Closet Smells Like Cat Litter

RE: Closet Smells Like Cat Litter Post By gloria (Guest Post) (10/22/2007) The best way to rid of this smell is to use orange cleaner like tko works great RE: Closet Smells Like Cat Litter Post by maggiemay (22) | (06/30/2006) Contact I am amazed at how great charcoal briquettes work for situations like this. Just make sure they are the plain ones without the firestarter added to it. Overnight the odor should be gone. Just put a small container or bowl inside your closet with some of the charcoal briguettes in it. Good luck!

One bottle would provide you with many spray bottles worth and you can spray it on anything! It has a baby powder scent!

I washed it all good (even basket) with vinegar then poured fresh coffee grounds (right from the container) onto the floor, set the basket on top and sprinkled a few more coffee grounds into the basket, let it set about a week and the smell completely disappeared. The cat is 17 and the smell was bad. RE: Closet Smells Like Cat Litter Post by PICO (204) | (06/29/2006) Contact Try charcoal briquets, (the ones for bbq). Just put them in the closet and they will absorb the odor. RE: Closet Smells Like Cat Litter Post by Grandma Margie (126) | (06/29/2006) Contact If the coffee grounds don't do the trick you will probably have to seal all closet surfaces with some sort of paint. It 's possible that the "stink" has been absorbed by all the surfaces in the closet. It might even require a certain type of paint as I'm thinking latex wall paint probably won't do the job. Maybe someone else has information on this! Editor's Note: Get some shellac or Kilz to seal the closet before painting it. That will seal off any smell that may have been absorbed. RE: Closet Smells Like Cat Litter Post by Jilson (81) | (06/28/2006) Contact Put some unused coffee grounds in some shallow dishes and put them in the closet and close the door. (If there is a good crack under the door, roll a towel and lay it there to decrease air circulation.) You could also sprinkle baking soda on the carpet and leave it there during the process. After a few days, take the coffee out, vacuum, and sniff. You can always put the coffee back for a few days. RE: Closet Smells Like Cat Litter Post by Ree 127 (49) | (06/28/2006) Contact Try spraying white vinegar on the carpeting, and close the door overnight. Next day, open to allow the vinegar to air out. I will likely remove at least some of the smell. good luck!
