After returning from crufts Im a little lost as to which product to try.  Im currently in a rented house which has a gravel back garden and that where the dogs toilet, and with two newfoundlands and a shih tzu it aint just tiny bits.  My trouble is the gravel hasnt been laid properly and I cant change the garden in any way but some areas of the gravel stink.  i try as best as I can to go and water the area down when they have weed to try and dilute the smell but some areas stink.

I was wondering what you guys would recommend, a product called urine off seemed to be a popular buy but never used it myself.  I personally bought some solution called oddor kill from the animal health stall which smelt great but when i diluted it and used it lost all smell.

what do you guys use?

Biological washing liquid.

I love the smell of odour kill too.  Try using a stronger solution, instead of the recommended dilution rate.

And if you want to be 'green' and are very clever, you can also work out a way to divert the waste water out of your washing machine and use that. It will still contain enough cleaning agents and enzymes to be of use.

Yardfresh & urinoff are good but expensive, I am at the moment using safe4. they are good. but I know folk that use persil non bio and I did for a while.

Why Non-Bio?
It's the enzymes in Bio that break down the smell.... as in Simple Solution.

I've used odourfresh for years, it's miles cheaper than odorkill etc and works just as well.

I use odourfresh too. Its really good and lovely fragrances which last for ages. Currently my favourite one is lavender.

odourfresh in bubblegum or cherry, it works so well and i have 5 dogs that are only allowed in a small paved area so it could get quite stinky but it doesn't. Of course most their 'business' is done on the daily walk but they all need to pee throughout the day.

odourfresh here too, bought in bulk 4 x 5litre, so lasts a while, it works wonders on the paved area, and also great used on hard floors :-)

I use "Selsan Pink Disinfectant Deodoriser Cleaner" also Selchem DK "Pear drops" odour control fluid.
And one day a week "Jeyes Fluid" as this helps kill any nasty bacteria that may come from foxes or bird dropings. We back on to a park so you can never be to careful. Cheaper than vets bills.
