Having a house full of boys can sometimes lead to some pretty stinky situations.  There’s just something about boys….and I know girls are stinky too, but sometimes a mom needs a bit of extra help to get rid of odors that can choke the living daylights out of her as she’s just innocently walking down the hall, especially past the kids’ bathroom.

Healthy Odor Control is one tool a mom can use to get rid of those choking odors.  It actually works by releasing turpenes (essential oils) into the air.  These turpenes are antifungal, antiseptic, and antibacterial.  They actually absorb the molecules that are floating around in the air causing the odor to remain in the room, thereby neutralizing that odor.

I actually received the Healthy Odor Control Gel in a jar.  It came with a little crock I can use to pour the gel in every so often, probably once a week or so, as needed.  The gel has a very citrusy type of scent to it, and although it’s not so strong and overbearing that it bothers me, it’s still strong enough to spread throughout my house, I noticed.  I placed it in my bathroom  next to the trash can (that’s full of dirty diapers) and the toilet.  It definitely worked to eliminate any odor, but it also had the citrusy scent of its own.  The gel itself is clear and looks as though it’s cubed, and it’s sitting in liquid.  While it’s safe, being non-toxic, anti-flammable, and eco-friendly, I still just tried to keep it put up away from little hands, as it’s a very large jar of gel, and I still wouldn’t want my toddler to get ahold of it.

You can purchase the Gel in a jar for $$18.35, which is quite reasonable, as it is a very large jar and would last for several weeks, especially if adding a little bit, at a time, to the crock holder. I would definitely be prone to use this in a bathroom, locker room, nursery (away from little hands but next to a diaper pail), the kitchen, around a kitty litter box, etc.
