This carpet deodorizer utilizes a high-grade Sodium Bicarbonate base to provide physical adsorption of odors. The powder is milled to a specific mesh size, which allows it to make maximum contact with carpet fibers while remaining large enough to be easily captured by vacuum systems. This design helps prevent the clogging of HEPA filters, which is a common issue with finer, talc-based powders.
The inclusion of lemon and eucalyptus essential oils provides a natural scent profile. Because these are volatile organic compounds, the aroma is designed to be fresh but temporary, typically dissipating within a few hours. This makes it an appropriate choice for home organizers who prefer a "clean label" approach over long-lasting synthetic fragrances that can linger for days.
Usage Note: For deep-seated pet odors, tests show that brushing the powder into the fibers with a carpet rake and allowing it to sit for 15 minutes significantly improves the neutralisation of organic proteins.
The 31 oz shaker canister is designed for easy distribution across approximately 800 to 1,000 square feet. To maintain the flow of the powder, it is best to store the container in a dry pantry, as the shaker top can become difficult to use in high-humidity environments.
For more localized odor control in small, enclosed areas like gym lockers or laundry bins, consider using Arm & Hammer Odor Busterz as a portable solution.
