My Thoughts on Nature’s Miracle Advanced Stain and Odor

July 18, 2017 By Johnny Salib 17 Comments

Hey Pet Parents & Pet Lovers

A few months ago Beau ended up peeing on a number of our things, so we went in search for a great cleaner and found Nature’s Miracle Advanced Stain And Odor and while it’s a great product, it’s not necessarily my favourite.

Nature’s Miracle is meant to clean all forms of animal mess (including faeces, markings & urine) and is meant to remove pheromones to prevent re-soiling. It can be used on multiples surfaces including carpets, wood, furniture, clothing… basically anything! Personally, I’ve used this product on my couch, Beau’s carrier, our tile floor, and my backpack.

My favourite thing about this product is… it actually works! Beau has peed in his career multiple times (especially as we have to travel by public transit to get to the vet and unfortunately… Beau is terrified of the subway. Since we visit different vets based on their availability and how much experience they have with certain conditions. (Especially since Beau has Pica and apparently not a lot of vets know what that is… or know how to treat it. Odd, right?)

For a while, we couldn’t understand why Beau didn’t like his carrier, but we actually narrowed it down to regular soap didn’t remove the smell/pheromones from the urine and he could still smell it. As soon as we used the product, Beau wouldn’t fight as much to get into his carrier and would happily sit inside. For this, I am extremely grateful.

Nature’s Miracle was also good when cleaning the floors in our house. We used a spray bottle on our couch and we used it in a mop bucket on the floors and both were effective. It’s just… the smell is so terrible! At first, it’s decent, but when you use it frequently.. man does it smell! I had to use Nature’s Miracle on my backpack when Beau had a UTI (as it was the object he would pee on to let me know he wasn’t feeling well.) I used it about 3 times on the backpack (making sure to also rinse it to get the smell of Nature’s Miracle out) but the scent is still there. I actually can’t use my backpack anymore because the smell is too strong. It’s really bad… I could smell it even when it was by my feet.

If it’s used in open spaces (such as floors), it doesn’t usually have the same effect on me. I can handle it. It’s just objects that you use daily, or objects that you would hold close to your body. The smell dissipated from our couch after a few days, which is good… I just wish it would leave my backpack. I’ve even tried spraying other scents on top to make it bearable, but that just made it worse.

From working at the pet store I do know that the formula was changed and that it did used to smell better, but man oh man… I hope it did!

In conclusion, I would recommend Nature’s Miracle to folks who aren’t sensitive to sent as it is honestly a really great cleaning product, but I would strongly recommend not using it on clothes or frequented objects.

How about you? Have you used Nature’s Miracle before? Do you use another product that may be better? I heard Scout’s Honour is pretty amazing!

    I’ve used the Natures Miracle Advanced Stain and Oder remover spray for years. I use it a little differently. I spray it on dog blankets and a dog quilt we lay over our bed before washing these items. Yes when sprayed the smell is quite strong. However once the blankets and quilt are washed there is absolutely no dog smell and no smell of Nature’s Miracle.

    Great review ! We don’t know that product. Claire uses baking soda or a mix of vinegar and water for almost everything. Purrs

      So it seems quite a number of people do! How do you find that on softer things? Does it work effectively? I may want to try it out. (I usually use it on solids)

    The mom uses it to clean our litter boxes…along with a little bleach. She says it works well.

      Do you find it has a weird heavy scent too? Or are you all good with it?

        I can’t stand the smell of the Nature’s Miracle Advanced. Does seem worse than the old version. Practically driving me out of the house and making me feel ill. I’ll have to try something else when dealing with cat urine outside litter box.

          Have you tried Scout’s Honor? I’ve heard really, really great things about it. I still haven’t had an opportunity to try it out though since my kitties haven’t peed around the house in a while.

    We use baking soda mixed in water for everything. Vomit, pee, poo…and even outside when a stray, unaltered male does his marking! It sanitizes, and removes any smell. I once purchases some Bissell Enzyme Action Cat Stain & Stink Remover for Carpet several years ago, but in the end, my stand-by of baking soda and water in a sprintz bottle was all I really needed.

      I love baking soda! I haven’t actually used it to clean in a while though. I should try it on the litter boxes sometime!

    If you have a pet a stain and odor spray is always good to have on hand.
