OK - now trying it.

Look out your west windows... If you see big flames in the sky, you
know
why :-)

Believe it or not, light a candle and leave it near the smell, it will
remove it very quickly.

Subject: [ukha_d] Utterly off-topic, a thorny problem


Yesterday morning, our cleaner ironed my trousers...

... Hung the trousers up in the airing cupboard...

... And shut one of the cats in there :-(

I discovered the cat in question about 20 hours later...

... During which time he had done a big poo.

The very good news is that the cat in question seems fine.
The good news is that he'd pooed into a plastic crate we had in there,
rather than directly onto the floor.

The trousers have now been re-washed, which has got rid of the smell.

The smell in the airing cupboard lingers.

How do I get rid of it?

I assume that the nasty smell is basically long-chain carbon molecules?
Is there some way of breaking these down elegantly?

The option of opening the airing cupboard door and suitable windows is
a
pig, because the airing cupboard opens onto the landing which has no
external walls/windows, so it's a case of venting out VIA another room.
Also, it's COLD at the moment, so it's only an option for a few hours
per day.

I don't just want to use an air-spray. Since this will MASK the smell
rather than actually getting rid of it. Also, multiple-chemical
intolerance is a big enough problem in my life anyway, without making
things worse.

Any ideas?

Mark
