Sprinkle Baking Soda on The Spots
Good old-fashioned baking soda is another option to try. As you may know, baking soda does an excellent job of absorbing odors, including the smell of urine. This method involves putting some baking soda in a big container with a lid with holes. Then you simply sprinkle the baking soda onto the spots your dog pees. Be liberal when sprinkling the baking soda to ensure it can absorb all the urine odors.
Baking soda won’t harm the grass or damage cement. The key to this method is to let the baking soda sit for a while so it has time to absorb the urine odor.
Another method using baking soda is what some dog shelters use to eliminate the smell of urine. For this method, you need a handheld disinfectant sprayer. Once you have a sprayer, add a mixture of a little baking soda, vinegar, lemon juice, and water. Then it’s just a matter of following the directions on the sprayer and spraying the areas of dog pee with the solution.
If you’re worried about the cost of a disinfectant sprayer, you should know that you can find them online for less than $50, which isn’t much at all. Just remember that it will be worth every cent you pay if the sprayer helps you get rid of that unpleasant urine smell that’s bothering you and your guests every time you step outside.
Why Your Yard Smells Like Dog Pee
You probably already know that dogs tend to pee in the same spots over and over again. When your dog smells a spot in the yard that he’s peed on before, he takes it as a cue to urinate there again. As time goes by, this behavior results in the odor building up in those areas of your yard to the point the urine smell is intolerable. Plus, the acidity of dog urine can kill the grass and leave stain marks on cement.
