Oriental Rug Cleaner & Why Rugs Smell in Wet Weather - Sedona

Hi there! It’s Ruthie with Arizona Oriental & Specialty Rug Care coming from Prescott, AZ.

 

If you find your rugs smelling when the weather is wet, it can be that they are wet from shows, boots of pet footprints. However, there are other reasons this can occur. The reasons can be your pets, yet they use your rug as the ideal place to urinate.

You can find, as do we, there are fewer rugs to clean because of urine stains at Arizona Oriental & Specialty Rug Care during the spring and start of summer.

Once there is heavy rain or monsoons, there appear to be issued, and customer rugs smell. Along with the monsoons, relatives also roll into town seeking an escape from the heat, if only for the weekend. Then we as the local rug cleaning professionals are inundated with calls.

When our four-legged family members first collect it on your area rugs, urine has an acidic pH that appears to smell a little. You are expected to sponge up much of the wetness as practicable and then go about your busy day if you are like most rug owners.

 

What Pet Urine Does to Area Rugs

These odorous urine salt crystals eventually dry and may not be very noticeable for a while. The chemistry changes as bacteria feed on the urine deposit ammonia into the air, turning the urine spot alkaline and making odors much more apparent.

Suddenly the rains move in, and the humidity skyrockets! The urine salt crystals absorb this high humidity and emit gas, making the odors way more noticeable.

Urine smells are half the issue, as it can do more than smell.

  • Urine is very damaging to the rug fibers because
  • Dyes become unstable and bleed
  • Color loss 
  • The weakening of rug fibers (precursor to dry rot
  • Dry rot that will split, tear, and leave holes in your rug
  • Rugs fill with Germs and Bacteria

One thing with smelly urine odors is that it is a salutary reminder your rug needs cleaning. If there was urine with no smell, you could find it rotting or going moldy.
