Hi I use evans odour neutraliser it's very good for fabrics, carpets etc the only thing is I'm not sure where you can buy it my brother gets mine from an hospital supplies warehouse as he is in the trade..but you could Google it xxMum is in hospital, urine incontinent, whilst I was ironing her clean nighties I still got a 'whiff', they had been washed at 40degrees, threw them back in the machine and washed them again at 50. Is washing enough or should I be soaking them first ie like nappies? And, if so, what in? TIA, xx
I think the problem is when the urine has been exposed to the air and dried, because the bacteria have then had time to create that awful pong -- no way round that if you're bringing items from hospital though.
I always put my OH's wet things straight into the washing machine, with non- bio powder at 40° and have never had any problems.
And I do have a very good sense of smell!
Hi sleepless.. Yes I agree but I used the neutraliser on dad's bedroom carpet and the landing carpet and it worked and the pleasant fragrance lasts for quite some time I will ask him the name of the company that supply it xx
That would be good to know, useful stuff to have in for carpets etc. or maybe even shoes, which are a pain to clean if they get wet inside?
Dusty at commented on the tumble dryeR .. That's my problem -was in a hurry so stuff shoved from washer into dryer before I had time to smell .. Now my whole kitchen reeks... Have tried Febreeze in dryer but no luck ... Any ideas .. Please !
A towel soaked in vinegar dried in the tumble drier then taken out and the door left open for the vinegar smell to go,
I was buying the Dettol laundry cleanser. It's AMAZING! Then it seemed to disappear from our local supermarkets. Every time I ordered it for home delivery I received 2 Dettol surface spray cleaners instead. If Armageddon arrives, I'll be the one who is fully loaded with anti-bac cleanser. You'll see me wandering about like a gun slinger, a spray in each hand.
