Cure for dog urine smell outside?
Hi,
I have a small fenced in grassy area next to my home for my dog to roam around in. Lately with the summer heat it has developed the sour smell of urine. Does anyone know of a simple treatment for this that is not harmful to my dog? Thanks |

Nope, all the treatments I can think of involve ways of getting rid of the
incontinent beast. "Bob" wrote in message ... Hi, I have a small fenced in grassy area next to my home for my dog to roam around in. Lately with the summer heat it has developed the sour smell of urine. Does anyone know of a simple treatment for this that is not harmful to my dog? Thanks |

Does anyone know of a simple treatment for this that is not harmful to my dog? Thanks Lime can be sprinkled over the area and watered in and will help, but really, daily hosing is the only thing that works well for urine. I'm assuming you are scooping the solids. Teaching your dog to go in one particular spot instead of the entire area would also at least confine the problem. You could gravel in in and then it would be feasable to use some of the organic septic system treatments that digest waste to speed up the process. |

It will take a heap of water to wash it away even with baking soda etc, which is probably going to alter the ph of the soil in the process. All those daily leaks the dog has been taking has filtered down deep into the soil base and its gonna be a lingering problem...........without the proper nutralizer sold (some kind of enzyme from what I have read on it) Visit my website: http://www.frugalmachinist.com Opinions expressed are those of my wifes, I had no input whatsoever.

Not only that, be sure to take the dog with you when you do. Only a twit doesn't take his dog for a walk every day. "escapee" wrote in message ...

... Hi, I have a small fenced in grassy area next to my home for my dog to roam around in. Lately with the summer heat it has developed the sour smell of urine. Does anyone know of a simple treatment for this that is not harmful to my dog? I believe cover it with a layer of compost will help. "chaz" wrote in message ink.net... This is from my compost note: Many gardeners with a high proportion of acid-rich materials to compost mistakenly add lime to their pile to produce compost with a balanced pH. Unfortunately, adding ground limestone will turn your compost ecosystem into an ammonia factory, with nitrogen rapidly lost as a noxious gas.

Hi, I have a small fenced in grassy area next to my home for my dog to roam around in. Lately with the summer heat it has developed the sour smell of urine. Does anyone know of a simple treatment for this that is not harmful to my dog? A good watering followed by spreading a few pounds of sugar over the surface followed by another watering. The sugar will provide a large amount of carbohydrate to feed the soil bacteria who will tie up the excess nitrogen in their bodies as they multiply instead of outgassing all that ammonia and stink. A 5lb bag spread over a 10'x20' area would be a good start, repeat in a couple of days. Other sources of carbon such as sifted compost will help keep the soil healthy and allow the soil bacteria to break down the wastes. Don't let the soil go dry or bacterial action will slow down. |
