Many times baking soda can be an efficient, all-around solution for deodorizing carpet. To use, pour baking soda generously and evenly over your carpet. Leave it on for several minutes to an hour to let the baking soda absorb the odors. Vacuum until all baking soda particles are removed. Baking soda is a powerful agent not just for removing odor but also for treating carpet stains. Mixed with vinegar to form a paste, the abrasive quality of baking soda is often strong enough to treat the spot, while also being gentle on the carpet material. What’s more, baking soda is environmentally-friendly and also safe for homes with kids and pets.

You may require some stronger techniques for situations where you suspect the odor may be caused by deep-seated dirt and debris trapped in the carpet. Using a steam-cleaner in conjunction with some carpet cleaning solution is a surefire way to extract the dirt within the carpet fibers. Water-based steam cleaners can be rented out, or you can purchase an affordable model for convenient, on-the-spot deep cleaning.

A carpet shampoo machine is a great option for removing pet odor and pet urine odor. First, use a wet vacuum to extract all the urine from the carpet. Make sure you remove as much of the urine as possible before applying any cleaning agents. Shampoo the area, using the shampoo machine, to remove all traces of odor. You also have the option to look for shampoo variants that include a pet odor cleaning solution. Next, sprinkle some pet-odor neutralizing powder over the areas. Borax or baking soda can also be used as an alternative. Let it sit overnight and then vacuum up.

Perfume may smell good on you but when spilled on the carpet if may emit a strong odor or even cause a stain. To neutralize these negative effects, apply a white vinegar solution made of equal parts water and vinegar onto the spot using a spray bottle. Blot to absorb the excess liquid. Rinse off the area by dabbing with a sponge moistened with clean water. Stack paper towels or a dry, clean towel, weighed down with a heavy object, to soak up the remaining moisture. Allow to air dry.

Mildew in the carpet can cause a musty odor that will permeate throughout the house. You can try to eliminate the smell by using the baking soda method. But keep in mind that mildew is an indicator of mold and bacteria, which can only be removed by thorough disinfecting. When you suspect a serious mildew problem, it’s best to seek help from a professional carpet cleaner.
