The BEST product for stink removal!!
I've used Bac-Out for years, and it's the BEST - as long as you know how to use it. First of all, it only works on ORGANIC messes. It won't work on petroleum or chemical based messes. It works great on all the gross bodily fluids (human or animal) like poop, pee, puke, and even "death juice". Ugh! Second - the reason it works is because of micro-organisms that completely DIGEST the mess -- not just cover it up with scent. The micro-organisms in Bac-Out need to be kept alive!! So, make sure you store it properly so the good little buggers don't freeze or bake. Don't treat the mess with chemicals (like bleach) before or while using Bac-Out because chemicals could kill the good micro-organisms. Third - it takes a while for the good little buggers to digest all that stuff. So you have to let them stay alive long enough to completely digest the yucky stuff. You should keep spraying it on the area so that it remains wet at all times for AT LEAST 24 hours - longer for grosser messes. If they dry out, the good little buggers will die!
I have used this with great success on mold, mildew, baby diapers, pet messes and many other things. But the thing that PROVED to me that Bac-Out is the best is this: (spoiler alert: this is totally GROSS!) An aquaintance of mine (for reasons I STILL can NOT fathom) was storing the remains of his dead dog in a cooler, until he could find a suitable place to bury the dog. God knows why, but the dead dog was in the cooler for years. Ewww!!!!! I told you it was gross! Well, when transporting the cooler, some of the "death juice" leaked out of the cooler and into the carpeting of his car. The whole car reeked of death. It was unbearable. He told me he was going to sell or trash the car. I told him about Bac-Out, and exactly how to use it. He sprayed it on numerous times a day, so that it never dried out, for many days. He was absolutely SHOCKED that it totally worked! The smell was COMPLETELY GONE!! Sorry for such a disgusting story, but it really shows how great a product this is!
