Tapis malodorant : les 4 odeurs les plus fréquentes et comment les éliminer
Les tapis dans nos maisons servent à protéger nos planchers et absorber l’eau et les saletés. Toutefois, ceux-ci peuvent parfois retenir de mauvaises odeurs qui sont très déplaisantes lorsque nous entrons dans notre maison. Voici les quatre odeurs les plus fréquentes sur un tapis et comment les éliminer efficacement en quelques minutes. Enlever les odeurs d’humidité sur un tapis Par temps pluvieux et neigeux, notre tapis d’entrée absorbe beaucoup plus d’eau qu’à l’habitude et il se peut qu’après un certain temps, celui-ci dégage une odeur d’humidité. Pour éliminer cette odeur rapidement, nous vous conseillons de vaporiser le Neutralisant d’odeurs de fumée pour tissus partout sur votre tapis. Ce produit agit dès qu’il touche à la source de la mauvaise odeur et en quelques minutes, l’odeur d’humidité aura complètement disparu. Si l’eau a complètement traversé le tapis et que celui-ci est mouillé des deux côtés, vous pouvez vaporiser le Neutralisant d’odeurs de fumée pour tissus de l’autre côté pour vous assurer d’éliminer complètement la mauvaise odeur d’humidité.Si vous désirez nettoyer votre tapis qui dégage une odeur d’humidité, vous pouvez utiliser le Neutralisant d'odeurs d'humidité. Il suffit de diluer 120 ml de ce produit dans quatre litres d’eau et de l’insérer dans une machine à tapis. Nettoyer ensuite votre tapis et laisser sécher à l’aide d’un ventilateur. Éliminer l’odeur d’urine de chat ou de chien sur un tapis Votre chat ou votre chien est nerveux lorsque vous recevez de la visite et celui-ci s’est échappé sur votre tapis d’entrée ou celui du salon. Neutraliser efficacement cette mauvaise odeur avec le Neutralisant d’odeurs d’urine. Ce produit est très efficace pour les odeurs d’urine et n’abîme pas les tissus. Si votre tapis est mince, il suffit de vaporiser le produit sur la zone atteinte par l’odeur d’urine (les deux côtés du tapis) et de laisser sécher. Si vous désirez nettoyer votre tapis, nous vous conseillons de diluer 4 onces de Désinfectant pour surfaces dures et non poreuses et neutralisant d'odeurs d'animaux dans 4 litres d’eau et d’insérer cette dilution dans une machine à tapis. Par la suite, nettoyer le tapis et laisser sécher à l’aide d’un ventilateur.Si votre tapis est plus épais, il vous suffit de faire, à l’aide d’une petite corde, un cercle autour de la zone de l’urine et de l’agrandir de quelques centimètres (la zone où l’urine se trouve peut s’être agrandie un peu). Par la suite, injecter à l’aide d’une seringue munie d’une aiguille le Neutralisant d’odeurs d’urine, en commençant les traitements de l’extérieur du cercle vers l’intérieur (voir dessin ci-dessous). Faites des injections de 3 à 5 ml de produit et espacez chaque injection d’environ 1 pouces. Enfin, vaporiser le Neutralisant d’odeurs d’urine sur la zone traitée et laisser sécher. Neutraliser l’odeur de chien Si votre chien se couche toujours sur votre tapis et que son pelage dégage une mauvaise odeur, il se peut que les fibres du tapis absorbent cette odeur et dégagent par la suite une odeur de chien ou de poil mouillé. Pour vous débarrasser rapidement de cette mauvaise odeur, il vous suffit de vaporiser le Neutralisant d’odeurs de literie pour animaux partout sur le tissu et de laisser agir. Ce produit est formulé précisément pour éliminer l’odeur de chien sur le tapis, même si cette odeur est présente depuis longtemps. Ce produit est sans danger pour les animaux et n’abîme pas les tissus. Il est recommandé de toujours faire un test sur une petite surface non visible, ne pas utiliser sur les tissus qui peuvent tacher en présence d’eau. Si vous voulez nettoyer votre tapis, il suffit d’utiliser la même méthode que mentionné plus haut avec le Désinfectant et neutralisant d'odeurs d'animaux et la laveuse à tapis. Enlever l’odeur de transpiration Durant l’hiver, il peut arriver que nos bottes ainsi que nos pieds dégagent une odeur de transpiration. En nous déchaussant chaque jour sur le même tapis, au bout d’un moment celui-ci peut commencer à sentir la transpiration. Pour supprimer cette mauvaise odeur, nous vous conseillons de vaporiser le Neutralisant d’odeurs de fumée pour tissus directement sur le tapis et de laisser agir le produit. Truc d'expert Si vous retrouvez l’un de ces problèmes d’odeurs sur d’autres surfaces absorbantes comme des rideaux, des vêtements, de la literie, vous pouvez les traiter de la même façon qu’avec un tapis.
Work boots and shoes: how to care for them and keep them long-lasting?
Taking care of your work shoes and boots is an important factor in their longevity. Taking a few minutes to remove bad odours, to clean them or to store them in an appropriate space helps to keep our work shoes in better condition for longer. Here are a few tips to help you keep your boots or protective shoes looking their best for as long as possible! A few tips for general boot care To keep your work shoes in good condition for a long time, it's important to take care of them and maintain them daily. Royer, the manufacturer of safety boots and shoes, shares some important tips on how to keep your work boots and shoes in good condition for a long time to come: Follow the manufacturer's recommendations. To maintain the shoe's grip, remove any encrustations of mud or snow, as well as any gravel or metal parts. Brush your shoes to remove stains and dirt, or use a damp cloth to wash them. But forget soap, because leather doesn't like it! Leave your shoes to dry in a warm, dry, well-ventilated room, away from sources of direct heat such as an electric baseboard heater. Avoid leaving them to dry in the sun. If they're made of leather, apply a quality grease or silicone recommended for leather to waterproof them. If they are made of synthetic fabric, clean them by hand with water and mild soap. The same drying instructions apply as for leather. How to remove perspiration odors After a long day's work, you may find that your work boots or shoes smell of perspiration. Forget homemade recipes, deodorizers or enzyme/bacteria-based products. Instead, use an odor neutralizer that will eliminate bad odors on the spot, like Perspiration Odor Neutralizer. Specifically designed to neutralize the smell of perspiration on fabrics, Perspiration Odor Neutralizer can be used in wet or dry footwear. To remove the bad smell, simply spray the product all over the boots or shoes (don't forget to treat all the way through) and leave to dry naturally. It's important to understand that every time you wear your shoes, you sweat inside them. So the source of the perspiration odor keeps coming back. Ideally, we recommend you spray Sweat Odour Neutralizer every evening when you get home from work, but some people only feel the need to treat every 2-3 days. Unlike a deodorant that momentarily masks unpleasant odors, or an enzyme/bacteria-based product that only needs to be applied to damp boots, Perspiration Odor Neutralizer eliminates unpleasant odors as soon as it touches the source, right from the first use. What's more, it won't damage fabrics and leaves shoes smelling fresh. Perspiration Odor Neutralizer also removes sweat odors from sports bags, sports equipment, running shoes and winter boots. Tips for removing damp smell from boots When it rains, water can seep into our boots, giving them a bad smell. To eliminate damp odors, we recommend the use of Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics and Ambient Air. This product is a highly effective odor neutralizer for removing damp or musty odors from fabrics. Simply spray it into boots or shoes that give off an unpleasant odor, and leave it to work. It's important to spray Smoke Odour Neutralizer for Fabrics all the way to the bottom of the shoe, so that the product reaches the entire source of the odour. As soon as it's applied, the product eliminates the odor, rather than masking it as a deodorant would. What's more, because Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics is alcohol-based (the same type of alcohol found in perfumes), it dries very quickly and won't stain fabric.
How to get rid of unpleasant odours on clothes
Have you ever had to clean a garment that had a bad odor, and it persisted even after a good wash? Many of our customers experience odors on their clothes and don't necessarily know how to remove stubborn odors effectively. Here are four common odors and how to get rid of them. Remove perspiration odor from clothing If your sportswear smells of perspiration even after you've aired it out and cleaned it, we recommend you use Perspiration Odor Neutralizer. This odor neutralizer is specifically designed to remove perspiration odors from clothing, shoes, boots and sports equipment. Simply spray the product onto clothing and leave to work. You can then clean them in the washing machine with a conventional detergent. Eliminate musty or damp odors After a long stay in a wardrobe, your clothes may smell musty. Clothes that have been left in the washer for a long time may also smell damp. A musty smell on clothes can remain in the fabric even after cleaning. So, to quickly remove stale or damp odors from clothing, we recommend using Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics and Ambient Air. This product is an odor neutralizer that effectively eliminates musty odors from fabrics. To remove the smell of dampness from your clothes, simply spray Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics onto the smelly clothes and leave it to work. As this product is alcohol-based, it dries very quickly and won't stain fabrics. You can then clean them in the washing machine with a conventional detergent. Remove cigarette odor from clothing If your clothes smell of cigarettes, cigars or fire even after a good wash, we recommend you use Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics and Ambient Air once again.

Stinky sofa: the 4 most common odors and how to get rid of them
The living room is probably one of the rooms where we spend the most time in our home. It's the ideal meeting place for family and friends, and the perfect place to relax after a long day. However, it's hard to relax and have a good time in this room when the sofa is giving off unwanted odors. Here are some common couch odors and how to remove them permanently. Removing the smell of animal urine If you have a cat or dog at home, it may have escaped onto your couch once or twice. Before removing the smell of cat or dog urine, it's important to understand that the urine has seeped into the cushion. To eliminate the odour completely, you need to insert the product so that it touches the source of the smell. The product to use to remove animal urine odor is Urine Odor Neutralizer. This is an alcohol-based neutralizer specifically designed to completely eliminate the odor of urine, feces or vomit. If you apply Urine Odor Neutralizer to a colored fiber whose color is not well bonded to the fabric, it may leave a darker ring. Take a damp cloth and rub it in, and the ring will disappear! To neutralize odours on a fabric couch, start by marking out the area affected by the odour with a small string. Then insert 3 to 5 ml of Urine Odour Neutralizer (using a syringe and needle) inside this circle, starting from the outside inwards and leaving a 1” gap between each insertion (see image below). This technique applies the product to the entire surface of the source. Then spray Urine Odour Neutralizer over the surface and leave to work. As this product is alcohol-based, it won't damage your sofa by creating stains or mildew, as would a water-based product. What's more, your sofa will dry very quickly. If your sofa is made of leather, the technique is similar, but instead of injecting the Urine Odour Neutralizer directly onto the leather, we advise you to go through the seams so as not to create holes in the leather. For the last part of the treatment, instead of spraying the Urine Odour Neutralizer directly onto the surface, we recommend that you apply the product to a cloth and rub the surface with it. Then wipe off with a dry cloth. It's also important to test the product on an inconspicuous area to make sure there's no discoloration. Eliminate cigarette odor If you've bought a used sofa, it may have a cigarette smell if the previous owners smoked. To remove cigarette odor permanently, we recommend the use of our Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics and Ambient Air, which is designed to neutralize cigarette odor. For fabric sofas, simply spray Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics and Ambient Air onto the fabric and leave to work. If the tobacco smell is strong, the cushions may have absorbed the odor. As with urine odour, we suggest you insert the Smoke Odour Neutralizer for Fabrics into the cushions with a syringe and needle, and spray the product back onto the top. It's important to push into the cushions with your hands after treatment, so that the product penetrates deep into the couch. To neutralize a tobacco odor on a leather couch, you need to understand that leather is an odor-absorbing material. Spray Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics and Ambient Air on a cloth and rub the surface with it. Then wipe the top of the treated leather with a dry cloth. If the cigarette odor persists, you'll need to use a syringe and needle to inject the product deep into the seams of the sofa. Remove perspiration odor If you have teenagers at home, they may be putting their feet up on the cushion, and as they do so, the place where they put their feet gives off the smell of perspiration. To eliminate the smell of perspiration, without damaging your sofa or creating stains, we recommend you use Perspiration Odour Neutralizer. As with cigarette odors, you need to spray the product on the area where the odor is coming from and leave it to work. If the odor is on a leather couch, simply rub the surface with a cloth previously sprayed with Perspiration Odor Neutralizer and then wipe with a dry cloth. Eliminate dog odors If you have a dog at home and it often lies on the couch, it may give off a doggy smell after a while. The product to use to eliminate this odor is Pet Bedding Odor Neutralizer. This is an odor neutralizer designed to remove dog odor from fabrics. As this is a water-based product, we recommend you always test a small, inconspicuous area before spraying the entire surface. For fabric sofas, simply spray the product directly onto the dog-scented surface and leave to work.If the odor is coming from a leather couch, spray Pet Bedding Odor Neutralizer on a clean cloth and gently rub the area affected by the odor with it. Then wipe off with a clean cloth. Unlike deodorizers, which mask odors, our product eliminates them at source, so they disappear completely. You can use Pet Bedding Odor Neutralizer at any time, even if your couch doesn't give off unwanted odors. Its pleasant juniper and pear scent will refresh your home, creating a harmonious living environment!
