Do you all think that these methods would work for removing the odor of cat urine? We have a child whose belongings reek of it and, if her library books stay home for more than an overnight, they also reek. If you have any suggestions, I would appreciate them. ~Molly >>> sandra carswell <sandracarswell@HOTMAIL.COM> 10/10/05 10:36 PM >>> My original post was asking for advice on removing cigarette odor from books donated for hurricane relief. I want to thank everyone who gave me tips and tricks for removing odors from books. The most recommended procedures were: let them air out in the sun stand the book on end with the pages fanned out and place a fan on it put them in a plastic bag with baking soda, charcoal, kitty litter, or fabric softener sheets, remove and replace every couple of days or use Fabreze Most of these procedures would probably be good if I only had a few books to handle. Since there is a box full, I've decided to discard the books. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Molly Clark Intermediate Librarian Michael Maroun Elementary School Phoenix, NY mclark2@phoenix.k12.ny.us "When the going gets tough, the tough get a librarian."
