet and you cannot figure out as to which
carpet areas have stain on it. Hold your black light few inches away from the
stain area. So finally you will be able to figure out the Cat Urine Stains.

a smart thing to do will be to outline the stained area which you have to
treat. You can use a painter's tape to outline the area and the stain so you
can perform your job well.

your room again. So if the stain is fresh and there is a puddle full of urine,
soak as much urine as you see with paper towels. Make sure you do blotting
rather than pressing really hard with the paper towels. Blotting technique is
the best tried and tested technique.
5. Use
a pet urine remover on the stain. You can purchase any of the product but it
will be better if your purchase one that neutralizes urine odor as well. Using
a normal detergent for this purpose will not do the job as urine stains do not
come out with normal detergent very easily.
