Organic Smell Remover - Removes cat pee and skunk odors!

Removes cat pee and skunk odors! What could be better?

I have tried it, and yes it removes cat pee smells. I have not had the opportunity to try it on skunk smells, but if ever the opportunity arises, it will be my first choice. I have a friend who told me about the recipe for removing cat pee and other icky smells. I recently saw it on a PBS documentary about skunks.

Now for the recipe:

• 1 liter (quart) of hydrogen peroxide
• 1/4 cup baking soda
• 1 tsp soap

Place all ingredients in a spray bottle, shake, and enjoy. A couple of notes:

1. Do not store the solution - it will produce gases and the container could explode, so please do not store the solution it only costs a few cents to make it fresh each time you need it
2. Test it for bleaching before you soak down that favorite article of clothing. Hydrogen peroxide is used as a bleaching agent. Although I have not tried it out, I have heard that you can substitute ammonia for hydrogen peroxide (but again, test it before you use it).

I have used this for a myriad of other smells including removal of doggy odors from furniture. I have also washed cat pee stained blankets in a modified version of the solution (substituting some laundry detergent for the soap). Note also, that I usually just eyeball the solution personally; a touch of soap, some baking soda and some peroxide to mix it with (I sometimes add a little water if I run out peroxide and need a little more liquid in the solution); however, I suggest following the recipe for best results. I have had good results in the washing machine - I usually just use a little less laundry detergent than usual and add a good dousing of peroxide and a sprinkling of baking soda.
