How to Remove Urine from a Mattress

If you've ever had a young child in your home you know that potty accidents are a guarantee.  Night time accidents can become an issue if you are not properly protecting your child's mattress.  We had bought a hypoallergenic"water proof" mattress protector for our sons bed, but turns out it did absolutely no protecting.  Here is our simple and cheap solution to clean urine from a mattress.

Ingredients:

• 8oz 3% hydrogen peroxide
• 3 TBSP baking soda
• 1-2 drops of liquid dish soap

Carefully mix all ingredients and pour into a spray bottle.  Spray the urine stain and watch as the stain disappear before your eyes (or within the next 5-10 minutes).  Our stain was pretty bad so after I sprayed and waited, I sprayed a second time a rubbed it out with a rag.  I then opened the window and turned the fan on to allow to dry. 

To prevent further stains find a mattress protector that is actually water proof… or cut open a garbage bag and place a towel and underneath a regular mattress pad cover.
