Today I bought my first M.H. A 1985 2/1 in pretty good condition. Paid $1,500 to the bank that repossesed it and 950 for moving to a different park with $120 lot rent(comparables rent for $425 and sell for 9k). Some outside paint and it will be ready (about two weeks).Thanks to “deals on wheels” Lonnie Scruggs, and all of those that recommended it. Also, the other day i saw a post on cat urine smell and didn’t pay much attention to it. Now try guessing what other little problem cme with the home??? Suggestions please…

Thanks again,
Ed Ortiz

Ed,
Jim hit the nail on the head, rip it, if it’s real bad a diluted pine or lemon scented bleach solutioncan be applied, let it air out for a day or two and KILZ it, then try Del’s suggestion, ODOBAN from Sam’s club works well after the KILZ seals it. Good Luck to you.

Ed,
Does the MH have carpeting in it?
If it does, the odor is in that, the padding and possibly the wood flooring under that.
the best way to get rid of the smell is to remove the carpet and padding, paint the floor boards with KILZ (the oil based one) and then recarpet the place.
If there are base boards, you may want to replace that as well.
When a cat sprays, they usually do it on the floor next to the wall, which gets the urine in the wood base boards, and tack strips.
They hold the odor, and the only way to get rid of that totally is to replace that wood.
Since it is a MH, there cannot be that many yards of carpet needed, so the cost should not be much.

Hope that helps,
Jim IL

P.S. Trust me on this, I have 6 cats, and have done this in my own home a couple of times. Good thing I love my critters, and could afford to clean up after them. Õ¿Õ
