Last week I wrote about how I helped a client furnish their new apartment with toxic free furniture.
This week I want to tell you how we removed a very strong odor from the apartment, even though we couldn’t determine exactly what it was.
It seemed to me that it was some kind of citrus oil-based product and I thought it had been used on the wood floors.
My client hired a cleaning lady to work with me. She brought a “steam mop” and we used a brand new set of clean pads to mop the floor so as to not bring any odors in from other places. This worked really well just by itself to reduce the odor, but it did not eliminate it completely.
Then we used EnviroKlenz Everyday Odor Eliminator according to the instructions on the bottle. We mixed it with water in a spray bottle and sprayed it all over the floors. We waited 15 minutes, and then used the steam mop again to remove it. This greatly lessened the odor.
Then we did the whole process again.
Each time the odor was less and less.
We also did this procedure in a closet that had a perfume smell and it worked there too.
