... to me just how many different bodily fluids one small special needs kiddo can produce - and in what quantities! Fortunately for me (and what's left of my house) I've been well trained by cats to clean up poop, hairballs, upchuck, and cat urine (the worst!). Some kiddo fluids can put the cats to shame though - through sheer quantity, if not stinky potency. My favorite cleaner for bodily fluids these days is Nature's Miracle. I had originally bought it for dealing with cat messes, but soon discovered that it worked great on kiddo excretions too. Works on carpet (hallelujah), vinyl floors, painted surfaces, and clothes. Works in the washer, too, and helps rid the laundry of any lingering odors - I put it in the bleach dispenser and in the fabric softener dispenser. Sometimes I also use it to spray laundry (like a stain pre-treater) if I can't wash the stinky stuff right away.
Sometimes, when I'm feeling flush, I also use BioKleen Bac-Out Stain and Odor Eliminator. I think it also works well, and it smells much nicer than Nature's Miracle. I sometimes save this for laundry where the smell will make a nice difference and use the less expensive Nature's Miracle for cleaning floors and carpets.
The pet stores carry gallon sizes of different kinds of Nature's Miracle - the least expensive, original, formula works just fine for human fluids. In my area the best prices are often at PetCo and PetsMart. I've also found good prices on-line, but don't usually have time to wait for delivery.
I've found the BioKleen at my local Whole Foods, Sprouts, and Central Market. If none of these are in your area, you can probably find it at your local "natural" foods store, or of course, on-line.
