Dedicated Pet Stain and Odor Eliminators
Household messes involving pets often require enzymatic cleaners to fully remove both the visible stain and the underlying odor, as they break down proteins and discourage repeat accidents in the same locations.
These pet stain and odor removers are formulated to address urine, feces and vomit on a variety of surfaces. Many formulas are safe for use on both carpets and hard flooring. You can find unscented varieties or common scents like citrus.
Rust and Mineral Deposit Removers

These formulas typically address:
- Rust and oxidation:Effective on metal-based stains found on porcelain sinks or tile.

- Concrete and driveways:Heavy-duty gels or liquids meant to lift oil and mineral stains from outdoor masonry.
These products may also be used in conjunction with upholstery cleaner or carpet cleaners depending on the specific surface and stain type. For environmental issues like fungus, you might also consider mold and mildew removers.
