Re: [AlpacaTalk] urine smell

 

Vinegar can cut the ammonia smell. We've used lime in the past, and it's ok, but vinegar is better. Also stall dry or other products like that are good. Dry Den is a wood pellet product with Zeolite, which works pretty well. It does two things. The wood absorbs the moisture, and the Zeolite neutralizes the ammonia. Also, it's pretty inexpensive!

Good luck!

hi all - my neighbor is complaining about the smell of my girls' urine, and of course i've done everything i can think of to discourage the girls from using that spot right beside the neighbor's fence but they have a mind of their own when it comes to where they pee etc

 

the neighbor is trying to sell their house (and boy i wish they would) and complain the smell is putting off perspective buyers - i don't have any grass left so it is basically a sand lot now - does anyone have any suggestions to make urine smell like roses?

 

i rake and shovel the poop, pack it away in the wheelbarrow and cover the pile with a tarp but nothing i've tried with the urine seems to make a difference, and of course they are continually peeing there.

 

i really want these guys to sell their house (long story, but they hate animals, even cats) so i'd appreciate hearing about anything that's worked for someone else

 

thanks
