    I dunno about odor hiding it. We have two dogs, one of which sleeps
on the couch. I try to keep a blanket on there for him, but if I
forget, the couch can get a little doggie. This stuff really seems to
make it go away, and not just mask it, like some other products I've
tried. < http://tinymicros.com/gallery/pets/dsc00025 >

    Stain removers are a good example of products that are junk. I have
get to find on that permanently removes the ever-so-occasional carpet
accident. The stain goes away for a month or two, but then it comes
back, fairly faintly. Repeated applications seem to have little long
term effect. We've tried about 6 different ones, and I am seriously
unimpressed. Oxyclean, some pink stuff, enzyme based removers... Junk!
