Yes - Tomato juice from a carton/bottle. Traeding whole tomatoes in (like grape pressing might work, but I haven't heard that advice!!!

Guess you'd have to hire a cleaner to get the juice out of carpets. J used it on a wood floor.

Don't know if I can get this link to work - if I do it will be a first, if not just do a search for posts by Bellaluna with the keyword tomato!

Scrub the juice into the floor, then wipe/scrub up the juice and the small comes with it.

Good luck - not nice to have a baby in a p***y room
D'ya know Hilary, that sounds like an excellent idea and one that I should beat myself over the head for, I use exactly that on the dogs to rid the whiffs if they've rolled in something. I posted about it only the other day - If I had a brain I would be dangerous!

MANY THANKS

Think Azz is totally right, the bacteria still exists so it needs to be killed off, and care with using the water because of rot and silverfish...they love a moist area to breed in and that won't be pretty.

Oh Maplecottage you will know about it when your German Shepherd has a wee, it is like a flood I remember when Sabre was 12 weeks old (when we first got him) and he had a few wees in the kitchen and I couldn't believe how much he could do One good thing about them though is that they soon learn and are very easy to housetrain (unlike Bichons ) because they are so intelligent, Oooh I am soo jealous of you, I think I will come and dognap your Fern
