Default Urinary incontinence

If you've ever had night time urinary incontinence, how did you get that horrid smell of urine out of your mattress?

DH says he can't smell it, but I certainly can. Every time I go into the bedroom I smell urine .......imaginary or not, to me it's still there. It got wet through a couple of months ago.

Any suggestions gratefully received.

Maybe a "Pet Spray" that kills the bacteria? Just a thought

Have you already tried baking soda?

The oxyclean works for carpets pretty well...

What about Febreeze??? That's probably your best option....

Good luck

Thank you ladies. I'll try both.

I guess I just go to the pet shop and ask about pet deodorisers....

Fabreeze we have in Australia as well.

Once I get rid of the smell, then I have to tackle the stain.

Gosh this disease is fun.................

Thank you again.

I wouldn't worry about the stain! It'll be covered up with the sheets!

You can buy a waterproof bed cover to go under your sheets...they work really well... then you just wash the sheets and the pad and mattress is ok...

Good luck!
