Natures Miracle no long has an unscented forumla apparently. They have so many "formulas", which are probably all the same, its hard to tell. (Do ferrets really need a special formula?)
Anyway I can't stand the overpowering smell of the new and improved and need a new brand.
Any tried and true recommendations for something that is like Natures Miracle? I have a cat.
Here's a couple of suggestions that I found online:
Mix a water and vinegar solution. Vinegar is great for killing bacteria. This mixture is perfect for both old and new stains. Try 1 1/2 cups of warm water and a 1/2 cup of vinegar. Pour this concoction over the stain and soak for about 3 to 5 minutes. Note: vinegar is not good for marble or stone.
There's nothing like good all-purpose baking soda. After the water and vinegar solution is dry, sprinkle the area with baking soda. How much is enough? A lot.
Mix 3/4 cup of three percent hydrogen peroxide (you know you have some under your bathroom sink) with 1 teaspoon of dish detergent. Sprinkle this solution over the baking soda and test a small spot. You need to do this because sometimes peroxide can discolor or bleach fabrics (source). Work the baking soda into the fabric or carpet.
I appreciate it but I really want to just buy something similar. Natures Miracle is listed as having bio enzymes, oxygen boosters and alchohol plus a surfactant.
We use a product called "Kids and Pets" that is available at Wal Mart. It comes in a tall white plastic bottle (bright yellow sticker label) with a squirt top. It works really well and there's no scent or toxic feel to it. Not expensive, which is an added bonus. Not sure if it is still available because one bottle has lasted us for quite a long time, but it is worth checking. I should check next time I go and pick up an extra one if they have it.
Best wishes in finding the product that works best for you!
OdoBan, available at Home Depot. Comes in a 1-gal bottle for $9.95. Can use straight or dilute. Disinfected, too. Many vets/kennels use it.
