PeedOff… Good idea using a shop vac to help dry it! I’ve been researching every where online trying to find out how to clean urine from a memory foam mattress. Since it has been so cold out my dog doesn’t like to go potty outside anymore. She waits until she is nice and cozy in my new bed! The odor then attracted my other dog, so now I’ve got TWO dogs peeing in my bed! My problem is that it’s a king size and I just don’t have the space or time to let it air dry for a week. I never thought about using a shop vac. Thanks for that tid bit of info! If you read this, let us know how it worked out.

Our problem is that there is no way we have space to coordinate passing a heavy amount of cleaning solution through our mattress – nor do we have time to let it dry for a week. Based on the advice here I’m going to try shallow-soaking the area our toddler soaked (BTW – swim diapers are apparently not to absorb anything; just catch poo – should come with a warning or something…), but when it comes to drying I’m going to try sucking the water out with a shop vac – hoping airflow is enough to pull out the liquid and speed up the drying process and avoid having to move the mattress off the bed. Good luck to everyone else here.

Thank you! Excellent idea about the waterproof material. We have an extra one from the crib that we can use. I never thought never thought about that.

Hi there,
I have a rather embarrassing question, i had a few “woman” issues for the last couple of years with really heavy bleeding and then sadly a miscarriage, unfortunately on our not so old memory foam, ive tried everything that i feel safe enough to clean the mattress with, its not gone though and its embarrassing everytime i change the bed especially when my husbands in the room, he doesnt bother but i do, so any help with this would be appreciated, i wasnt sure how delicate the mattress would be for such harsh chemicals as i dont want to completely ruin the mattress as it was expensive and i need it really for my back, again any help would be appreciated.
many thanks and godbless.

I have used microfiber towels to soak up the excess liquid. Instead of using and hydrogen peroxide I used Odor Ban which is a general cleaning solution and order “eater.” It eliminates odors like this and kills the bacteria as well. You can pick this up at Sam’s Club, Menards, Lowes, or Home Depot. Thank you for your help.

FYI: The yellowing of memory foam is a result of oxidation. It is a natural process.
