To remove pet stains from hardwood floors, start by gently pressing a clean, dry cloth or paper towel onto the stain to absorb as much liquid as possible. Avoid rubbing, and don’t oversaturate the wood, since excess moisture can seep into seams and damage the finish. For organic pet messes like urine, vomit, feces, or saliva, a bio-enzyme cleaner can help break down the residue that causes stains and lingering odors instead of simply covering them up.

For a deeper clean, apply a bio-enzyme stain and odor eliminator according to the product directions, using only as much as needed for the affected area.  RUFF STUFF Bio-Enzyme Stain & Odor Eliminator by Lillian Ruff is designed to target organic, protein-based, and fat-based pet messes such as urine, feces, vomit, saliva, food spills, and odors. Because hardwood finishes can vary, always test on a hidden area first, avoid soaking the floor, and wipe away excess product as directed.
