How To Clean Couch Cushions From Pee

Cleaning couch cushions from pee can be a daunting task, but it doesn't have to be. With the right supplies and a little elbow grease, you can get your cushions looking and smelling fresh again. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you clean couch cushions from pee:

1. Blot up the pee as soon as possible. The sooner you absorb the pee, the less likely it is to stain the cushion. Use a clean cloth or paper towels to blot up as much of the pee as you can. Do not rub, as this can spread the stain.

2. Make a cleaning solution. There are a few different cleaning solutions you can use to clean pee from couch cushions. One option is to mix equal parts white vinegar and water. Another option is to mix 1 tablespoon of dish soap with 2 cups of water. You can also use a commercial upholstery cleaner, but be sure to test it in an inconspicuous area first to make sure it doesn't damage the fabric.

3. Apply the cleaning solution to the stain. Using a clean cloth or sponge, apply the cleaning solution to the stain. Be sure to work from the outside of the stain towards the center. Do not oversaturate the fabric.

4. Blot up the cleaning solution. Once you've applied the cleaning solution, blot it up with a clean cloth or paper towels. Do not rub, as this can spread the stain.

5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until the stain is gone. You may need to repeat steps 3 and 4 several times to remove the stain completely. Be patient and don't give up! Even if the stain doesn't disappear completely, it should be significantly reduced.

6. Rinse the cushion. Once the stain is gone, rinse the cushion with clean water. Use a clean cloth or sponge to blot up the water. Do not oversaturate the fabric.

7. Dry the cushion. Allow the cushion to dry completely before using it again. You can air dry the cushion or put it in the dryer on a low heat setting.

Tips:

If the stain is still visible after you've cleaned it, you can try using a stain remover. Be sure to test the stain remover in an inconspicuous area first to make sure it doesn't damage the fabric.
If the stain is on a delicate fabric, you may want to have it professionally cleaned.
To prevent stains from setting, blot up spills immediately and clean them as soon as possible.
