Removing Urine Odor in Backyards: How-To Guide
Tired of your backyard reeking of cat or dog urine whenever the weather turns hot and humid? Don’t let a little pee smell cramp your fair-weather fun. This How-To Guide tells you everything you need to know about eliminating pet urine smell from any backyard surface – quickly, safely and completely. Eliminating animal pee smell (and all other unwanted odors) is easier than you think! In this guide: What’s the best product for eliminating urine odor: Neutralizer or deodorizer?How odor neutralizers workRemoving urine odor from hard surfacesRemoving urine odor from fabric surfacesRemoving urine odor from organic surfaces Eliminating other backyard odors Getting rid of skunk smell in backyardEliminating strong smell in garbage, recycling and compost binsHow to get more bang for your buck with multi-purpose odor destroyersWhere to find Purodora products What’s the best product for eliminating urine odor: Neutralizer or deodorizer? Many odor removers aren’t actually odor removers at all. They simply mask the odor, such as deodorizers. These products will work for a while, but eventually the pee smell will come back. Deodorizers often simply produce an unpleasant mix of odors that can make the situation worse. Purodora products use advanced odor neutralizing technology to eliminate even the most stubborn odors on contact (including products that eliminate skunk smell). Pro Tip How to stop animals from repeatedly urinating on the same spot Some animals like unneutered male cats will often mark their territory. Because their urine contains hormones that give it a particularly strong scent, these hormones will attract other animals for as long as any traces of the urine odor remain. There’s also a good chance that the initial culprit will come back to refresh his mark so as to not lose his territory. This can lead to a vicious (and smelly) cycle that can quickly discourage any pet owner. The only way to break this cycle is to eliminate the urine odor completely. Read on to see how. How odor neutralizers work Purodora odor neutralizers quickly eliminate all types of urine odors, including cat or dog urine, completely, quickly and permanently – even if the odor has been around for months or years. As soon as the product comes into contact with the source of the odor, it molecularly binds to it to neutralize the odor. The odor instantly disappears. The only smell that’s left behind is a light pleasant scent. See the science behind this advanced odor neutralizing technology and why Purodora products are guaranteed to work! Pro Tips The key is to make sure the odor neutralizer reaches ALL of the urine To eliminate the smell completely and permanently, odor neutralizers must come in contact with all of the urine (the source of the odor). To remove urine odors from porous or absorbent surfaces such as concrete, asphalt, soil, crushed stone, ceramic grout, raw wood or fabrics, a few treatments may be needed for the product to penetrate deep enough to reach all of the urine.

Eliminate Unwanted Odors in a Home – How-to Guide
Moving into a new house is always an exciting step in anyone’s life. After all, each home has its own unique charms. Unfortunately, some pre-owned homes also come with their own unique odors – some of which aren’t so charming. Whether you’re getting ready to move or simply tackling some much-needed spring cleaning, this How-To Guide will explain how to get rid of the most common (and unwanted) odors in a home. These tips are also great if you’re getting your home ready for sale. In this guide: What’s the best home odor remover: Neutralizer or deodorizer?How odor neutralizers workThe right technique for getting rid of odors in a home How to get rid of pet odors in the house (cat, dog, ferret, mouse)Eliminating cigarette smell in houseEliminating damp and musty smells from the houseWhat to do if you still smell the odor after a couple of treatmentsWhere to find Purodora products What’s the best home odor remover: Neutralizer or deodorizer? The particles behind a home’s strong, lingering odors such as urine, cigarette and musty smells, can seep into all sorts of surfaces. When it comes to eliminating any unwanted smell, you have to locate the source of the odor and neutralize it. Unfortunately, few products sold in stores are actually odor neutralizers; they simply mask or deodorize the smell. Some merely create an unpleasant mix of odors that can make the situation worse. Even if these products do work for a while, the unwanted odor will eventually return. To completely eliminate stubborn odors for good, you need a product containing an odor neutralizer that’s specific to the molecule behind the odor. Purodora products use advanced odor-neutralizing technology to eliminate even the most stubborn odors on contact (including products that eliminate skunk smell). How odor neutralizers work Purodora odor neutralizers quickly and permanently eliminate all types of tough odor problems, including cigar, wet dog smell and urine. They even eliminate odors that have been around for years. As soon as the product comes into contact with the source of the odor, it molecularly binds to it to neutralize the odor. The odor instantly disappears. The only smell Purodora products leave behind is a fresh, pleasant scent. See the science behind this advanced odor neutralizing technology and why Purodora products are guaranteed to work! PRO TIPFor best results, make sure the odor neutralizer reaches ALL of the unwanted odor To eliminate the unwanted smells completely and permanently, odor neutralizers need to come into contact with the entire source of the odor. For deeply embedded odors, a few treatments may be needed for the product to reach all of the odor-causing molecules and neutralize them entirely. The right technique for getting rid of odors in a home Having the right products is important, but it will only take you so far. You also need to use the right odor-removing technique. Below we explain the best odor-removing techniques and products that are proven to work. How to get rid of pet odors in the house (cat, dog, ferret, mouse) If the previous tenants had multiple pets, the house or apartment might be full of all sorts of animal smells: cat urine, wet dog, skunk spray – pets can create a kaleidoscope of smells! PRO TIPGeneral pet odor or urine smell? The first step is to figure out what type of odor you’re dealing with, since different odors need to be treated with different products. Eliminating general pet odors Eliminating general pet odors from hard surfaces We recommend using Purodora Disinfectant and Animal Odor Neutralizer. It’s used by pet stores, veterinary clinics, boarding houses, breeders, groomers and animal shelters as a routine cleaner and urine odor neutralizer. Quickly eliminates all animal odorsNeutralizes odors, doesn’t mask themDoes double duty as a household cleaner and disinfectant that’s safe to use on all hard surfaces: wood floors, walls, ceilings, ceramic, cabinets, concrete, etc.Leaves a clean mint scent for several hoursWon’t damage or dull the finish on wood floorsWater-based and has a neutral pHSafe for people, pets and planet How to use Purodora Disinfectant and Animal Odor Neutralizer Clean floors and walls with ½ cup (120 ml) of Purodora Disinfectant and Animal Odor Neutralizer mixed with in 1 gallon (4 L) of water. Eliminating general pet odors in the ambient air A surprising amount of pet odors are actually trapped in the ambient air. Here’s how you can get rid of airborne animal odors in any room of your home. In homes WITH a ventilation system, air exchanger or air conditioning system Spray the diluted Purodora Disinfectant and Animal Odor Neutralizer on the filters of the ventilation or A/C system or air exchanger. Immediately reinstall the filters while still wet with the product and run the system continuously to distribute the product in the ventilation ducts and throughout the house to eliminate unwanted odors.If you can, respray the filters every 2 hours until the odor is completely gone. In homes WITHOUT a ventilation system, air exchanger or air conditioning system Spray the diluted Purodora Disinfectant and Animal Odor Neutralizer on a clean cloth and hang over a table or floor fan.Run the fan for one hour in each room where pet odors are present. Keep the windows open, if possible.You can treat multiple rooms at the same time if you have access to more than one fan. Eliminating pet urine odors Unlike general pet odors, which are often present throughout the house, urine odors are usually localized to specific areas – such as in the room where the litter box was kept. However, if the previous tenants had multiple pets – or if the pet was prone to “accidents”, there may be urine odors in more than one room. The first step is to locate the source of the urine odor. PRO TIP If you’re lucky enough to be able to ask the previous owners about the pets, this will make your odor-destroying job easier. Ask questions like: How long have you had pets? Where was the litter box or pee pad located? Did the pet tend to urinate in a specific spot? Did it ever urinate in other places? If you aren’t able to ask the previous tenants, use your nose. Get down on your hands and knees and start sniffing around the most common areas where pets tend to pee: patio doors, windowsills, near heaters, in bathrooms and the laundry room. You might feel a little silly, but your nose will tell you where the dried-up urine is hiding. Once you have found the source of the odor, use a proven urine odor neutralizer like Purodora Urine Odor Neutralizer. Why use Purodora Urine Odor Neutralizer: Neutralizes urine (and other odors) on contactEven totally destroys odors that have been ingrained for yearsEasy to use; just spray and walk awayWorks on both hard and soft surfaces: wood, ceramic & concrete floors, mattresses, carpets, sofas and moreWon’t stain fabricsLeaves a pleasant citrus scentAlcohol-based product that evaporates quickly to leave surfaces dryWon’t cause boards to swell and warp (like water-based product)Won’t promote the growth of mold How to use Purodora Urine Odor Neutralizer Purodora Urine Odor Neutralizer is used in different ways, depending on the surface being treated. Eliminating pet urine odors from low-pile carpets or concrete floors Spray Purodora Urine Odor Neutralizer directly on the affected surface and allow to air dry. No rinsing required. Eliminating pet urine odors from thick carpets Make a circle around the affected area and enlarge it by 4 to 5 inches to make sure the product reaches all of the urine. Inject Purodora Urine Odor Neutralizer into the base of the carpet with a syringe and needle (it’s easy and it really works!). Start at the outside of the circle and work your way toward the center. Inject roughly 1 tsp (3 to 5 ml) of Purodora Urine Odor Neutralizer at 1-inch intervals to make sure the product reaches all of the urine. PRO TIPWhat to do if Purodora Urine Odor Neutralizer leaves a dark ring on fabrics Alcohol-based products like Urine Odor Neutralizer can sometimes leave a dark ring on certain colored fabrics where the dye has not set properly. No need to worry! Simply rub the fabric with a damp cloth and the stain will disappear immediately Eliminating pet urine odors from wood or ceramic floors When it comes to wood or ceramic floors, it’s not the boards or tiles where the urine odor is coming from, but the porous grout between the tiles and the spaces between and underneath the boards. You’ll need to get Purodora Urine Odor Neutralizer into these small spaces for it to reach and neutralize the urine odor. Use a narrow squirt bottle to get the product into the grout or cracks in the floor with more precision.Wipe off any excess product on the surface of the floor with a damp cloth. Purodora Urine Odor Neutralizer will instantly neutralize the urine odor on contact and then quickly evaporate without damaging the grout or causing the boards to swell and warp. Eliminating stubborn pet urine smell from floors Since gravity also works on urine, it may have sunk deeper into the concrete or carpet. In this case, a second treatment may be required. If the odor is coming from a baseboard trim, be sure to insert Purodora Urine Odor Neutralizer between the floor and the baseboard using a squirt bottle.If the sections between the wood planks are too tight, you can use a syringe and needle instead of a squirt bottle. Eliminating cigarette smell in house Cigarette smoke can infiltrate just about anything in a home: the ventilation system, between walls, carpets, plastics – you name it. But it can be done, especially with the right products. PRO TIP Before tackling the cigarette odor problem in your home, look for any yellowish streaks on the walls. This might be a sign that the previous occupants smoked heavily or for a long time. A simple household cleaner will not be enough to remove these smoke streaks. A degreaser that’s safe to use on walls will do the trick. We recommend two cigarette odor neutralizers, depending on the type of surface being treated. Both are specifically designed to neutralize the cigarette, cigar and cannabis odors. Eliminating cigarette smell from hard surfaces Why use Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Hard Surfaces Guaranteed to work (contains a neutralizer specific to smoke odor from cannabis, cigarettes and cigars)Thoroughly cleans dirt and removes nicotine particles from any hard surfaceWater-based concentrated neutralizerBiodegradable and pH neutralSafe for people, pets & homeNo rinsing requiredLeaves a pleasant pine and citrus scent in the air for several hours after use How to use Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Hard Surfaces Mix ½ cup (120 ml) of Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Hard Surfaces with 1 gallon (4 L) of water and clean all hard surfaces (walls, floors, ceilings, cabinets, etc.) with a clean cloth. Allow to air dry. No need to rinse. Be sure to also clean the filters in your range hood.

Allow to air dry. No rinsing required. PRO TIP If the previous tenants were heavy smokers, or lived in the home for a long time, the nicotine molecule will probably have infiltrated everywhere – even behind the walls. You may need to repeat the treatment over several days. Don’t lose hope. Within a few days, Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics will reach the entire source of the odor and completely eliminate it. Eliminating cigarette smell from the ambient air In homes WITH a ventilation system, air exchanger or air conditioning system Option 1. Clean the filters. For best results, soak them in a bucket for 1 hour in 2 to 8 Tbsp. (30 to 120 ml) of Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Hard Surfaces mixed with 1 gallon (4 L) of water. (Use the lesser amount of product for light cleaning; the larger amount for deep cleaning). Make sure the filters are completely submerged. Option 2. Replace the filters if they are very old or dirty. Spray the new filters with the diluted Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Hard Surfaces. For both options, put the filters immediately back in the system and run it continuously to distribute the product through the system ducts. Re-spray the filters every 2 hours times to completely neutralize the odor in the air ducts and ambient air. PRO TIPAlways use a water-based odor neutralizer to clean filters in a ventilation system, air exchanger or air conditioning system Using an alcohol-based odor neutralizer could pose a fire risk if the filters are located close to the system’s motor. Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Hard Surfaces is water-based, so there’s no risk of fire. In homes WITHOUT a ventilation system, air exchanger or air conditioning system Spray Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics on a clean cloth and hang it over a fan. Run the fan continuously for one hour in the room. Keep the windows open, if possible.Repeat in each room that smells of smoke. You can treat multiple rooms at the same time if you have access to more than one fan. Eliminating damp and musty smells from the house If the house has been empty or sealed up for a while, it may have acquired a musty smell. Other homes can develop a damp smell – particularly in the basement, the garage or the bathroom. To eliminate this unpleasant smell, we recommend cleaning and treating the air with Purodora Damp Odor Neutralizer. It effectively eliminates all musty and damp odors. Why use Purodora Damp Odor Neutralizer Guaranteed to workCompletely eliminates damp odors in hard surfaces (concrete, wood, walls or ceilings)Easy-to-use product, no rinsing requiredAlso great for use on carpetsSafe for people, pets & homeLeaves a pleasant herbs & peach scent in the air for several hours after use How to use Purodora Damp Odor Neutralizer Step 1: Find out what’s causing the odor If you’re noticing a damp smell in your home, the very first thing you should do is try to identify and locate the source of the smell as it may be hiding a larger problem that will need to be fixed. Otherwise, the damp smell will just keep returning. PRO TIP If you can’t pinpoint the exact source of the problem, start by treating the air in your home. It might make it easier to identify where the smell is coming from. Eliminating damp and musty smells from hard surfaces Dilute ½ cup (120 ml) of Purodora Damp Odor Neutralizer in 1 gallon (4 L) of warm water and clean all hard surfaces (floors, cabinets, walls). Eliminating damp and musty smells from raw wood, plywood and metal Spray the diluted Purodora Damp Odor Neutralizer directly on the surface and allow to work. Eliminating damp and musty smells from the ambient air In homes WITH a ventilation system, air exchanger or air conditioning system Spray the new filters with the diluted Purodora Damp Odor Neutralizer. Put the filters back in the system while still wet with the product and run it continuously to distribute the product through the system ducts. Re-spray the filters every 2 hours times to completely neutralize the odor in the air ducts and ambient air. In homes WITHOUT a ventilation system, air exchanger or air conditioning system Spray the diluted Purodora Damp Odor Neutralizer on a clean cloth and hang it over a fan. Run the fan continuously for one hour in the room. If possible, keep the windows open.Repeat in each room with a damp or musty smell. You can treat multiple rooms at the same time if you have access to more than one fan. What to do if you still smell the odor after a couple of treatments Don’t worry. Just be patient and keep at it. It can take up to several days to completely eliminate the smell of smoke from a home – especially if the cigarette smell has been around for a long time. Don’t get discouraged. If 75% of the smell is gone within a few days, it means the treatment is working, but that there are still some nicotine particles left to neutralize. Keep treating the surfaces or rooms. Eventually you will eliminate 100% of the cigarette smell from your home, once and for all.

How to Get Rid of Cat Pee Smell in Litter Box
Does your house smell of cat litter? Or worse – ammonia? No need to throw out your cat’s litter box; just eliminate the odor! Here’s how to finally get rid of that cat pee smell in 3 easy steps. Best of all, this method is safe for you and your cat. Read on. You’ll be breathing easy in no time. How to get rid of cat pee smell in litter tray – step-by-step instructions You can clean your cat’s litter box all you want, but if you don’t use a product that can neutralize the cat pee odor that has seeped into the plastic, that awful smell will just return. Here’s how you can stop your litter box from smelling up the house – completely and safely – in 3 easy steps: Step 1: Empty the litter box (below we also offer tips on how to stop cat litter from smelling of urine). Step 2: Use the right odor remover. The best product to get rid of cat pee smell is Purodora Litter Box Odor Neutralizer. It’s safe for your cat and works miracles on litter boxes. Step 3: Spray the inside of the tray with Purodora Litter Box Odor Neutralizer. Wait 10 minutes so that the product can infiltrate the plastic’s pores and eliminate the deep-set odors, then rinse with clean water. And that’s it! You can now take a deep breath without wincing! How often should I replace my cat’s litter box? Litter boxes aren’t made to last forever and should be changed every 1 to 2 years. To avoid premature wear, avoid cleaning the box with regular household products. They can degrade the plastic and actually make the cat urine smell worse. Some products can also be unsafe or unpleasant for cats. Tips for changing your cat’s litter box Keep the following in mind when buying a new litter box for your cat: Make sure it’s big enough. The tray should be big enough to accommodate the equivalent of 3 cats at the same time.Forget the cover. Cats feel more secure in an uncovered litter box because it lets them easily survey their surroundings.Keep it in the same spot. Cats are creatures of habit. If you suddenly change the location of its litter box, it might get upset and decide not to use it anymore. If you have to change the location, move the box gradually. Oh-oh – your cat rejected its new litter box and peed on the floor? Here’s how to get cat or dog pee smell out of any floor surface – including porous concrete. How to stop cat litter from smelling of cat urine Now that you’ve gotten rid of the cat pee smell from the litter box, there are a few things you can do to prevent the cat litter from smelling up your house in the future: Use the right amount of cat litter. Clean the litter box every day.Replace the litter regularly (see the product label for recommendations). Am I using too much cat litter? Not using enough? The rule of thumb is 2 to 2.5 inches (5 to 7 cm) of cat litter per tray. You want the litter to be deep enough so that the cat can scratch without hitting the bottom of the tray. Risk of not using enough cat litter The urine will reach the bottom of the tray and penetrate the pores of the plastic. Eventually, the ammonia smell will return. The cat’s claws will also reach the bottom of the tray and damage the plastic. The urine will seep into the grooves, making the cat urine smell even harder to remove. Risk of using too much cat litter The cat will dig around more than necessary, kicking litter out of the box and making a mess. It might also bury the poop where you might not be able to find it. But your cat will certainly notice and may decide to stop using the box altogether. Get rid of any odor problem We care about your comfort and safety – and that of your pets.

Is there anything better than opening up the cottage or RV for another summer season? It’s sheer bliss… except for that danged musty or stuffy smell after several months of disuse. Breathe easy. You don't have to live with that damp, humid smell any longer. Here are some proven ways to get your cottage or RV smelling summer-fresh in no time. Here’s what you do.Step 1: Locate the source of the musty smell To get rid of any unwanted odor, the first step is always to figure out what's causing it. Otherwise, the smell will probably keep coming back. And keep in mind that different causes may require different fixes. Musty smells can develop for all sorts of reasons in a cottage or RV. It could be a new water leak you haven’t yet discovered, or some past water damage that wasn’t fully addressed. Or perhaps that musty or stuffy smell is simply due to the fact that your cottage or RV has closed up for several months.Step 2: Fix the source of the musty smell Once you've identified the source the smell, fix the problem so that the smell won't keep coming back. Depending on the issue, you may need to remove some materials to prevent bacteria from spreading. You'll also need to treat all absorbent surfaces that smell musty – such as rough/untreated wood, metal, plywood, walls, floors, ceilings, cabinets, fabrics, carpets, furniture and even the ambient air (we explain how below). PRO TIP Having trouble pinpointing the exact source of the musty smell? Start by treating the ambient air in the room. It will make locating the odor easier.Step 3: Get rid of the lingering musty smell Now that you’ve fixed the problem, getting rid of the lingering musty smell will be easy – provided you use the right product. Keep in mind that most products sold in stores simply mask or deodorize odors. Or worse: they add another scent on top of the odor, creating a nauseating blend. Sure, you might forget about the original odor for a day or two, but eventually, it will become noticeable again. To completely eliminate stubborn odors for good, you need a product that contains an odor neutralizer that’s specific to the molecule behind the odor.Why use Purodora Lab products?

Comment éliminer une mauvaise odeur dans un congélateur ou un frigo?
Vous voulez entreposer de bons petits plats dans votre congélateur, mais une mauvaise odeur s’en dégage? Vous avez oublié un restant de viande dans votre frigo et la mauvaise odeur s’est répandue partout à l’intérieur? Pour remédier aux recettes maison qui ne fonctionnent pas toujours, utilisez les produits Purodora Lab! Nos produits contiennent des neutralisants d’odeurs conçus spécifiquement pour éliminer la molécule qui crée la mauvaise odeur. Problème d'odeurs dans le congélateur ou le frigo Même si vous jetez les aliments périmés et que vous lavez votre réfrigérateur ou votre congélateur, il se peut que la mauvaise odeur soit encore présente. Ceci est dû au fait que les congélateurs et les réfrigérateurs sont faits de plastique. Les molécules de mauvaises odeurs s’incrustent donc dans les pores du plastique et, bien que vous nettoyiez l’appareil, l’odeur sera toujours présente si vous n’utilisez pas les bons produits. La première étape lorsque vous découvrez une mauvaise odeur dans votre congélateur ou votre réfrigérateur est d’enlever toute la nourriture ainsi que les contenants qui sont dans l’appareil (il faut que celui-ci soit complètement vide). Prenez soin de jeter les aliments périmés qui pourraient dégager une mauvaise odeur. Par la suite, débranchez le congélateur ou le réfrigérateur pour effectuer la neutralisation d’odeur. Méthode pour enlever les odeurs dans un frigo ou un congélateur Commencez le traitement en vaporisant le Neutralisant d'odeurs de déchets à l’intérieur de l’appareil. Laissez agir durant 15 minutes et essuyer avec un linge propre. Le Neutralisant d'odeurs de déchets est un nettoyant prêt à utiliser qui contient un neutralisant d’odeur efficace contre les odeurs de viande avariée.Mélangez ensuite un bouchon d’eau de javel dans une demi-chaudière d’eau tiède et rincez 1 à 2 fois l’intérieur de l’appareil pour retirer l'odeur du neutralisant contenu dans le Neutralisant d'odeurs de déchets. Le but de cette étape est que nous ne voulons pas laisser une odeur qui pourrait être absorbée par les aliments. Si l'odeur est très forte et qu'elle perdure depuis longtemps, rincez 2 à 3 fois l’intérieur de l’appareil. Finissez en essuyant l’appareil avec un linge propre et mettez l’appareil en marche. L’odeur de viande avariée aura complètement disparu! Nous avons à cœur la satisfaction de nos clients. Si vous avez des questions concernant nos produits, n’hésitez surtout pas à nous contacter.

Rincez à l’eau potable dans certaines situationsPour les garderies, milieux scolaires, hospitaliers et domestiques, un rinçage à l’eau potable est recommandé pour les surfaces dures, non poreuses ou les objets qui peuvent entrer en contact direct avec des enfants en âge d’exploration buccale. On recommande également un rinçage à l’eau potable pour les surfaces dures, non poreuses ou les objets qui peuvent entrer en contact direct avec des aliments, tels que les comptoirs, ustensiles pour boire et manger, et dispositifs de transformation alimentaire. Évitez tout contact avec les aliments. Conseils généraux pour une bonne désinfection Les surfaces les plus fréquemment touchées sont les plus susceptibles d’être contaminées. De ce fait, vous devez leur porter une attention particulière en assurant une désinfection fréquente et efficace. Par exemple, d’après le Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), les surfaces fréquemment touchées dans les lieux publics intérieurs devraient être nettoyées et désinfectées au moins une fois par jour, et plus si possible. Dans les ménages avec enfants, les jouets et objets fréquemment manipulés devraient eux aussi être nettoyés et désinfectés tous les jours.Que vous désinfectiez des surfaces à la maison, dans un commerce ou dans un établissement de services essentiels, identifiez les surfaces et objets fréquemment touchés afin d’assurer un suivi rigoureux.

De ce fait, il importe d’utiliser un produit désinfectant, et non seulement un produit nettoyant. Votre désinfectant est-il efficace contre la Covid-19? Santé Canada reconnaît l’efficacité de plusieurs désinfectants disponibles sur le marché. Afin d’informer la population sur les produits pouvant être utilisés pour lutter contre la propagation du Coronavirus (Covid-19), Santé Canada a publié une liste de désinfectants pour surfaces dures certifiés. Les produits qui s’y trouvent détiennent un numéro d’identification DIN à 8 chiffres. Ce numéro confirme que votre désinfectant est approuvé et sécuritaire pour un usage au Canada. Par exemple, le DIN du Désinfectant pour surfaces dures et non poreuses et neutralisant d'odeurs d'animaux de Purodora Lab est le 02505525, vous le trouverez donc dans la liste! Finalement, pour réussir à bien désinfecter les surfaces dures et non poreuses, il faut avant tout choisir un bon produit désinfectant, lire les instructions du fabricant, puis appliquer les étapes d’utilisation recommandées selon le contexte qui s’applique. En suivant ces quelques conseils, vous obtiendrez un environnement propre et sécuritaire, évitant la propagation des virus!Sources https://www.inspq.qc.ca/publications/3054-nettoyage-desinfection-surfaces-covid19 https://www.canada.ca/fr/sante-canada/services/medicaments-produits-sante/desinfectants/covid-19.html https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/how-covid-spreads.html

Get smoke smell out of car
Driving in a car that smells of cigarette smoke is no joyride. Nor is it an easy sell if you ever want to trade it in. This How-To Guide explains how to get rid of tobacco odors from any surface in your vehicle so that you can breathe easy and boost its resale value. These techniques work for all types of tobacco odors, including cigars and cannabis. In this guide: What’s the best cigarette smell remover: Neutralizer or deodorizer?How odor neutralizers workThe right technique for removing cigarette smell in cars Removing cigarette smell from car fabricsGetting rid of cigarette smell from plastic surfaces in carEliminating cigarette smell in the car’s ventilation systemWhat to do if your car still smells of cigarette smoke after a few treatmentsGetting more bang for your buck with multi-purpose odor destroyersWhere to find Purodora products Pro Tip Why eliminating cigarette smells in a car is so darn difficultCigarette odors are among the most persistent and difficult odors to remove. That’s because smoke can infiltrate just about anything and anywhere – the ventilation system, the carpets, the seats, the plastic, the seatbelts – you name it. We recommend against using an odor bomb or ozone generator, which will only mask the smell and can potentially create a very unpleasant mix of odors. Better to use the right products and methods. That way, you’ll be guaranteed to eliminate the smell of tobacco entirely from your car without damaging the surfaces. What’s the best cigarette smell remover: Neutralizer or deodorizer? The particle that gives off that strong, lingering cigarette smell (nicotine) can seep into any hard or absorbent surface in your vehicle. When it comes to eliminating any unwanted smell – tobacco or otherwise – you have to locate the source of the odor and neutralize it. Unfortunately, few products sold in stores are odor neutralizers; they simply mask or deodorize the smell. Some merely create an unpleasant mix of odors that can actually make the situation worse. Even if these products do work for a while, the cigarette smell will eventually return. To completely eliminate stubborn cigarette odors for good, you need a product containing an odor neutralizer that’s specific to the nicotine molecule creating the odor. Purodora products use advanced odor-neutralizing technology to eliminate even the most stubborn odors on contact (including products that eliminate skunk smell). How odor neutralizers work Purodora odor neutralizers quickly and permanently to eliminate all types of smoke odor problems, including cigar and cannabis. They can even eliminate odors that have been around for years. As soon as the product comes into contact with the source of the odor, it molecularly binds to it to neutralize the odor. The odor instantly disappears. The only smell Purodora products leave behind is a fresh, pleasant scent. See the science behind this advanced odor neutralizing technology and why Purodora products are guaranteed to work! Pro Tip For best results, make sure the odor neutralizer reaches ALL of the cigarette odor To eliminate the unwanted smell completely and permanently, odor neutralizers need to come into contact with the entire source of the odor. For deeply embedded odors, a few treatments may be needed for the product to penetrate deep enough to reach all of the odor-causing molecules and neutralize them completely. The right technique for removing cigarette smell in cars Having the right products is important, but it will only take you so far. You also need to use the right odor-removing technique. Below we explain the best odor-removing techniques and products that are proven to work. Pro Tip When we talk about the intensity of a cigarette odor, this refers to things like: how long the smoke smell has been embedded in the surface, the number of cigarettes smoked in the car each day and the number of smokers in the car. It also includes, of course, the type of cigarettes or cigars smoked. The more intense the odor, the more treatments will be required to completely eliminate the cigarette smell from the car. Removing cigarette smell from car fabrics When treating a vehicle for cigarette smell odors, the first step is to remove the smell that has become embedded in the fabrics, such as the seats, seatbelts and carpets. Here’s how: Required materials: Couple of clean cloths, syringe and needleRecommended product: Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics Why use Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics Guaranteed to work (contains a neutralizer specific to smoke odor from cannabis, cigarettes and cigars)Completely eliminates smoke odors in fabrics and other soft surfacesEasy-to-use: no diluting or rinsing requiredAlcohol-based: works on contact and then quickly evaporates to eliminate the risk of fabrics mildewingWon’t stain fabricsAlso great for use on fabrics and upholstered furniture in the homeSafe for people, pets & planetLeaves a pleasant lemon scent in the air for several hours after use Eliminating cigarette smell on seatbelts Simply spray Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics directly on all parts of the seatbelt smelling of cigarette odor and allow to work.

Inject 3 to 5 ml of product at 1-inch intervals to reach all of the cigarette odor. Finish by spraying the entire surface of the seat and backrest with Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics. Allow product to work. No rinsing or drying required. Pro Tip Keep in mind that to eliminate an odor permanently, you have to treat the source of the odor. Cigarette smoke can penetrate deep into the thick cushions of car seats and backrests. A simple spray on the outer fabric is rarely enough to completely remove strong cigarette smells. Only by injecting it can the product come into contact with the entire source of the odor and neutralize it. Eliminating cigarette smell in genuine leather car seats Always proceed with caution when treating genuine leather Before using any product on genuine leather, it’s best to always test a non-visible area to ensure it doesn’t discolor. Never spray products directly onto leather. Instead, apply with a clean cloth and rub gently. Also remember to always remove the product after the indicated time with a clean, barely damp cloth. Keep in mind that leather absorbs odors more deeply than fabric, so several treatments may be needed. To eliminate mild cigarette odors in leather seats: Spray Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics on a clean cloth and gently wipe the seats. Allow product to work for 15 minutes.Remove with a clean, damp cloth. To eliminate strong cigarette odors in leather seats: Use a syringe and needle to inject Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics. (To avoid damaging the leather, inject the product at the seams.

Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics is alcohol based and will evaporate quickly without causing carpets to mildew.

Apply to surface with a clean cloth and scrub. Allow surface to air dry; no rinsing required. Eliminating cigarette smell in the car’s ventilation system When trying to eliminate the smell of cigarettes in a vehicle, many people will focus on the seats and carpets, but overlook the ventilation system. That’s a shame because the plastic ducts can really absorb the strong smell of cigarettes. Spray Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics on the carpets in front of the driver and passenger seats. Turn on the car’s heat or air conditioning and run at for 2-3 minutes. Allow the product to work. No need to rinse. What to do if your car still smells of cigarette smoke after a few treatments Don’t worry. Just be patient and keep at it. It can sometimes take several treatments to get rid of cigarette smells from a vehicle completely – especially if the smell has been around for a long time. Don’t get discouraged. If 75% of the smell is gone within a few days, it means the treatment is working, but that there are still some smelly nicotine particles left to neutralize. Keep treating the surfaces. Eventually you will eliminate 100% of the cigarette smell from your car or truck – for good.

Get Rid of Damp Smell in House
All homes need a certain amount of humidity to be healthy. It’s when the humidity level gets too high for too long that things get smelly. Here are 7 expert tips for eliminating that unwanted damp smell in basements, bathrooms and laundry rooms – as well as on clothes, sofas, carpets and even in ventilation systems! And see which odor removal products are safe for you and your family. Tip 1: Identify the source of the damp smell If you’re noticing a damp smell in your home, the very first thing you should do is try to identify and correct the source of the problem as quickly as possible. Until you do, the damp smell will just keep returning. Be on the lookout for tell-tale signs such as damp walls and floors, condensation in windows, mold in corners or white streaks on concrete. These can all be indications of a moisture problem that needs fixing. While you’re inspecting your home, keep the following in mind: Have you ever had a water infiltration problem?Are there any cracks in the foundation or leaky windows?Is the house standing on mostly loamy soil?Is the plumbing in good condition? Did the sewer ever back up?Is the distance between the gutters and the home to regulation? Once you’ve identified and corrected the source of your humidity problem, you can begin treating the affected surfaces with the right odor removal products. The good news is that you only need two products. Tip 2: Remove stale odors from closets and clothing First, check the closet for mildew and signs of water damage. If you find any signs, you’ll obviously need to address this bigger issue. If you don’t see any traces of mold or water infiltration, clean your closet with Purodora Damp Odor Neutralizer – a cleaner and odor neutralizer specifically formulated for musty and damp odors. Check the clothes as well, since they can sometimes turn musty if left untouched in closets for a long time. To neutralize musty smell on clothes, spray Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics directly on clothes and allow to air dry. No need to rinse. (Don’t be fooled by the name; Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics also does a great job of eliminating musty odors on all fabrics.) Tip 3: Remove damp smell from floors and walls If a room in your house or apartment smells damp, treating the walls and floors can often help. Dilute one part of Purodora Damp Odor Neutralizer in five parts of water and wash the floors and walls. Allow to air dry. No need to rinse. Tip 4: Neutralize the damp smell in the ventilation system The ducts in a ventilation system or air exchanger can sometimes develop unpleasant odors that eventually spread throughout the home. Dilute ½ cup (120 ml) of Purodora Damp Odor Neutralizer in 1 gallon (4 L) and spray the ventilation or air exchanger filters. Then turn on the ventilation system or the air conditioner for one hour. You can repeat this treatment on a regular basis to keep the inside of your home smelling clean and fresh. Tip 5: Remove the damp smell in carpets If you have a carpet in a room with an odor problem, chances are it has absorbed the smell, too. Mix ½ cup (120 ml) of Purodora Damp Odor Neutralizer in 1 gallon (4 L) and add to a carpet cleaner. Clean the carpet with the machine and use fans to dry. (Before cleaning the carpet, we recommend you test a non-visible area first to ensure the product won’t discolor the carpet.) Tip 6: Get rid of damp odor on upholstered furniture If you have upholstered furniture in a damp basement or room, it will probably develop a musty smell, too. Spray Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Fabrics directly on the fabric. Press down on the cushions with your hand to help the product penetrate deeply. Let the product work and then air dry. If the musty smell has seeped really deep into the cushions, inject the product with a syringe and needle directly into the cushions. It may sound strange, but it really works! Did you know?

But with the right products and methods – and a little patience – it can be done. Below we explain how to eliminate the smell of tobacco from virtually any hard or soft surface in your home, even the ambient air. What’s the best cigarette smell remover: Neutralizer or deodorizer? The particle that gives off that strong, lingering cigarette smell (nicotine) can seep into any hard or absorbent surface such as walls, floors, ceilings, cabinets, fabrics and even the air. When it comes to eliminating any unwanted smell – tobacco or otherwise – you have to locate the source of the odor and neutralize it. Unfortunately, few products sold in stores are odor neutralizers; they simply mask or deodorize the smell. Some merely create an unpleasant mix of odors that can actually make the situation worse. Even if these products do work for a while, the cigarette smell will eventually return. To completely eliminate stubborn cigarette odors permanently, you need a product containing an odor neutralizer that’s specific to the nicotine molecule creating the odor. Purodora products use advanced odor-neutralizing technology to eliminate even the most stubborn odors on contact (including products that eliminate skunk smell). How odor neutralizers work Purodora odor neutralizers quickly eliminate all types of smoke odor problems, including cigar and cannabis. They eliminate odors completely, quickly and permanently – even if the odor has been around for months or years. As soon as the product comes into contact with the source of the odor, it molecularly binds to it to neutralize the odor. The odor instantly disappears. The only smell that’s left behind is a light pleasant scent. See the science behind this advanced odor neutralizing technology and why Purodora products are guaranteed to work! Pro Tip The key is to make sure the odor neutralizer reaches ALL of the cigarette odor To eliminate the smell completely and permanently, odor neutralizers must come into contact with the entire source of the odor. For deeply embedded odors, a few treatments may be needed for the product to reach and destroy cigarette odors completely. The right technique for removing cigarette smell in the house Having the right products is important, but they will only take you so far. For best results, you also need to use the right technique. Below are the best odor-removing techniques and products that are proven to work. Pro Tip Before tackling the cigarette odor problem in your home, look for any yellowish streaks on the walls. This might be a sign that the previous occupants smoked heavily and for a long time. A simple household cleaner may not be enough to remove these smoke streaks from walls. A degreaser will be required. Any degreaser that’s safe to use on walls should do the trick.

Pro Tip When we talk about the intensity of a cigarette odor, this refers to things like: how long the smoke smell has been accumulating in surfaces, the number of cigarettes smoked in the house each day and the number of smokers in the house. It also includes, of course, the type of cigarettes or cigars smoked.

Pro Tip If the previous tenants were heavy smokers, or lived in the home for a long time, the nicotine molecule will probably have infiltrated everywhere – even behind the walls. You may need to repeat the treatment over several days. Don’t lose hope. Within a few days, Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Hard Surfaces will reach the entire source of the odor and completely eliminate it. Eliminating cigarette odors in a house WITH a ventilation system, air exchanger or air conditioning system Required materials: Spray bottle, large bucket Recommended product: Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Hard Surfaces How to use Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Hard Surfaces First, decide if the filters are worth saving and cleaning.

If you decide to get new filters: Spray the new filters with 1 to ½ cup (30 to 120 ml) of Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Hard Surfaces diluted in 1 gallon (4 L) of water. Install filters while still wet with product and run the system continuously to distribute the product through the system ducts. Re-spray the filters several times to completely neutralize the odor in the air ducts and ambient air. If you decide to clean your existing filters: Soak the dirty filters in a bucket for 1 hour in 2 Tbsp to ½ cup (30 to 120 ml) of Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Hard Surfaces diluted in 1 gallon (4 L) of water. Make sure the filters are completely submerged. Pro Tip Always use a water-based odor neutralizer to clean filters in a ventilation system, air exchanger or air conditioning system Using an alcohol-based odor neutralizer could pose a fire risk if the filters are located close to the system’s motor. Purodora Smoke Odor Neutralizer for Hard Surfaces is water-based, so there’s no risk of fire.
