OdorBan - the cheapest bathroom deoderizer

Sam's Club sells a product called ODORBAN in concentrated form.  It is a disinfectant and deoderizer as well.  You can mix it in varying strengths for different purposes.  A gallon of the concentrate sells for $9.99 (approx.).  It smells like eucalptus (msp? too lazy to ck spelling).

I have used this for the past three months and mix up a gallon using the concentrate.  Then I fill up an old AquaMist deoderizer bottle and WHAM, I am set for a week or more, then refill for the mixed gallon again.  TheAquaMist bottle dispenses the deoderizer in a fine enough spray that the floor isn't wet nor any other surfaces.  To be blunt, I spray inside the toilet directly since afterall that is where the ODOR I am fighting is coming from - makes sense to me.  The product says it kills the germs that cause the odor, not just masking the odor. 

You can't beat the price.  And I don't mind mixing it up at all.  Since it kills germs, I use it all over the bathroom when cleaning (countertop, bathtub, etc. ).

Anyone else use this?

PS:  I am also using a small squirt bottle of bleach to fight the dreaded ORANGE Stuff.  Just a squirt and it all disappears without having a toilet brush that looks orange.  YUK and TMI, right !? 

I used to use Odorban, when I had a Sam's Club membership... I LOVED the way it smelled!!

Might have to find someone with a membership because I think that will work amazing in the bathroom come to think of it..

As far as the orange stuff goes... I've only had one episode of orange stuff... and it was droplets... that was the morning after I ate Brok's pizza for dinner... Is that good, bad, or indifferent??

Odoban is also carried at Walmart. Not sure if they have the concentrate, but they do sell a small squirt bottle. $10 for the gallon of concentrate, which then makes numerous regular strength gallons, is the WAY TO GO.

Ooooo, I have to get some of this....I've been looking for something with eucalyptus - it always smells fresh to me! 

Ok I am pre opt and plan to have DS surgery first of year.  Can you please tell me what the ORANGE stuff is and how often it happens.

Orange stuff is usually called "oil slicks". I love them because they make me know my DS is really working (malabsorbing fat). They are just obvious oil floating on the top of the toile****er. Some can be thicker and orange but mine are very thin and yellowish now. Nothing to worry about.

I use it but I didn't read the directions and have been using it full strength. haha. Next time I'll dilute it and save some dough.

I think it works fine.

 
Sounds great!  I love the smell of eucalyptus!!

Now....who do I know that has a Sam's membership?  :-)

I gotta grin here.....At home I use this thing called a candle and an occasional squirt of Lysol. On the road I carry a .5 oz bottle of citrus essential oil for bathrooms, and a tiny spray bottle of Ozium or a Bath and Body Works spray for a non bathroom slip of odor.

We have a septic tank and my hubby is very particular about the chemicals that get flushed here. We had to have our entire drain field replaced and a new one put in. I wish we had city sewer so I didn't have to worry about bleach and other stuff like this going in the tank. Just something to consider if anyone else has a septic tank. You can really mess up your system with a lot of chemicals.
