OdoBan Disinfectant Odor Eliminator and All Purpose Cleaner Concentrate, Original Eucalyptus Scent, 1 Gallon

Edit again. Just ordered a 3rd time. I read a review on one of their other products that said that product was ok - but the original disinfectant was better. I still bought that product. With this new purchase though- now, I get it. I agree with that review, wherever it was, this one is a tough one to beat. I can see how some like the smell and others think it’s cloying. Personally, I don’t think it’s bad. It’s also not my favorite either. Other scents are available. But I’m impatient, and the scent is refreshing and clean smelling enough for me. And maybe this one is the best smelling out of them all, which was an opinion I did read in another review.. However, if they came out with this in a scent, something more along the lines of Mrs Myers basil or lemon verbena or more closer to the likeness of their scents, I might be more inclined to try that out. This, as it currently is though, is as close to perfect as I have been looking for, and I do like the scent.. As perfect as it is.. There are a few things about it that I wish I had known. Only so I had a better idea of how quickly I was going to go through it. Especially when most reviews stated a little goes a long way. Well it does. But it depends largely on how and what you use it primarily for. For urine or biological messes on fabrics being laundered- I pre treated with a spray bottle using a 50/50% solution, diluting the cleaner in equal parts with water. Then when I put the fabric in the washer, I used 8oz non diluted cleaner poured directly into where the fabric softener goes, instead of using fabric softener. But I did still add fabric softener. I’m going to try it with out it next time I use it for the wash. Or you can add it to the final rinse yourself if you remember to do that sort of thing. This is very effective on both stains and odors in the wash - And I really thought I was going to need to rewash a small load that I was sure I didn’t get to in time and figured it would take at least 1 more wash if it did work, and debated on if it did require a second wash- it’s possible that nothing can be done and was prepared to throw it away. Instead. I was amazed that it was ready to simply throw in the drier. No trace or even a hint of any bad smells. And most stains. Even old ones were gone. Although I did use a healthy amount of oxyclean powder, and detergent, mostly dissolved in hot water first and then poured into the clothes/wash directly in my top loader washer. (Personal preference of mine to do it that way. (What works for me, might not for you), even though the directions instruct to add before you add your clothes.) *** So adding a disclaimer- Dont do what I describe. I’m not giving you directions on what to do and I’m not giving any advice on how to use the product. *** Please follow the directions on whatever products you use. *** If you do try anything I describe that is different than how the products manufacturer instructs how to use the product, or maybe even advises specifically against what I’ve described to do, and you still do it, please realize: *** It’s at your own risk. I’m not advising you to do anything. *** This review is informational only. *** Not Instructional. *** This review is NOT educational. *** I’m not responsible for your choice in how you want or choose to use the product. Especially if the manufacturer advises against or the instructions are different than how you choose to use the product. *** Always read the instructions and follow them for yours and others safety and to avoid the risk of property damage and prevent potentially voiding any warranties that may be affected.. Back to what I was saying… It is very effective in the wash. However, it requires using a lot more of it than I thought it would. But it can still be cost effective, if you use it instead of using fabric softener, it is used in the final rinse- 8oz not diluted - either add in where the fabric softener is supposed to go, or add to the water directly when the final rinse has mostly filled - to make sure it’s distributed evenly and not concentrated on just a couple items. Also as a cleaner, I prefer using an even half product half water ratio. I use it mostly for pet messes and as a stain remover and as a laundry sanitizer. Because we are naughty pet owners. I can’t blame the animals. The dog had been waiting patiently, but the last one minute, was one minute too long, and because the cat protests when the litter box is not being attended to as often as it should be. So this is the all in one product I’ve been looking for. Until I find one better. I’m open to suggestions. But, I’ve tried many products before this one. And so far I’m already planning to order again, because I really don’t want to run out of it. But I sure do go through this type of product very quickly. But if I follow the recommended dilution - it seems weak, and I can’t smell it. I feel like I have to be able to smell it, for it to be effective. Which I realize is not the most logical thought. I accidentally bought the regular 3n1 carpet again. I meant to buy the pro grade 3n1carpet. I still plan on trying other products when the budget allows. I think testing these types of cleaners has now become a habit. But we’ll just call it a hobby. That sounds better.

Unfortunately we have the problem with people going to the bathroom near our back door at work. This works really well for this. I pour some boiling water on the affected area and then I put about a tablespoon of this with hot water and dump this over that about 5 minutes later. This has an overall pleasant smell and it doesn't bother some of my coworkers who are normally sensitive to some air fresheners like Febreze. Overall I find this easy to use I use a dedicated stainless steel pot to cut the solution down I honestly do not know if it leaves a residue because I'm pouring it on concrete that has been previously stained and other past chemicals dumped on it this is a very good value for your money cuz it gets watered down so much this would be good for hundreds of uses you can't beat it for the price

We are remodeling an old house. The basement gets damp on the east wall and floor and it has been smelling musty for a while. It's an unfinished basement made from field stone. The only amenity it has is a concrete floor. It is under 300 square feet, so it basically just houses things like the furnace and hot water heater. Nothing is stored in it, but it has some dust and debris along the edges that need to be swept up. It's hard to sweep up damp debris. I got a small household dehumidifier to run, which helped a little (and it is still running) with controlling some humidity, but there was still a strong musty smell. Then I bought these great air purifiers from Amazon during the last sale. I put them in the basement, but they did not do much to get rid of the mildew, so I moved them to other parts of the house. They worked fine in other rooms to freshen the air in those rooms and reduce the dust. Two things have finally resolved the original problem of the damp, musty smell: 1. An XPower 1/4 HP centrifugal fan (also sold on Amazon) that advertises itself for carpet drying and water damage restoration, among other things. We don't have carpet in the basement, but this thing was amazing. It moves A LOT of air, We set the timer for it to run for 3 hours, and after doing that for 2 or 3 days, it has made a huge difference. You might need more than one for a larger area, but this has worked tremendously. 2. Odoban. I cannot tell you have many deodorizers/disinfectants/cleaners we tried. Many were okay, but had no lasting effect and didn't entirely fix the mustiness. Some were ordered from specialty websites and were fairly expensive. They helped slightly, but not as much as hoped. Then we tried Odoban. Certainly nothing that is easy to get and is inexpensive can help, right? Well, it had great reviews so we might as well try it. We ran the fan for a few days, then I mixed the Odoban to the maximum disinfecting solution, added it to a half-gallon sprayer with a battery powered trigger (nothing fancy, no fancy equipment) and sprayed the east wall and around the eastern edge of the floor, which is where it gets damp frequently. The Odoban smells very pleasant while spraying. After spraying, it was the end of the day, so I locked up and went home and let the Odoban sit on the problem areas. Then next day the mustiness was pretty much gone. I ran the powerful fan for another 3 hours to make sure things were completely dry. I still haven't completely cleaned up the debris along the edge of the floor yet, but the smell hasn't been back. Finally, the miracle I was looking for. Also, it seems there was a plumbing problem at some point, as the floor behind the toilet on the first floor stank like urine. I sprayed that with a few different things - even straight laundry bleach - and it helped for a while but came back quickly. I hit it with the Odoban and it hasn't been back yet. Yes, still a lot of work to do, but this Odoban has really done the trick in making it a more pleasant environment to work in. Smells are eliminated, at least over the least few weeks. You no longer wonder why it smells so musty when you walk in the door. We are just thrilled with Odoban for eliminating stubborn smells. It helps that it is a disinfectant, as it likely kills a number of organisms that cause foul odors.

I use the OdoBan Disinfectant Concentrate and Odor Eliminator (Original Eucalyptus Scent, 1 Gallon) at my job, and it’s been a very reliable and cost-effective cleaning solution. The biggest advantage is that it’s a concentrate, so a little goes a long way. It mixes easily with water and can be used for a variety of cleaning needs, including disinfecting surfaces and helping control odors, which is especially important in a high-traffic, animal-friendly environment. The odor elimination is strong and noticeable without being overwhelming. The eucalyptus scent is clean and fresh, and it helps neutralize lingering smells rather than just masking them. In spaces where puppies are active, it’s helpful for keeping things smelling sanitary and maintained throughout the day. It also feels versatile and practical for daily use—good for floors, kennels, and general surface cleaning. As long as it’s properly diluted, it’s easy to work with and doesn’t leave heavy residue. Overall, it’s a dependable, budget-friendly disinfectant that works well for professional environments where cleanliness and odor control are important.

House feels super clean after cleaning with it. Been using it for mopping, putting in bottles to spray and overall cleaning everything up. I love the smell and it makes the house feel and smell 10/10.

I purchased this disinfectant after watching a reel. The professional cleaner "swears by" this product. The fresh smell doesn't last as long as I would like, and within a few minutes, it seems to dissipate. However, I do think it initially helps with any lingering odors - such as scrubbing out the trash can and around the toilet that your husband uses - ladies, you know what I mean...

I was annoyed at myself for buying this until I actually tried it when our basement had a bad leak. It did wonders to eliminate that awful wet moldy smell and it didn't come back! Also great for stinky shoes.

With Having pets, this definitely helps clean up any odors that linger around. I have purchased this over and over. It makes your house smell great

Good strong disinfectant. Works for floors, counter tops and bathrooms

Good but not good for drainage

¡Una verdadera maravilla! Tengo 8 perros y dos gatos, así que hay olores que simplemente no salen con los limpiadores comunes. Lave un sillón un montón de veces, con todas las mezclas habidas y por haber y siempre olia mal. Una sola lavada con este producto y no huele más, el precio si es elevado, pero vale completamente la pena, si lo usas de acuerdo a las instrucciones que vienen en el frasco te puede rendir muchísimo. Me encantó, lo volvería a comprar :)

Great smell but no different from other cleaning products not worth the price maybe half the said price I would say bleach would be as good if not for the smell

Me encanta!! Rinde muchísimo mi bote anterior me duró 1 año pues se diluye y el aroma que tiene es increíble!
