Stains and Odors got you thinking about replacing your carpet?

KIDS ‘N’ PETS Stain & Odor Remover 

Solutions to your stain & odor situations.

Replacing a carpet can be a costly repair or upgrade for any homeowner. But how much does the average carpet replacement cost? Even though prices can vary based on location, there are standard steps taken during the replacement process that can affect the final price.

o    The average cost of the removal of old carpet can range between .35 cents to $2 per square foot depending on the cost of living and location. In a 1,000-square-foot home, carpet removal can cost $350 to $2,000 not including taxes and other fees.

o    The installation of new carpeting can be performed by a carpet installer at the site of purchase, independent carpet installer or yourself. The price can vary between $3 to $7 per square foot depending on the quality and type of carpet, size and shape of the room. Do-it-yourself installation can save approximately $1 per square foot.

o    Installing a carpet pad is not required, but will add to the life and durability of the carpet. Typical installation of carpet pad costs from $1 to $4 per square foot, but can potentially save money by extending the life of the carpet.

o    Carpet replacement does not include everything and may incur some additional costs. Some of these hidden fees can include moving of furniture, disposal of old carpeting and unusual shapes and corners in a room that add to the replacement time.

“Have I have to say when I first bought this product I really didn't think it was going to work.  So I sprayed some on a puppy stain and I did what the directions told me to do.  And the stain was GONE.  This product is awesome. 

So today I had to use it again but I tried it on marker that my daughter did on light cream color carpet.  I used it because I had nothing else.  And to my surprise that came out too.  I just have to say this product has saved my carpets over and over again. Thank you to who ever made this.  The best product ever. “

Are the warm days of summer causing your home to smell a bit 'woofy'?
In my house we thought we had removed all of the dog urine odor and stain from our dog's favorite indoor 'spot' only to notice the horrible smell when the weather finally warmed up! The warm weather was causing the untreated urine odor to multiply, making the room smell like an outhouse!
What a great time to pre-treat and shampoo the carpet with KIDS 'N' PETS 2x Pet Stain & Odor Carpet and Upholstery Concentrate.
The concentrate is safe to use in all leading carpet cleaning machines. The recommended amount is 2.5oz per gallon (4oz per gallon for heavily soiled carpet). The chamber in most carpet cleaning machines hold one gallon of water. Deep clean carpet following the machine user's guide. Let it dry and you are done! There is no rinsing necessary!
To help speed up the drying process we were able to leave the windows open. Now that the room is completely dry, I am happy to report the dog urine odor is gone and our dog's favorite indoor spot is no longer visited!

I receive calls daily from customers praising KIDS 'N' PETS Stain & Odor Remover and how it has impacted their life. Rarely do I receive two calls within an hour of each other from different areas of the country regarding Red Dirt!
My first caller was a woman from Georgia who had purchased KIDS 'N' PETS Stain and Odor Remover to clean up after her Pomeranian messes. Her daughter was reading the label and mentioned to her mom that KIDS 'N' PETS could be used as a laundry pre-wash. As a mom, she had spent years combatting the red dirt on her children's white socks, she decided to give KIDS 'N' PETS a try. She was so excited at the result that she just had to call and share. The socks came out as white as they were when first purchased. She desperately needed to tell someone, but was afraid to call her friends as they might run down to their local retailer, buy up the entire inventory and leave her with no KIDS 'N' PETS!
Within the hour, I received a call from a gentleman in North Carolina. Unbeknownst to him, his wife insists on having beige carpet in a territory covered with red dirt. He claims that if it wasn't for KIDS 'N' PETS he would have had to replace the carpet on his stairs, which is an expense he does not want to incur. KID 'N' PETS was able to remove all of the red dirt stains from his staircase, leaving his carpet looking new again.
Not only do I have the pleasure of hearing great stories like these, I also receive a bit of a geography lesson about our great country! If you live in an area blessed with red dirt, be assured that KIDS 'N' PETS Stain and Odor Remover is the solution to your red dirt issues
Please continue to call with your great stories. We also want to hear from you if you have an unfavorable experience with KIDS 'N' PETS. Our goal is to make your experience a positive one, regardless of the situation. We are your solution to your stain and odor situations.
And please don't be afraid to tell your friends! They will love you for it!

How KIDS 'N' PETS Stain & Odor Remover Saved My Family $1800

Here is a great KIDS 'N' PETS story from a customer we found on Stain-Removal-101.com.

"Our family is lucky to have a sweet little Chihuahua and a great big lovable black Lab. Our pets are normal, house trained dogs who know better than to use the floor for their bathroom.

Unfortunately even the best trained animal can’t control where and when they vomit.

We had run out of our usual brand of dog food and my husband brought another type of food home.

Both dogs ate the food, however the food didn’t agree with our big dog and she apparently threw up in the middle of the night. Twice. On our light beige carpet, in military housing and about 3 weeks before we had to move to a new post!

By the time I found the two vomit stains, both almost eight inches wide; the red/orange coloring in the dog food vomit had turned the carpet a nasty color.

I used my carpet shampooer, tried many other kinds of cleaner but nothing really helped to totally get rid of the stain.

I went to the store looking for something new to try and I spied KIDS 'N' PETS. It was endorsed by Animal Planet and I figured that if anyone knew about pet stains, it would be them.

We were just days away from "clearing" housing, which is when they send in a representative from the housing office to walk through your home to see if there are any damages. Each sign of damage has a certain dollar amount and of course the carpet is one of the most costly.

We knew from friends that if anything was wrong with the carpet, housing would charge $1,800 to replace it all.

I took the KIDS 'N' PETS home and tried it out right away. The first thing I noticed was the smell of this cleaner.

I have used other products that have the enzymes to properly clean urine and other stains, but in my opinion, they all smell horrible! I was pleasantly surprised with the pleasant lemony scent of KIDS 'N' PETS.

I followed the directions which was to clean up the mess with towels, pour KIDS 'N' PETS on the remaining stain and let sit for at least five minutes; then blot with a clean rag.

I used my carpet shampooer instead of using the rags, but after five minutes or so the red/orange vomit stain was a very light pink stain with a nice citrus scent.

I repeated this two or three times and eventually both stains were so light they were almost unnoticeable.

We finished getting our house ready for the inspection and hoped they wouldn’t say anything about the stains. After the rep did her walk through in our home we were stunned to find out she didn’t find anything to charge us with.

The stains apparently were gone enough to fool a professional mess-finder!! Since then I make sure to always keep KIDS 'N' PETS on hand since we do have 2 dogs and 3 kids.

In fact, my toddler is potty training now so accidents happen often in our house. I know that the enzymes will permanently erase the urine smell and I won’t have to worry that my pets will be attracted to that spot.

For the amount you get in a bottle as well as the price and effectiveness, I recommend this cleaner to all my friends. It really does what it says it does!!"
