How To Eliminate Urine Odor In Artificial Grass

Do you have artificial grass in your yard?

A lot of times people add artificial grass to their yard to provide a place for their dog to use the restroom.

Unfortunately, there is no soil for the urine to soak into, thus creating an unpleasant odor that can usually be quite strong especially during the summer heat.

Clear The Air’s Lawn/Yard Odor Eliminator works wonders to eliminate urine and feces odors from artificial grass.

Simply sprinkle our Lawn/Yard Odor Eliminator over your artificial grass and the odor will be eliminated in 24 hours. If the odor is extremely strong you may need to do two applications. There is no need to vacuum up or sweep the granules away. Our products are 100 non-toxic and safe even if ingested.

Clear the Air does not have to come into contact with the odor producer; it will pull the odors from the artificial grass even if it has soaked all the way through . Clear The Air draws in odors like a powerful magnet. The odors are adsorbed, and neutralized without any fragrances. Clear The Air does not cover up odors; it literally “clears the air” leaving the air fresh and clean.

How do you know if you have rats or mice:

• You will notice droppings in your home or garage.
• Sprinkle powder around the floor or anywhere you suspect rats, put a piece of food in the middle and see if you see tracks the next day from rats or mice.
• Check your pantry for holes or chewed edges on food packages. Also shredded paper or tooth marks are a good indication you have rats or mice.
• Listen for scratching in walls or attics especially at night.

In order to avoid having rats or mice invade your home and wreak havoc, you should follow these helpful tips:

• Keep garbage can lids tightly covered. Feed dogs and cats in a dish and take up the food they don’t eat. Don’t leave any reason for rats and mice to visit your yard.
• Don’t provide hiding spaces for rats or mice. Pull weeds, remove trash and any sort of junk you may have in your yard. You should also store wood and other materials a foot off the ground and never up against the house.
• Keep any entryways to your home closed up with screens and make sure the screens do not have holes in them. Mice can get through the tiniest of holes. Caulk or cement around pipes and cables where they can pass through walls.
• You can use poison or bait traps in your home. Put them in along the walls or cupboards where mice might get in. Remember to keep Clear The Air Odor Eliminator Bags handy if a rat or mouse dies behind a wall or inaccessible area.

5 Tips To Store Your RV For The Off Season

Unless you’re a full-timer, you need to store your RV in the off-season.

The following tips will help you prepare your coach for the months it sits idle, so that it will be in top shape when you are ready to take your next trip.

1. Make sure to hang Clear The Air Odor Eliminator Bags throughout the RV and especially in the refrigerator. The bags work best if there is constant air flow through the RV so if you can, leave the windows at least cracked.
2. Cancel liability, collision, medial and uninsured portions of the RV’s insurance policy if you are storing your RV on private property. Keep comprehensive coverage.
3. Clean your RV battery and terminals with baking soda and water and make sure it is fully charged. A fully battery wont freeze until at about minus 80 degrees F but a discharged battery can freeze at only 30 degrees below. Store your battery in a dry, cool and ventilated area away from children and pets.
4. Check to make sure critters are not building nests in or around your RV and engine. Before you start your RV engine or take your coach out of storage, check for nests and rodent damage to wires.
5. Avoid parking your RV tires on the soil and park on thick plywood covered with plastic. Unprotected tires will deteriorate faster.

5 Reasons To Adopt A Pet

Why adopting is better than purchasing a pet.

Thinking about getting a new pet? Before you go to your local pet store or contact a breeder, please consider adopting a pet.

The following are 5 reasons to adopt your pet:

1. Healthy Pet – Animal shelters across the United States are filled with happy and health animals begging for a forever home. Shelters provide exams and vaccinations when the pets arrive and also spay and neuter pets before they go out to be adopted. Most animals are given to shelters because of people reasons like divorce, moving, or financial constraints, not because of anything they’ve done wrong.
2. Save A Life – Did you know about 2.7 million dogs and cats are euthanized every year in the US because too many people give up their pets and too few go to a shelter to adopt? Unfortunately there is limited space at shelters and they must make the difficult decision to euthanize an animal who hasn’t been able to get adopted.
3. Save Money – Adopting an animal in itself is much less expensive than buying from a breeder or pet store. The fees you pay at a shelter barely cover the cost of spay or neuter and vaccinations.
4. Feel Better – Knowing you provided an animal a forever home that would otherwise not have one is a fulfilling feeling. Plus, animals give you unconditional love along with their psychological, emotional and physical benefits. Caring for a companion animal provides a sense of purpose and lessens feeling of loneliness and isolation for any age.
5. Stop Supporting Pet Overpopulation – Puppy mills have poor conditions with improper medical care for both puppies and adults. By adopting you are helping to give a pet a second chance at having a loving and forever home.

Please consider adopting if you are looking for a new fuzzy family member.

7 Fire Prevention Tips For Your Home

How to avoid a home fire.

Clear The Air knows the dangers of a home fire and the horrible aftermath it leaves behind.

Our product works wonders for eliminating any smoke odor from your home. Please contact us if you need help eliminating smoke odors from your home.

Make sure your home is prepared to not only warn you in the event of a fire but to prevent a fire all together. Below are tips to preventing fire in your home:

1. Smoke Alarms – Install them if you have none, and check the ones you do have. Press the test button once a month and change batteries every year. Smoke alarms older than 10 years are more likely to fail.
2. Carbon Monoxide (CO) Alarms – Equally as important as smoke alarms is having a unit that will alert you of high levels of carbon monoxide in the home. Check the unit’s packaging and also with your local fire department to learn more about what constitutes a hazardous CO reading.
3. Heating Equipment – Heating equipment is a leading factor in home fires during winter months. Be sure to have furnaces serviced by a reputable inspector, cleaned and maintained each fall before cold weather sets in. When operating portable or fixed space heaters, be conscious to keep them away from items that could ignite, including drapes and articles of clothing.
4. Personal Habits – Be conscious of where you are when you do the things you do. Smoking is the leading cause of fire deaths, sending bedding, trash and furniture up in flames. More fires start in the kitchen than any other place in the home, so keep a watchful eye on what you’re cooking.
5. Flammables – Ensure that flammables, such as gasoline, kerosene and paints, are kept in proper containers, tightly sealed and stored away from heat and flame. Never store any of those items near a furnace or hot water heater, and be sure to follow manufacturer instructions on storing these types of products.
6. Extinguishers – Many small home fires can be taken care of using a fire extinguisher before they get out of hand. One thing to remember, though, is that extinguishers do not last forever – plan on replacing the unit about every three years.
7. Candles – Blow out your candles when you leave a room and never leave them burning if you leave the house.

5 Tips To Prepare Your Home For The Fall Season

Fall is just around the corner and soon it will be time to start that fire in the fireplace and decorate for the holidays.

Clear The Air would like to share some great tips to make sure your home is ready for the Fall and Winter months to come.

Here are 5 home maintenance tips to prepare for the fall months. Remember to keep our Clear The Air products on hand for any odor you may experience in your home. Clear The Air works great for any last minute odors that creep up right before company arrives.

1. Check for leaks – Cold air can get in around doors and windows. Use a flashlight to check for door and window drafts. If you notice a leak you should add weather stripping to doors and use caulking on windows. This is also a good idea to do during the summer to keep cooling costs down.
2. Check smoke detectors – Replace your batteries every time fall and spring come around. So many fires are caused by Christmas trees so it is extremely important to check your smoke detectors to make sure they are working properly and can warn you in the event of an emergency.
3. Check your heating system – Just as you want to do before summer starts for your AC unit, check your heater to make sure it is working before the colder months of the winter set in.
4. Check your watering schedule – As temperatures begin to cool, plants need less water. Adjust your watering schedule for lawns, borders, and containers. Pay close attention to containers as they tend to become waterlogged.
5. Check to make sure your fireplace is ready for use – Make sure your fireplace is free of ashes and your chimney is cleaned out before having your first fire. You may also want to ensure your flu is open before lighting a fire if you closed it up over the warmer months. Nothing says Fall like a cozy fire in the fireplace. If your house smells like a fire after you have a fire in the fireplace, we recommend hanging a couple Odor Eliminator Bags around your fireplace to eliminate any smoke odors.

With frequent cleaning, use of Clear the Air’s Odor Eliminators, and limiting the diaper’s exposure to the air, your home can be the best smelling home with a baby in it on the block. Here’s how:
