Help me find new uses for Pooph

This is an odor fighting spray that they advertised the daylights out of a few months back. So far it hasn't disappointed me, I use it mainly to get rid of the stink in the trash. No scented white bags for me, I am allergic to them. I'm currently experimenting with spraying the inside of some leather-lined Keen slides that I wear with bare feet. And I wouldn't dare, but the thought of using it instead of Lume crossed my mind.

@depglass

The guy in the ad sprays it into his mouth....so I would think if it can go into that opening, well, you know...!!

You try it and let us know!!!

It LOOKS like it's mainly citric acid or a derivative of citrus ingredients....might sting your "nether tissues", but probably won't hurt anything in the long run...!!!

Spray it on parts of your vacuum cleaner.

I use these 'Little Trees' in my tall-kitchen trashcan. Just throw one in the bottom under the bag and leave it there until the scent is gone. Lasts a long time. Comes in many scents.

@SilleeMee

Aren't those the little hanging on the rear view mirror deodorizers you find in auto supply stores?

My now 26yr old son when starting to drive had one hanging in his car, kind of a retro tongue in cheek thing for him, kids.

Exactly. Little Trees come in dozens of difference scents. I use the lavender one in my bathroom trashcan. Gives off just the right amount of scent.

This product is safe to use on yourself, animals and anything in your home according to the ads. The guy even sprays it in his mouth.

I think it could be used to freshen closets, storage boxes, areas, basements, bathrooms, shoes & boots & vehicles. What ever stinks.

Those little trees, and other hanging stuff, especially for cars are a huge cause of asthma and allergy attacks, per my daughters allergy doc.

@RedTop

Rather than pour the product down sink drains, it would be more economical and practical to use a Fuller brush and spray.

The smell comes from bits of food that was processed by the disposal and landed on the underside of the rubber fingers at the mouth of the disposal. Over time, the bits continue to deteriorate and decay. That is the cause of the smell.

Process: using the plastic tube attached to spray can, spray until the drain becomes filled with the product. Wait several minutes and then use the special hand brush to dislodge the gunk from the underside of the rubber tips.

Amazing what is under the tips! Smell will be gone for quite a while. Worst offender: broccoli !!!

@jlkz

You and I aren't on the same course as far as thoughts on using this product on drain lines.

I don't have a garbage disposal, but I do have several household drains that do not have water run thru them daily.

When a drain sits, it smells, which is where I use a lot of my Don Aslett XO odor neutralizer.

@RedTop

Since the drains are getting used, the water that normally sits in the S- curve of the drain is slowly evaporating. When it gets to a certain point, sewer gas comes up from below and is released. Hence the smell.

The same thing happens when toilets are not used in vacation homes and water evaporates to the point where the water in the S-curve pipe evaporates. Sewer gas has nothing to prevent it from coming into the bowl or air.

When we leave our FL condo for 9 months, the guy who comes in to check the premises always runs water i. Each sink and tub as well as flushes every toilet. Otherwise, sewer gas would eventually be released.

So it is not a case of not being on the same page, I.e. having or not having a garbage disposal. It is a case of physics.

@RedTop ................run water every week or so in those unused drains, that will prevent the sewer smell. Stop wasting money on the odor neutralizer.
