Rocco & Roxie Supply Co. Rocco & Roxie Professional Strength Stain & Odor Eliminator vs Nature's Miracle Advanced Stain & Odor Eliminator for Dogs
Which should you buy? Our verdict on both, pulled from our full The Best Pet Stain and Odor Removers: 4 Compared (and One to Skip) comparison.
Rocco & Roxie is the safest single bottle to own: a genuine bio-enzymatic formula, certified safe for carpet, mild scented and forgiving as long as you soak the spot and give it time. Nature's Miracle Advanced is the one to buy when the accident soaked into the pad, because its saturation instructions are the most useful in the category and its price lets you use enough of it.
Rocco & Roxie Supply Co. Rocco & Roxie Professional Strength Stain & Odor Eliminator
Buy itA true bio-enzymatic formula with carpet-safety certification and a scent that does not take over the room.
- Bacteria-based formula that activates on contact and consumes the ammonia crystals behind lingering urine smell
- Carries the Carpet and Rug Institute Seal of Approval, so it has been checked for fiber damage and soil-attracting residue
- Mild scent that fades rather than layering perfume over the problem
- Works across carpet, upholstery, bedding, crates, car interiors and litter areas
- Needs a genuine soak and an hour or more on set-in spots; light misting is where most disappointed reports start
- Water-based, so the maker says to use it sparingly on wood, and to colorfast-test silk and wool first
- A trigger bottle is an expensive way to treat a whole contaminated room
Nature's Miracle Advanced Stain & Odor Eliminator for Dogs
Buy itThe best instructions in the category attached to a bacteria-based formula cheap enough to use in the volume real saturation needs.
- Directions actually teach the technique: saturate to the odor source, lift carpet and treat the pad on bad spots, damp towel over the area for one to two hours on old odors
- Bacteria-based formula keeps producing enzymes as long as organic material is present
- Widely stocked and inexpensive enough to buy the large sizes deep contamination requires
- Label warns that other cleaners used first may chemically set a stain, which is guidance most brands leave out
- The fragrance splits opinion, with a fair number of owners calling it sharp rather than fresh
- Confusing product line: Advanced, foam, set-in stain, urine destroyer, dog and cat versions, and the basic Stain & Odor Remover is weaker
- Set-in stains often need repeat applications rather than one pass
