My renter’s just moved out of my property and left it a huge mess! There were diapers left around and when I picked them up, there was a black stain in the hardwood flooring from the urine. How can I get rid of this? Thanks for your help!
If I sand through it, will it need a clear cover or a stain?

    Just mix one-half cup of vinegar with one gallon of warm water. You may want to adjust the ratio of vinegar to water if you find that it’s not cleaning as well as you would like. Use this solution to mop your floors as normal with a damp (not wet) mop or cloth, taking extra care to not leave any standing puddles of liquid. Allow the floor to dry naturally, or use a floor dryer to speed up the process.

    Hardwood floors require some special care, but using vinegar to clean hardwood floors might make buying special cleaning products unnecessary. You can find vinegar in any grocery store, it’s inexpensive, and it can actually remove odors from your home. You may even find that using vinegar to clean hardwood floors will leave your floors looking better than those expensive cleaners ever did.

    This is non toxic and works great to remove the smell of smoke, urine, rotten food, or anything smelly. Good luck!
