Hello Friend! Everything You Need to Know About Poo-Pourri

Have you ever wondered if Poo-Pourri is really just essential oils in a bottle? As your resident home improvement guru, let me walk you through everything you need to know about this bathroom staple.

A Quick Intro to Poo-Pourri

In short, Poo-Pourri is way more than just essential oils! It‘s a proprietary blend of natural ingredients that work together to eliminate bathroom odors at the source. But let‘s take a deeper look at what makes Poo-Pourri so effective.

The Key Ingredients in Poo-Pourri

While essential oils are certainly important, Poo-Pourri contains a blend of several natural odor fighters:

Essential Oils

• Eucalyptus, lemon, bergamot, citronella – provide aromatic properties

Other Oils and Fragrances

• Coconut oil, soybean oil, fragrances – leave a pleasant scent

Water

• Purified water acts as the carrier for essential oils

Natural Minerals

• Magnesium hydroxide absorbs odors

Organic Acids

• Citric acid from citrus fruits is an odor neutralizer and preservative

So you see, it‘s really the synergy of these ingredients working together that gives Poo-Pourri its magical deodorizing powers. Pretty cool, right?

And this natural formula is septic and sewer safe too. The essential oils used in Poo-Pourri are expertly blended to trap odors without damaging plumbing.

Using Essential Oils as a DIY Poo-Pourri

You can absolutely make your own homemade Poo-Pourri with essential oils! Here are a few easy recipes to try:

Using Poo-Pourri Around Pets

I know many homeowners have concerns about using Poo-Pourri around their furry friends. Here‘s what you need to know:

• Poo-Pourri is non-toxic for pets when used properly
• Avoid spraying directly on pets as oils may irritate skin
• Rinse floors/surfaces after use in pet areas
• Use unscented or mild scented formulas around pets
• Spot test on small area first to check for irritation
• Ask your vet if you have any concerns

So while Poo-Pourri is designed to be safe, take some extra precautions when pets are involved. Your fur babies will thank you!
