Peroxide product

Hydrogen peroxide is excellent at combating unpleasant odors.

Then pour the peroxide into a spray bottle and spray it onto the sofa.

Leave it like this for 15 minutes, and then vacuum it thoroughly.

A remedy with soda

A glass of soda should be mixed with the same amount of water.

The result should be a fairly thick gruel.

The product should be applied to the surface of the sofa and left for an hour. Then it should be removed with a vacuum cleaner.

Vinegar remedy

To prepare the solution, mix one glass of vinegar and water.

Then spray the product on the sofa and leave it for half an hour. Afterwards, it also needs to be vacuumed thoroughly.
