Effective Air Oderizers ??

What stinks so much you need to use these things?

The human mind learns to ignore things like strong smells once you get used to it, perhaps you have desensitized yourself to air fresheners. ANything with scent will need to be replenished often. Manufacturers depend on these things to sell more air fresheners.

To save money try growing some aromatic herbs in your garden . Rosemary grows fast and is very powerful for example

I just bought a packet of that "volcanic rock" stuff. You put it in a return vent and it's supposed to get rid of odor. It has no scent of it's own. I figured when I bought it that it'd be $10 down the toilet but it appears to be working. Maybe it's just a placebo effect.

Open the windows and change your clothes

An open window does wonders. TB

Oderizer? You want to stink up your house?

So true; I call this the "old lady" syndrome. I've been in close proximity to old ladies whos perfume was so strong I almost puked, but I'm sure they could hardly smell it anymore so they douse themselves in it.

Not a bath too.

OH MAN!!!!

good suggestions in this thread: open window; grow aromatic herbs

devices which put scents out only mask the odor, go to the source and stop it there

a good electric hepa air filter unit should work if it persists (or central air or heat unit)

Take those stanky sweat socks away from your central air return inlet and you won't need those artificial stink concealers.

HEPA will get rid or dust but you need charcoal filter to get rid of most smells. Many filters have both.

Give me a 12 pak, a pot-o-chili, extra spicy, and a spot on your sofa, I'll stink up your house all you want. Hell, I'll even take off my shoes. You'll be puking in no time.

Ozone generator.

Not one of those pissant Sonic Air or electrostatic toys - get one that can, at maximum setting, put out 900ug/hour.

You can keep dead bodies virtually unnoticed. Forever.

On a more practical level, our office consists only of heavy smokers. This device protects us from second-hand smoke!

Not when it's 20 degrees out.

More likely it's killing you faster, but whatever makes you happy.

If your house needs to be deodorized, you should figure out why, and deal with the actual problem, not mask it with more chemicals.

Goedjn do yourself a favor and learn about Epa Ozone exposure limits. The amount you recommend is a good way to guarantee future lung problems

Of course, you wouldn't want to leave these going at night, or when you're not there, but I prefer the small simmering pot pourri burners that use tea-light candles. Most artificial scents have elements that bother my nose, so I add a few whole cloves, a chunk of stick cinnamon and several drops of food-grade lemon oil and some orange extract to the water.
