✅ Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Blot the Urine Stain
Use a clean cloth or paper towel to gently blot the area. Avoid rubbing, as it can push the stain deeper into the mattress fibers.
2. Make the Cleaning Solution
In a spray bottle, combine:
- 1 cup white vinegar
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons baking soda
Shake the bottle well to ensure the ingredients are fully mixed.
3. Spray the Solution Generously
Lightly mist the stained area, making sure not to soak the mattress. Let the solution sit for 5 to 10 minutes. This gives the vinegar time to disinfect and the baking soda time to break down stains and odors.
4. Blot Again
Blot the area with a fresh cloth to remove as much moisture as possible.
5. Sprinkle Dry Baking Soda
While the spot is still damp, sprinkle a generous layer of dry baking soda directly over it. This step helps absorb leftover moisture and neutralize any lingering smells.
6. Let It Sit Overnight
For best results, let the baking soda sit for at least 6–8 hours, or overnight.
7. Vacuum the Area
Once the baking soda is dry, vacuum it thoroughly to remove all powder residue.
