Tested on Hardwood and Carpets: Real Results with Rocco & Roxie's Professional Formula
By Marcus Vance
Q1: Does Rocco & Roxie work on stains that are several months old?
Yes, though older stains usually require multiple treatments. The dry uric acid crystals must be thoroughly rehydrated with the enzyme liquid. Cover the treated area with a damp towel to prevent fast evaporation, letting the bacteria work for up to 12 hours before blotting dry.
Q2: Is this formula safe to use around curious pets and children?
The product contains no chlorine bleach, hazardous propellants, or harsh chemical detergents. However, pets should stay off treated surfaces while the carpet is damp to prevent wet product transfer to paws and fur. Once the surface dries completely, it is non-toxic and skin-safe.
Q3: Can I run this cleaner through a commercial carpet extraction machine?
Rocco & Roxie is designed primarily as a localized spot treatment and pre-treatment spray. While it can be diluted into extraction tanks, foaming agents inside the formula can cause excess sudsing in certain machines. For best results, use it to pre-treat stains directly, then rinse using clean water in your carpet shampooer.
