I have discovered a wonderful product to help fight ferret and cat odors.
It's called Gonzo Pet Odor Eliminator. It comes in a mesh bag that you
leave intact and place near litter boxes or other sources of offensive
odors. [ It's made of volcanic minerals in the net and this is the way
they say it works: the volcanic minerals have a negative charge. the odors
have a positive charge. the volcanic minerals act like a magnet to attract
and hold the unpleasant odors.]
I don't know if this is really what happens, but I do know it has made a
HUGE improvement in the ferrety atmosphere at my house. I put the bag on
the floor by the litter box between the cage and the wall. I try to
remember to put it on top of the cage when my guys are out, but sometimes
I forget. To my knowlege, they haven't messed with it (it's non-toxic).
This thing is supposed to last for YEARS! Every 8 mos or so, you leave
the net bag outdoors in the direct sunlight for 6 hrs and it restores the
effectiveness of the volcanic mineral. I also put one on top of the water
heater in the laundry room (home of 2 cat litter boxes). One bag is
effective in a room of up to 20 x 30 ft. I bought mine at the WestPoint
Stevens Outlet in Burlington and they were about $8 each. They do have a
web page though, www.gonzocorp.com, and you can order it from them, but it
is more expensive.
*I promise I'm not selling these myself or getting any kick-backs. I am
just so delighted with them I wanted to share it with other folks who deal
with the same problem from these naturally odiferous sweeties!
Enjoying sweeter air,
