Ok,
So I bought a house and the previous owners had cats. The laundry room was where they kept the litterbox and that damn closet smells like cats. We've tried to clean it multiple times but that smell just fucking lingers on.

Does anyone have any recommendations on products to use or something that I can ignite in there to eliminate the smell of pussy piss and shit? (note: I dont have any animals, and I really dont understand how the laundry room STILL smells after all the cleaning attempts we've done in there....)

Oh TWW, yo' help would be much appreciated....

spraying vinegar helps neutralize bad smells, and I'd try baking soda too.

(separately )

why so semi-serious?

and/or

Put down new flooring. If it's vinyl you can buy pieces at Real Deal on S. Saunders or at Lowe's pretty cheap. Before you put the floor down paint Kilz on the subfloor.

random thought

isnt vinegar+baking soda the shit that you put in like middle school science fair volcanos?


we've used probably around $50 worth of random cleaning supplies in there ranging form ajax to clorox...we've also exploded a bottle of febreeze and sacrificed a baby lamb.

Depending on how bad it is, and how much the floors have been soaked with catpiss, you may need to douse everything with Nature's Miracle.

They have a cat formula that really does work. Get it at petsmart.

When I lived with elise for a bit, her cats pissed on my bed every goddamn day. So I was doing lots of laundry

I'm also not so diligent about changing my cats litter box, so sometimes she pees on my clothes. ~5washes/soaks with vinegar and tide, vs 1 wash with nature's miracle.

She's peed on carpet, too, and nature's miracle doesn't get the smell out fully, but we also didn't follow the directions...just squirted some on and forgot about it
