Pets & Odors: what to know

Urine is the hardest pet problem because it rarely stays on the surface. It soaks into the backing and pad, and the salts it leaves behind pull moisture from the air, which is why odor often returns on humid Maryland days. These guides explain how to find hidden spots and treat them properly.
