1. Why Pet Messes Smell
When your dog has an accident, it’s not just wetness that causes odour. Dog urine contains:
- Water (the obvious part)
- Urea, salts, and proteins
- Compounds that bacteria can feed on, creating odours
If left too long, even small amounts of residue can cause lingering smells in carpets, couches, or lawns.
2. Two Ways to Tackle Dog Urine Odours
There are two main types of products:
A. Absorbent/Adsorbent Powders
Examples: Eco Pawz CleanUp, Supa Sorb, clay powders
How they work:
- Sprinkle on fresh mess immediately
- Powder soaks up the liquid, turning it into a sweepable granule
- Sweep or vacuum it away
Why it works:
- Odour comes from the liquid itself. Remove the liquid → odour is greatly reduced
- Stops the mess from soaking into carpets, upholstery, or grass
- Works indoors and outdoors, including lawns and turf
- Immediate effect — no waiting
Limitations:
- Doesn’t chemically destroy odour molecules. If urine has already soaked deep into a carpet or couch, some odour may remain
B. Enzyme / Odour-Breaking Sprays
Examples: Urine Off, Nature’s Miracle, CSI Odour Remover
How they work:
- Enzymes in the spray digest urine molecules that cause smell
- Perfect for carpets, furniture, and fabrics where liquid has soaked in
- Usually needs spraying → waiting → blot/dry to work
Limitations:
- Not great for immediate spill cleanup
- Takes time for enzymes to work
- Not suitable for lawns or turf
3. Why Immediate Action Is Key
The longer urine sits:
- The deeper it soaks into carpet, furniture, or soil
- Odour-causing compounds build up
- Bacteria grow, producing even more smell
Sprinkle, sweep, done! — removing the liquid quickly with Eco Pawz CleanUp prevents odour before it starts, keeping your home and yard fresh
4. Where Each Product Shines
| Situation | Best Product | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Fresh indoor accident | Eco Pawz CleanUp | Absorbs liquid fast, reduces smell immediately |
| Fresh outdoor urine spot | Eco Pawz CleanUp | Protects lawn, stops odour, easy to sweep |
| Deep carpet/furniture odour | Enzyme spray | Breaks down molecules that cause lingering smells |
| Tough or old stains | Eco Pawz + enzyme | Absorb liquid first, then treat residue with enzymes |
5. How Eco Pawz CleanUp Works for You
- Sprinkle on any wet mess: urine, vomit, water spills
- Powder soaks up liquid and traps smell
- Sweep or vacuum away granules
- Fresh, dry surface in minutes
- Can also protect grass and prevent lawn burn from dog urine
Key point: By removing the source of odour immediately, you often don’t need enzymes — but they are available for stubborn or deeply soaked areas
6. Quick Tips for Dog Owners
- Act fast! The sooner you sprinkle absorbent powder, the less smell
- Sweep, don’t just leave it. Removing the soaked powder keeps surfaces clean
- For fabrics or carpets, you can follow up with an enzyme spray if odour lingers
- For lawns, Eco Pawz protects grass and reduces ammonia smell
- Keep some powder on hand in high-traffic areas or near potty spots
7. Bottom Line
- Eco Pawz CleanUp = instant liquid and odour source removal, indoors or outdoors
- Enzyme sprays = targeted odour breakdown for stubborn or deep stains
- Best results = absorb immediately, enzyme if needed
Think of it like this:
Adsorbent / Absorbent powder stops the smell before it starts.
Enzyme spray cleans up the smell that got away.
