Getting the smell out of reusable pee pads - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I use Simple Solutions pee pads for Mia and change them every other day. Lately after washing and drying them they still have a odor. I prefer these to the disposable ones but is there a way to get the smell out Thanks

I add borax to the soap when I wash mine and use a long wash cycle.

When I wash my pads, I use detergent, a scoop of borax, and a "shot" of Odoban (from Home Depot etc) - works perfectly!

Hi Wylie's Mom,
What type of Odoban do you use for washing pee pads

Thanks

This is what I use seems to work better then just detergent. I use our regular detergent in hot water and add 1 cup of OdoBan
Fresh Linen Disinfectant Laundry and Air Freshener Concentrate (1 gal. $10.00 at home depot) and do a longer soak.

I buy the gallon size from Home Depot, in Eucalyptus or Fresh Linen.
