I placed my order thursday...just wondering how long they take to send it, this is the first time Ive ordered from them.

I have ordered Odourfresh too as a result of reading this post... thank you for the recommendations.
I have ordered Orange, Lemon, Coconut and Bubblegum... we'll see how it goes!

On another thread some one had mentioned Virkon early on in it (i always read the whole post before comenting) so i had asked what it was - but its been deleted by the moderaters -is Virkon only for pets ? do they sell only in pet stores?

I ment to mention also that i looked on Ebay for odourfresh and some one is doing 4x5l for £21.99 with free shipping!!!
- By WestCoast Date 27.02.11 09:28 UTC
I've only ever bought these sort of products from trade stands at shows because I've known friends buy through Ebay and what they've received has definitely been diluted and so not cheaper at all....... :(

I've always used biological whatever to clean and remove odours and Parvocide to disinfect. :)

The manufacturers of Odourfresh (in Belfast) seem to have phases where they do great deals like 4x5L with free postage, then revert to silly money plus postage (which is a lot!). Also it seems to come in various strengths eg. 1:50, 1:100, 1:300, 1:500. Then they also do it in 1L containers, but that works out at something like £15 inc P&P.....

I ended up so thoroughly confused in the end, I decided I would stick to Zoflora. Unless anyone near me (Somerset) wants to buy 1 x 5L (and can collect from me) then it just isn't worth bothering with Odorfresh however much the range of nice smells makes me salivate!

I have bought and used Urine Off and it is really good.
Zoflora gives me a headache - used it when the babies (human) were born.

Like the sound of Mistral - will give it ago

Spray the area with a mixture of white vinegar and water, 1/2 and 1/2. Really works and is safe.
- By Nova Date 10.10.11 12:38 UTC
Does vinegar kill off bugs? It is very acid but I would be surprised if all or even most infective agents were killed by acid alone.

I bought a steam cleaner a month ago and will never go back to disinfectants again :) Everything in my house has now been steam cleaned! Rugs...vinyl...dog beds....laminate....toaster....oven!! The dogs are lucky to have escaped steam cleaning! For a lovely smell, you can add a little essential oil to the water too - again, non-toxic and very effective at bug busting!

Virkon is used by vets , be aware it corrodes metal .....
I love the smell of Crommesol and love it when I walk  by their stands at dog shows.

See if your local pet shop stocks or can get for you Sherley's Spray Away Plus 400ml
I think its the best product for urine smells on the market it also takes red wine stains out of white rugs ( it saved my life once)
Contains cleaning agents and special bacteria which love to eat up organic stains and odour-producing substances, both of which pets are apt to produce. Once the stain has been removed, the bacteria die. So smells are removed, and don't come back later, when perfumes wear off, as may happen with many other cleaning products. Also excellent for removing grass, red wine and food stains.

I use either Safe4Pets or Virkon at my training classes.

By the way, this is a v old thread...
- By bccoplestone [nz] Date 31.10.12 04:11 UTC
I use soda water. No stain and no smells - I can recommend it.
- By freelancerukuk [gb] Date 31.10.12 08:58 UTC
Clean with washing powder and rinse well and dry then wipe over with a dab of surgical spirit. This will break down enzymes and remove smell. However, keep pups away from area until totally dry and odour-free . Surgical spirit does have a strong smell but this goes quickly.

I have a few tips for reduce the smell of dog urine....

1. Take care of all messes

2. 5 Gallon can-

3. Dump in lemon scented fluid dish Washer cleanser- One measure to 1 gallon VERY VERY high temp water (close bubbling) Mix.

4. Have an association with cement with floor brush or brush. (on the other hand pour it on and spread it around) Let sit least of 30 minutes.

5. Wash, re- flush, let dry and flush again and permit to dry.

You can do this a few times however it ordinarily works the first run through. It appears to work best on a sunny day.

My companion did this for quite some time- my hypothesis is the catalysts in the cleanser break down the pee.
