Gonzo Odor Eliminating Rocks for Homes - 2 Pack

I had a handmade wool rug that was sealed in storage with mothballs. When I unwrapped it, it REEKED. I tried every trick in the book (baking soda, vinegar, vodka, Febreze) and nothing worked to get the smell out. The rug stunk up the entire house, despite being professionally cleaned before it was sealed up for storage. I tried these bags of rocks as a last resort. I was amazed. I put a few bags around the rug and waited a couple of days. I didn't notice a difference, but then I picked up one of the bags and it reeked like the rug, but almost more concentrated. I realized the bags were soaking up the smell and were literally saturated. I've been putting them out in the sun every couple of days, and then back to the rug. The smell is fading away quickly now. It's amazing.

Very nice remove bad smell from my dog

I bought these hoping it would help with litter box odor. Since I moved into a tiny apartment half the size of my old house I'm not able to put the two litter boxes in inconspicuous areas. Now I have one in my guest bathroom and one in the living room (☹️). Needles to say, the smell can be... distracting, and embarrassing when I have company. Even though I use clumping litter, there are always little bits that break off and stay in the box when we scoop and it's not long before it starts to smell, and in a tiny area such as my apartment, it's just too much. It was especially noticeable in the bathroom. Ewwww! Since I can't afford to fully replace the litter every couple of days, I gave these a shot instead. After opening the packages (*over a wastebasket and jiggling the mesh bag to dislodge and dispose of the powdered particles) I positioned one bag atop each litter box against the wall. I didn't "charge" them in the sun first as some people did, but I am amazed at difference these little rocks make. The first few days I noticed a sort of...clay-like (?) smell when I would leave the apartment and come back home, but the litter box odor was gone. Either I've gotten used to the clay smell, or it just went away because now, 2 weeks later I don't smell it anymore. Now I can let guests use the restroom and not feel embarrassed about the smell. And I don't smell the litter box first thing when I walk in the door after work. Very much recommend for cat lovers. I ordered a couple more (from another listing, because it was listed at a cheaper price) to use in my linen cabinet because the pressed board shelves are old and have a musty smell underneath the paint that I can't get rid of. I'll update when I know how it works for that. I hope these really last a few years, as they claim. I don't know how or why they work, but they're quite genius. P.S. While I was able to find another listing that was a few dollars cheaper after buying these, I feel the $9 per bag price I paid was worth it for what it does. I don't feel bad about paying that price, but if I can easily save money then I absofreakinlutely will.

I bought similar product from lee valley tools decades ago in a smaller mesh packet but the mesh is now falling apart so I bought these to replace it as the ones from lee valley are not available now. I was very glad to get the new ones however the bag they were in was so full of stone dust I immediately took them to the basement laundry tubs to rinse it all out. There was a-lot I hope that wasn't part of the weight for the bags . Even now there is still some under size bits of rock that works its way out of the mesh bags which I am not happy about . I never had these issues with the ones I got from lee valley. While I am glad to have the rocks because I know they work well and last a long time I am disappointed with there quality of manufacture

Bought this for my car as it smelt like a bit gross and moldy. Still can smell the grossness might have help a bit tho. Might help for minor smells.
