| Smelly odor. How do I get rid of it? YUCKY! My backyard patio area stinks!!! I like to sit out there too so I am sad. Until recently chloe would always pee on the cement patio instead of going off into the grass. And my next door neighbors have a couple of outside cats that LOVE to mark my patio . SO when it rains like it has all day today it really brings out the bad smell. Anybody know a product that would help for outside cement? Any special secret tricks? Pwease help. Odor is slightly creeping into house

| Natures Miracle worked for me for this same problem. It was a little more expensive but it worked. You could also use bleach. But you might kill off some grass and you dont want to let your pups out there til the bleach is dry. |

-- Whatever you end up using I would just let it sit and soak into the cement to really get the smell out.

| I don't know for sure how to get rid of the smell but I have heard that a way to keep the cats away is to have your husband or any guy who will do it , to pee on the same spots. I HAVE never tested this but I have heard it will work. Let us know if you talk someone into doing it LOL! |

I am the same way. I want people to come over and not even be able to tell I have dogs but i feel like there has got to be a smell. Does anyone know if you can also use those products on tile and grout? INside the house

| I thought I'd post this for everyone,,, It worked great,,, on cat urine spots I had,,, Thought it would be worth a shot for you with Puppy spots... 1. bottle hydrogen peroxide (normal size) 2. teaspoon dawn dish soap 3. tablespoon baking soda Mix in container,, and pour on spots or put in squirt bottle,,, saturate spots, let dry ( totally), overnight, and vacuum up. Give it a try,,, worked on cat urine,, and it doesn't get much worse than that smell! __________________ Rhonda The above was posted by "rrosenberry" back in April & I had saved it in case I ever needed to try it out! Several on YT tried it & said it worked great! (You can go to Search>cat odor & check out the posts by those who tried it.) |

| Someone, somewhere suggested using white vinegar diluted with water. This works but someone else suggested using perfume over the pee spots so they won't go there again. This also works. Since it's outside I think I'd do both. Use the diluted vinegar and let it soak and then use a floral perfume on top when it is dry. I don't know, maybe the perfume might drive the cats away for a few days. I have some body splash that is some kind of lemon and when Pirogue pees on the wall or some place he can get at I will splash this stuff on and he'll come sniff and back off like it stinks but he doesn't go there anymore. Well at least for a couple of weeks. I haven't caught him peeing in the same places but right next to where I splashed the stuff on. It's like he's getting as close to marking HIS spot as he can. I'm gonna buy some of that paint on sealant and go around the base of all my walls and the floor just below. That'll fix him. Haha. Oh, I didn't say how much to mix. I think it was 1 cup of vinegar to 3 cups of water. It doesn't need to smell like vinegar to work. Sylvia Last edited by Lady of Yorkies; 07-07-2005 at 03:57 PM. |

| Product that I swear by I have two yorkies and a cat and I used Natures Miracle and it worked so-so. Then I found a product that I swear by, it is called "Get Serious Stain Extractor" I have never used a product that worked better than this. Also, for the odor in your home, take a squirt bottle, purchase a liquid fabric softener that is perfumed and that you like, for instance Downey lavendar. Mix in bottle with water. Use this to wipe your tables, counters, appliances etc, Also use the hot oil plug ins or purchase perfumed oil and use in various places in your home. I have the three animals and people always comment about how good my house smells. The Get Serious is available at Petsmart. I use it on everything, had an old blazer that had nicotine stains on it that the cleaner or washer could not get rid of, since it looked like it was a loss, soaked it in this stuff and the blazer is like new. |
