Well, obviously, if my moniker is mommacat I must like cats right? Yep.
Many people, however, do not like cats and I can’t say as how I blame them. Irresponsible pet owners that allow their unfixed felines to roam about the neighborhood willy nilly are JERKS. Did you know that cats are extremely sensitive to smells? Yep, they are. And, they particularly
HATE the scent of Citrus (like orange) and scientists are still trying to figgure out why. This knowledge could come in handy if, say, you know someone who is sick and tired of discovering their car covered with little dusty puddy-paw-prints every morning. Or a Mrs. Feeney type who wants to keep Garfield and his friends from using the flower bed as a litter box. There are people who buy expensive weather/rot resistant pads for their patio furniture and to “fluffy” it looks just like a scratching
post……Anything Orange scented is a natural, non-toxic, cruelty free
cat repellant. I do not know if it also works on deer, but maybe it does.
Do you have a need for this application? Another way you could use it is if you put it in a spray bottle and sprayed it on a window screen, or the
curtains; with every breeze that comes thru you’d get a little bonus.

I like the idea of ironing scents but be careful that the colours are not effected! I tend to use scented liquids mixed with water, in a hand pump bottle and sprayed on the carpet of the car. Usually last thing at night so you are greeted by the scent when you next use the car.

you caould also cut a piece of cotton fabric or even use a facecloth saturate either with your scented water toss into clothes dryer and your laundry smells wonderful.

If you have a garden fountain you can add it to the water or may be you can use it in the dishwasher machine..

Thank you for the creative suggestions! I really like the ironing idea, would never have thought about it. Sadly I don’t have a bathtub, just a shower…

Pop some with some water into your iron when you iron your clothes and they will smell nice!

Just add it to your laundry water and your whole wash will smell good.
