The good old way! White vinegar: did you know the only way to stop cat urine smell is the white vinegar. The floor mop will not develop smelly bacteria if you poor vinegar on it. I wash with vinegar the floor, the window, etc.  My dog have once skunk smell and after 3 bath with vinegar, it was gone. In the first 10 minutes the smell of vinegar fade. Vinegar and baking soda are very useful for any kind of washing, and the are not dangerous for nature.  I am Quebecoise that explain my English ....
