I use it on everything too.

My BF smokes in his apartment, and if it weren't for Febreze, everything would smell like smoke. Same with my mom's house everytime she decides to fry fish for dinner. I spray that isht like there's no tomorrow and it's always worked for me!

I love Fabreeze, but Zero Odor is fantastic. What I like about Zero Odor is that the smell doesn't come back, and there is no "fresh scent." I used it a lot when Forrest would be a very bad puppy, and literally it took the smell away. It took a few days for the enzymes to fully work, but it's the best thing I've ever found for odors. And I should know. It took 6 years before Forrest was fully housebroken.

ETA it's a lot quicker to buy zero odor from ebay than it is the zero odor website. Their shipping is pretty slow unless you expediate it.

Thanks for this. My little dachshund is just over a year old and he has still not quite figured it out yet. He's 50/50 on letting me know when he needs to 'boom-boom', but not at all when he needs to tinkle.

As for the topic - I bought an old piece of furniture that reeks of moth ball smell and the guy who sold it to me said to wipe it down with turpintine (?sp). I did and it did not work.
