My husband and I moved in to a house that the previous owner had two cats that never made it to the litter box in the twenty years he lived here. (Well that's what it seemed like...) The urine smell we horrible and it was soaked in to the dry wall. We removed the tiles, drywall and cabinets. The smell stayed. We tried all the different "urine - gone" products, smell stayed. Finally we bought a damp rid, berry scented, jar and placed it in the general area... it lasted for a month, but the smell left. I'm not sure why it worked or if it was just a fluke, but the smell is gone. You can get Damp rid from any store, but we bought it from Home depot and it was the "air freshener" one, not the regular (though both might work??)
Good luck!!!
Interesting! We use the normal Damp Rid on the boat in the cabin...Works great in collecting the humidity. Never really thought of it absorbing smells too. Will have to give it a try! Thanks for the tip.
Great ideas everyone. I'll try them all until I find one that helps. I noticed the smell is a lot worse when it's humid so maybe that damp rid would do the trick.
