I did this recently. I was so overcome with the fumes that it caused me to vomit, cough and wheeze heavily! I aired out my house for about an hour. I got out of the house and got some fresh(er) air! That night I slept with my window open to get fresh air all night. It was not until the next day that I felt like myself again.

I gave it one day. But, if I did not clear up, I was going to the emergency room. I read something about chemical pneumonia. So that is my story! Hope it helps!

Will bleach clean urine stains?

Do not use bleach to clean urine. After urine has been sitting out for a while, it is full of ammonia. Ammonia and bleach mixed together create Chlorine gas, which is extremely dangerous. Specifically, it causes a lot of respiration problems and can even be fatal if you are exposed to it for too long. You're better off using something like nature's miracle or white vinegar on the urine.
