I don't have a good answer. I have used it and has eliminated any problem. Smells included... You might want to contact the manufacturer. Sorry! Works great for me! :)

The stain doesn't really smell that all that bad. It has an odor, but not really a toxic one that will make you loopy. Depending on top coat, you may want to ventilate.

I had the exact same problem - but then I discovered that when I applied my steamer directly on the Nature's Miracle after it had set for a few minutes, it practically disappears. I already had the steamer, but I would definitely recommend getting one - even a small hand-held one - if cleaning urine stains is going to be an ongoing issue.

Because I also read complaints re: odor. I opened up the Krate and left it to air out prior to letting my dog in it. I haven't had any unusual odors, since!

I'd need a little more information before I could a answer your question... Did you use the product as directed? How much did you use on the stain at one time? I've never had that happen with this product. You could have used too much or not let it dry between uses, or something in the carpet cleaner may have reacted with the enzymes in the Nature's Miracle. I personally love the product and always recommend it.

We haven't extensively used it yet (just starting the potty training process), but so far it doesn't seem to stain. I forgot to clean it out one morning, went to work, and when I came home I cleaned it and it hadn't turned yellow.

I had a couple of small stains. I don't think they were really noticeable once it was on though. I'm not a laundry-expert though, perhaps if you paid attention and wash appropriately right after you notice a stain...

Very! I rinsed with water and wiped down with some Nature's Miracle spray. No stains and no smell!

I've never noticed much of a smell. Vivid is absolutely the best stain remover I have ever used. When a friend fell in wet grass with white jeans on 2 hours before we were leaving for an event, I used Vivid to spot treat and then wash. They were dry just in time and no sign of the stain left!

It was smelling really bad from urine after one days use. I put a thin layer of kitty litter under the grass and now there is no smell for weeks, but my dogs don't use it all the time, they go outside on the grass during the day.

I wouldn't recommend that. I think it's best when it's used full strength for treating specific pee spots. If I have a large spot or several stained spots I use a carpet cleaning machine first, making sure I get all of the soap rinsed out well. Then I pour on the Natures Miracle full strength to neutralize the odor in the formerly stained spots.

I wish I could help you concerning the odor. I never opened the one I bought up. It was a replacement for someone in the family. I accidentally Machine WASHED hers and it Ruined it! Don't wash it, take it to the cleaners and ask them is my suggestion.

Leave it alone....this product uses enzymes that work afterward, leaving a smell for a day or two if its too badly saturated with urine, but the smell WILL go away after it finishes eating at the "mess" (literally). I have used Nature's Miracle on an apartment I was cleaning that had badly soaked carpets, and the day after, you could barely walk into the house, because the odor of the urine and an "alcohol smell" that is a byproduct of the enzymes doing their work, but after the second day, ALL of the smell was gone, and the carpets looked like new. This stuff works, but people need to know, this is ENZYME based, not chemical or soap based, so it takes TIME to do its job, but it WILL do it, and do it well. Think of enzymes as little critters that live off of urine, blood, and feces, and will eat and eat until they have nothing else to eat. After a couple of days, you can clean the carpets again to get rid of any remaining traces that may be left, but if you don't give this stuff time to do what it does, you are just wasting your money (like the guy that called in the "pros" afterward...all they did was soak up the enzymes that were already doing their job, then probably putting more on there along with some sort of chemical deodorizer that seals the urine into the carpet and padding so you couldn't smell it, which in return, will not allow enzymes or anything else from that point on to remove what urine they sealed in). So...use this stuff, then, LET IT SIT AND DO ITS JOB, even if its for a couple of days, it will work, DO NOT RINSE, after a few days, re-clean the carpet if you like, but don't do it BEFORE ITS DONE WORKING!! The added smell means its doing its job, not that it didn't.

It is only a deodorant, therefore you still have the wetness issue. If you are wearing any type of blouse that shows wetness you will still see those wet stains. You just will not emit an odor.

This a well constructed box & can't imagine it won't be around for many, many years. As for stains, how could urine & feces stain plastic? Unless you're an absolute pig who doesn't clean a litter box for years on end, I don't understand your question? You should probably contact the manufacturer.

I used it on a mattress that had been "marked" so often that it turned yellow. I sprayed enough to saturate a large section of it and it removed all evidence of the stain. The smell was much less intense and I know that when I finish the mattress, it will look and smell unmarked.

My experience with Nature's Miracle Advanced Stain has been great. I have sprayed it on places where my dog has urinated, thrown-up and had loose bowels. Our dog is now 3 years old and we have no odors, I have even got down and smelled the carpet after it has dried and no odor.
