Stall Odor Problems

Odor problems in animal stalls usually result from ammonia and mercaptans in urine and feces. The stench produced is discomforting to both the farm workers and animals. Over time, the odors could increase in concentration and result in serious air pollution problems. Studies with various animals including horses have shown that even low levels of ammonia are more than just a nuisance problem. It can cause airway defense mechanisms to be depressed, a higher rate of pneumonia, lower weight gains, and damage to the respiratory tract.

The Solution

Smelleze® Natural Horse Smell Deodorizer Granules were specially developed to adsorb, neutralize, and encapsulate offensive urine generated ammonia odors and wetness. Smelleze® will eliminate malodor in stalls, stables, feed lots, animal pens and trailers. This will create a healthier environment for livestock, reduce fly infestation and thrush, extend bedding life, reduce stall maintenance, and result in drier stalls. The latter is particularly advantageous to newborns and sick or injured animals that are confined to stalls.

Smelleze® is also a superior solution to lime. It will not sting eyes and nostrils like lime and be dangerously slippery when wet. Furthermore, it will not crack hooves and burn tender foot pads and you only need to use about one third as much as lime. Smelleze® will work better than lime in addition to saving you time and money.

It's No Cover-Up

The Smelleze® Stall Deodorizer Granules are a natural deodorizer that can be used to eliminate noxious and unpleasant urine and feces generated ammonia odors instead of merely masking them with fragrances. It works through a process of absorption, adsorption and cation exchange. Smelleze® is negatively charged whereas odoriferous gases ride on positively charged particles. As a result, Smelleze® draws in stall odors like a strong magnet. Thereafter, it traps, neutralizes, and encapsulates the odors without smelly cover-ups. Furthermore, it also traps cations like ammonium ions directly from urine by selective ion exchange thus reducing the generation of ammonia odors. The molecular structure of Smelleze® is made up of a lattice structure arranged to form a honeycomb framework of billions of interconnecting channels. This gives Smelleze® an enormous surface area that is larger than several football fields. The latter enables Smelleze® to adsorb phenomenal amounts of stall odors.

Environmentally Friendly

The Smelleze® Natural Horse Smell Deodorizer Granules are non-toxic, safe, non-hazardous, natural, non-scented, non-flammable, and non-caustic. Smelleze® is an ideal environmentally friendly product for eliminating stall odors and can be safely handled around horses' water and feed with bare hands. This product does not contain chemical additives and is especially beneficial for those suffering from chemical sensitivity. As an added benefit, used Smelleze® that is loaded with ammonium ions makes an excellent soil amendment and can be recycled as a slow release fertilizer in planting areas due to its nutrient value. Used Smelleze® may be applied to gardens, flower beds, yards, fields, potting soil and plant beds with thorough watering.
