I've been mopping my floors with vinegar and water for years.  With dogs
around anytime you drop food on the floor they dive for it.  At least when
they're licking the food off the floor they're not also getting Mop N Glo.
Definitely smells bad but I do my mopping on a day that I can leave the door
and windows open for an hour or two until the vinegar smell dissipates.  On
the other hand, both my dogs died from cancer anyway so I'm not sure if it
actually made a difference as far as decreasing the amount of toxins they
take in!


I am not interested to know whether vivisection produces results that are
profitable to the human race or doesn't..the pain which it inflicts upon
unconsenting animals is the basis of my enmity toward it, and it is to me
sufficient justification of the enmity without looking further. - Mark

  spray corners of the rooms and cat trees and everything (hot spots,

  for 20 minutes or so before going through the normal cleaning routine.
 
  After the vinegar and water soak we vaccuum and mop with Dr. Broners

Re: [Felvtalk] urine odors

2011-12-17 Thread GRAS
Yes, you can use on carpets – but as always, using anything, test on a corner 
somewhere. For very strong odor, I do 50/50…for washing floors, I do ½ c to a 
gal. water….in a spray bottle, to spray and wipe, I use a smaller amount, like 
¼ c. – you can make it any ratio you feel like for any specific job.  I rinse 
with water, and the smell eventually dissipates.  It’s great in the laundry in 
the rinse water.

The vinegar and water solution is a great deodorizer all around.  Poop and

Itsmells great, comes in concentrated form, and you can dilute

One of the best odor removers is Dawn dishwashing detergent.  You won't believe 
it til you try it.  I always clean with that first and then spray with a 
urine/enzyme product.  You can use a triple threat with dawn, baking soda and 
vinegar but I find the most effective combo is the dawn and the enzyme product. 
 OUT that is sold at Tractor Supply is reasonably priced and I find it to be 
very effective after using the Dawn.

How about vinegar.  When we have a problem child, I pour 1/2 gal vinegar to 4 
bath towels and 1 gal to a spread and wash on heavy cycle.  Works every time.

We've actually done half vinegar and half water and yes it can be used on 
anything.

We've actually incorporated the  vinegar and water into our weekly cleaning 
sessions.  We fill spray bottles with vinegar and water and spray corners of 
the rooms and cat trees and everything (hot spots, where cats do bad things) 
and just spritz it all down and let it sit for 20 minutes or so before going 
through the normal cleaning routine.

After the vinegar and water soak we vaccuum and mop with Dr. Broners peppermit 
liquid soap, and wipe down surfaces and all.  But the vinegar and water really 
deals with odors well.

I have not used it in the washing machine yet but I think I'll be trying that 
very soon.

For the record I have never liked the smell of vinegar.  But the vinegar smell 
dissipates and it really does nutralize odors
