My 9 year old asd son has been urniating on his bedroom floor now for the past few months. There s no medical reason for him doing this it is just simply the fact he can't be bothered to go to the toilet. He's not happy with the smell and i have tried everything to get rid of it and tried to explain to him that its there because he wees on the floor. He has done it so much the smell carries round the house and i am getting extremely upset now that i can't get rid of the smell no matter how i try and you can see with the looks on peoples faces when they enter the house how bad its getting. I really haven't a clue where to go from here. I have tried reward charts taking xbox time and other things like this i am clueless.

  • To get rid of the smell try sponging with vinegar.  Or spray Dettol to destroy the bacteria.  Or baking soda and water paste. Rub it into the area and apply distilled white vinegar over it. Blot this up with kitchen paper towels, and repeat it no more than two times. Follow that with a good rinsing of water, blotting up the moisture. It will smell like vinegar for a short time, but the urine smell should not come back.  You could also try Febreze Pet Odour eliminator spray.  And there is a specific product for this type of thing: http://www.urineoff.com/

    You need to ensure you get it dry all the way through so the salts in the urine that could be left won't reattract moisture and give off the smell again if there are bacteria left.

    If the carpet can stand it you could also hire a steam cleaner.
