1Can OdoBan® be used in the washing machine?
Yes, OdoBan® Disinfectant and Odor Eliminator Concentrate can be used in the rinse cycle to freshen, soften and deodorize clothing. We recommend pouring OdoBan® Concentrate into the fabric softener dispenser to deodorize and soften laundry, as well as, eliminate static cling. Four to eight ounces of OdoBan® Concentrate is recommended for a large load in a standard washer, but for HE washers that use much less water, 4 ounces should be sufficient.
2Does OdoBan® eliminate pet urine smells?
Yes, OdoBan® Disinfectant and Odor Eliminator Concentrate deodorizes and eliminates pet urine odors. When using on carpets, use 32 ounces per gallon of water (1:3). For urine, feces and vomit on carpet and upholstery, spray product on affected areas, allow 10 minute contact time. Then blot with clean cloth and allow to dry. Test hidden area for colorfastness prior to use.
3Is OdoBan® safe for pets?
OdoBan® Disinfectant and Odor Eliminator Concentrate is trusted by many pet owners, veterinary clinics, and animal shelters. OdoBan can be used in homes and facilities with pets. However, please allow these areas to completely dry before letting dogs, cats, or other pets back into the area. If you cannot avoid letting pets back into the area right away, then follow mopping with a plain water rinse.
4Will OdoBan® remove cigarette, cigar, and other smoke odors?
Yes, OdoBan® Disinfectant and Odor Eliminator Concentrate is excellent for eliminating cigarette and cigar smells. OdoBan® can be applied to soft surfaces like carpet, upholstery and curtains to deodorize. Test a small inconspicuous area for colorfastness before applying to a larger area. Spray hard surfaces such as countertops, sinks, tubs, mopping floors and washing walls. OdoBan® can be used on any washable surface. If you plan to repaint the walls, follow the deodorizing application with a plain water rinse before painting.
5Does OdoBan® kill germs?
Yes, OdoBan® Disinfectant and Odor Eliminator Concentrate kills 99.99% of germs on hard, non-porous, non-food contact surfaces in 60 seconds. These germs include streptococcus pyogenes (strep), escherichia coli 0157:H7 (E. coli) (pathogenic strain), listeria monocytogenes, staphylococcus aureus (staph) and klebsiella pneumoniae.
6Should OdoBan® Concentrate always be diluted before use?
Yes, OdoBan® Disinfectant and Odor Eliminator Concentrate is quite concentrated and should always be diluted. A good multipurpose solution is 5 parts water to 1 part concentrate. This makes a powerful deodorizer, as well as a disinfectant for hard, nonporous surfaces.
7Can OdoBan® be used as a disinfectant on granite countertops?
Yes, OdoBan® Disinfectant and Odor Eliminator Concentrate can be used on natural stone countertops to disinfect. Mix 5 ounces of concentrate per gallon of water to make a sanitizing and disinfecting solution. Allow surface to remain wet for 60 seconds to kill viruses, and 10 minutes to kill bacteria.
1How do you mix OdoBan® Concentrate to make a solution to use in a spray bottle?
To make a use dilution of OdoBan® Disinfectant and Odor Eliminator, simply mix OdoBan Concentrate with water according to the Use-Solution Preparation Chart on the label. To make a solution equivalent to OdoBan Ready-to-Use Spray, mix 5 parts water to 1 part concentrate. Never mix OdoBan® or any cleaning product with other chemicals.
8Can OdoBan® Concentrate be used in carpet cleaners?
For cleaning carpets, we recommend OdoBan® 3-in-1 Carpet Cleaner. However, OdoBan® Disinfectant and Odor Eliminator Concentrate can be used in carpet extraction cleaning machines to deodorize carpet. It is recommended that a small area be tested for colorfastness before applying an OdoBan solution to an entire rug or carpeted area. Discoloration is rare, but possible. Recommended solution for this application is 8 ounces per gallon of water. Do not mix OdoBan® with other cleaning or deodorizing chemicals; mix with water only. Do not use OdoBan® in equipment which heats the solution. Rinse vessels of machine with water after use to prevent residual product from mixing with product that may be used in the future.
9Does OdoBan® kill mold and mildew?
OdoBan® Disinfectant and Odor Eliminator Concentrate is a mildewstat and controls mold and mildew growth or prevents occurrences when sprayed regularly, about once a week. OdoBan® Disinfectant and Odor Eliminator Concentrate kills the Athletes Foot Fungus, but is not labeled as a fungicide or mildewcide for any other organisms.

Great for some purposes
I originally purchased this product to use in an elderly person’s bedside commode. It was not effective for that purpose overnight and I now use regular chlorine bleach for that. However, this product is very good for laundering bedcovers, waterproof pads, or clothing with a strong urine smell If the fabric can take it I dump a small cup of this in, a good smelling detergent and wash on hot. Lower temp if not. This product does not stain or fade fabric. I like the citrus scent much better than the others and where I live Home Depot is the only place that carries it in the gallons. This time I ordered it online and it was great not to have to lug gallons home.

5 Stars!!
I have used Odoban for cat urine odors on carpet, general cleaning and disinfecting and have been blown away by the results. The citris scent is by far the best out of all Odoban products. This scent is so light and airy and does not leave a pungent smell like I have found with the eucalyptus and lavender Odoban products.The product is reasonably priced and helps keep the household odors at bay.
Pros: Easy to Clean, Easy to Use, High Quality, reasonable price, many uses, concentrated

Very versital…many uses
We use this every day in many ways. We have used Odoban for many years. For disinfecting items, used in laundry to get rid of bad orders such as sweat from shirts and socks and smelly bath towels. Originally purchased this to safely remove black mold from our window sills in the winter. Now we use it for everything. Great for freshening up autos, rooms, pet areas, litter boxes, etc. Love the lemon scent. Best part it is natural and not some chemical. Also purchased the aerosol cans for air freshening. Can’t live without this great product.
Pros: Easy to Use, High Quality, very effective

1 Gal. Cucumber Melon Odor Eliminator and Disinfectant Multi-Purpose Cleaner Concentrate
Better than Bleach or LySol
We have used this product for years. It is the BEST.
It kills more germs than bleach, lysol, or germx.
It can be used EVERY WHERE with no problem.
We use it in spray bottles for spot cleaning, in every part of the house.
We use it to freshen the car and to clean the seats.
We put it in our laundry loads as a -boost-.
We put it thru our steam cleaner when we do the rugs.
We use it in the shop, the dog houses, the barn and especially the chicken coop, where lots of germs can be found.
It does not irriatate our skin or burn our eyes and throat.
We buy the gallon concentrate and prepare it at a strength that suits
the individual job.
We’ve never had a product that we rely on so much and are assured that
its doing whats expected.
Its nice that its also available in different scents, so we can have a
change from time to time.
We were perturbed when our local stores stopped carrying it but soon
found out that ordering online was just so much easier.
Its takes about a week to arrive and its brought right to the door.
Shopping at its best.
We now have several friends and family using it and everyone agrees
that we dont know how we ever managed without it.
Pros: Great Scent, Immediate Results, Cost Effective, Easy to Use, High Quality, Packaging, Long-Lasting, Effective

wonderful odor killer
We have an elderly, incontinent, person in our home. Odoban kills the smells associated with incontinence. Our home no longer smells like an old person lives there. We use it in the laundry, on the mattress, on the fabric upholstery and for mopping the floors.
We had been washing our laundry multiple times without success in removing urine smells. Odoban kills the odor the first time; no more multiple washes.
Pros: Great Scent, Immediate Results, Cost Effective, Easy to Use, High Quality, Fast Results, Effective

Definitely for Pet Cleanups!
The smell is not Cucumber/Melon to me but it is better than Lavender. It is a great pet elimination pan odor remover. The smell lingers for a small bit of time and isn’t strong like you would think. It is soapy and so works well as a cleaner. You can dilute it and use on carpets. You can use it to get rid of germs in the bathroom also, but it is important to air out the house afterwords.
Pros: Immediate Results, Cost Effective, Easy to Use, Fast Results, Long-Lasting, Effective, kills germs
Cons: scent could be better

Great product for EVERYTHING for cleaning!
Great for cleaning everything. It disinfects even viruses, and deodorizes with a pleasant not overpowering scent. Cleans everything. Cleans floors, walls, mold, counter tops, laundry, car carpets, and anything else you can think of. Great for doggie accidents. It neutralizes the odor and disinfects and does not damage your floor. Great for the doggie crate and washing their bedding in the washer. I have 9 foster dogs and people can’t believe how clean my house is. Couldn’t do it without this FABULOUS product. Affordable and so many uses. As a dog rescuer I could not live without it!

very good cleaner & deodorizer
Besides Simple Green, I love this cleaner for general cleaning, for bathrooms and washing trash cans. The fresh eucalyptus scent is pleasant and deodorizes tough smells for hours.

Takes away gym bathroom smell/ dog odors
I purchased this to take away the old ranch house odor. I knew the house would have the older home smell despite daily cleaning and updates. It does a great job in eliminating the old musty house smell.
I also use regularly it in the boys/ guest bathroom on the countertop and floors, it eliminates the gym smell completely.
I recently tried in on the spare room, after a guests dog peed on the carpet. I shampooed the room three times, but was left with the after lingering dog urine smell. I sprayed this heavily throughout the room carpet and the smell has dissipated greatly!
I love that it takes smells away, but I am not a fan of the fragrance in it while using it. It reminds me of a doggy exam room. Luckily after a couple of hours it dissipates enough to not be noticeable.
If you have delayed in buying from the perfume smell. (I always check the cleaners- to make sure its not horrendous prior to buying.) Don’t worry- the initial strong scent goes away fairly quickly and leaves nice neutral scent!
ADVICE: be sure not to spray on veneer or treated/coated wood, it will leave a residue stain that it very difficult to get off.
Pros: Easy to Use, Good Size & Weight
