my room smells 'doggy'.?
Ive got two dogs who sleep in my room in their own beds, but also sleep on my bed during the day when Im gone. Ive got a lot of things that absorb the odor-a down comfortor, a heavy duvet, a memory foam mattress topper. I wash them weekly with an odor fighting additive and they smell ok. But, besides changing the dogs bedding and my bedding and general cleaning, like vacuuming and dusting, what else can I do to make the room smell better? I dont like fabreeze fake spray scents, any other suggestions to get rid of the funk?
good answers so far, thanks! We are renting, so taking out the carpet is off the list. It is about time to have them cleaned and that may be contributing to it. I like the idea of a citrus candle and remembered I really like pink grapefruit candle scents and opening the window is a daily thing too. Im sure its the carpet--time to clean them and just do the maintenance. :P

For my family, with several cats, we have the window opened for about an hour a day...even in cold weather, just to get some good fresh air into the room. Best to do it just a few hours before you want to use the bedroom.
I also like to use a small citrus candle, which I burn only for a brief period of time when the window is closed...always at a time when there are no animals in the room though and the door is closed to prevent them from upsetting the candle.
Between the two of those things (window and candle) our room smells fresh and inviting and I sleep great!

Open the window for an hour or so and let in some fresh air.Sprinkle some baking soda in your carpet to get rid of stale odors,and vacuum.There are many nice smelling air fresheners now a days pick one you like and use it.

I suspect you have a fitted carpet in your room and this is the problem. Go for a hard wood floor (with some nice rugs and mats which can be washed as necessary) and you will get rid of your problem.

canines do no longer scent till they have a difficulty i.e. an ear an infection, undesirable tooth or an anal gland difficulty. My canines have consistently lived in the domicile and slept in my mattress room. at recent I even have in straightforward terms one canines and he or she has no longer had a bath for approximately 2 years. None of my canines have had universal baths, it dries their dermis and makes them itchy. My domicile would not scent and neither does my canines. None of my canines have ever produced an odour. After a muddy walk I sparkling her off with heat water. i do no longer use any shampoo. I wash her bedding a week and sparkling her mattress with vinegar. in case you bypass away your canines exterior she must be attacked with the aid of different animals, stolen or abused. She could additionally disturb the neighbours. you are able to desire to take some day without work once you get her, however in case you desire her to be chuffed once you're at artwork bypass away her in the kitchen for countless the time as she desires to be self sustaining.
