Does this product cause urine to smell like ammonia?

I haven't noticed this nor have I noticed that yellowing of urine that lots of vitamins cause.

I have been using this product for months, and it always has the same strange odor. I have not had any problems with the product.

We've had our litter system for quite awhile and the liners have never altered the color of the urine. You might need to have the kitten checked out. I hope everything is okay.

It'll still taste and smell like pee, it won't remove the urea which is a dissolved chemical and what makes pee taste and smell like pee. Contrary to the prior answer, it also won't remove the smallest infectious particles which are viruses.

No. I bought two things of shake away because of rats and it did absolutely nothing except smell like pee. I hear it works for others. But definitely did not work for my rat problem.

The stain and smell I dealt with was from cat urine and I did have success using this product. In fact, I bought a bunch of cans after the first use, in part because I was happy with the product, also because I was going to need more. I would encourage a purchase of a can to see if you like it.

There are no ingredients listed on the label. It smells like fox urine. We are going to use it as an attempt to keep rodents from our garden by spraying small clay flower pots with it then placing them around the garden every couple feet. For groundhogs, we are smoke bombing the holes and then placing pieces of broken clay flower pots sprayed in fox or coyote urine in the holes.

I don't recall any offensive smell with mine, maybe a new/or packaged smell but once it was out of the box and assembled, it was fine. I believe this is a great product and the answer to all of the kitty litter problems I had previously experienced.

This is what the Natures Miracle folks say, "Unfortunately the stains will always show with a black light. The ammonia in the urine permanently damages the carpet fibers. Once damaged, a black light will always show the discoloration caused by the stain. A stain that has been cleaned will appear duller when exposed to a black light than an untreated stain." It can't be seen without a black light and there will be no odor.

Ammonium is a form of ammonia so there is a bit of a ammonia smell when you open the bottle but that's it. There is no smell from the tank if it is being cycled properly. Your birds will be fine with the product as long as you don't leave the cap off the bottle.

It does initially. In my case, my new bottle smelled like rubber for less than a week and then the smell disappeared as I used it regularly. But its not unbearable super strong rubber stench. well, I'm on to my second one, that says something. :)

I have had the same problem with the weird sticky feel. Also, it didnt fully take away the urine odor, even after cleaning the carpet. Only thin that actually stopped the urine odor was another spray product that eliminates odor. It was either febreez or renuzit

I did not notice the odor and it does not smell now. I know what you are talking about though and have found if you have a product that smells like this leave it in a sealed container for a couple days with a small bowl of baking soda.

Yup, totally normal. The part of cat pee that fluoresces is phosphate and, as far as I know, has no smell in and of itself. You might notice that laundry/dish soaps often fluoresce, because they also contain phosphates.

Not that I am aware of. I have been using this item for years with no problems. Maybe the smell is from the plastic.

Per their website, this product contains no active ammonia. I dispute the "most people". I didn't care--I just wanted a better cleaner for tinted auto glass, my flat-screen, and my computer monitor.--and one that worked to remove the junk and not streak. This product works.

I did not have your experience. My Sleepypod did not have any "chemical" smell.
