Getting rid of a pong........

[binley100]

Eldest has bought a house that belonged to an elderly couple. The bathroom has a whiff of eau de pee even though I've bleached everywhere including the floorboards. (the carpet was absolutely rank and so was the lino underneath) . Any advice on how to get rid of the smell please.

[Jeanied]

You can get something in a pet shop for pets peeing in the wrong place. It breaks down the proteins in the urine and removes the smell.

Thanks Jeanie....will investigate.

That's what we bought for our incont cats....a protein neutraliser ...it works a treat -but is deffo quite expensive!
Sodium bicarb wash perhaps first???????

[binley100]

D'oh ......why didn't I think of bicarb ........ used to work a treat when the kids were babies ....I think it'll be a scrub not a wash tho' .

Here ya go...this stuff is like gold dust...about £5 if I recall- but is also wizzo around the base of loos where there are 'blokes' around

We used to get ours from our vets...maybe cheaper from your vet????

You probably clean your coop more often than this has been cleaned Snadge......this is soaked into the floorboards ......makes me want to vom just thinking about it..

On the same lines any ideas how to get rid of soap marks left from years of having a shower on the sides of the shower glass. I have tried window cleaner, shower cleaner, lemon, jiff ,vinegar, now run out of ideas, sorry to hijack your thread Bins but didnt like to start a new one.

Have you tried Viakal, it worked here

[Nicos]

Sounds like the same thing....but twice the quantity for roughly the same price??? Ergo- half as powerful????

Buy more than you think you need- BUT - sounds like the business Bins!


Stella....errrrmmm...gosh- sorry- no idea!!!
