Odor eliminator

What is an odor eliminator?

An odor eliminator is any home cleaning product or tool used to eliminate odors from a home, office, or auto setting.

Most frequently, odor eliminators take the form of an odor eliminator spray, usually in a 4-32 oz plastic container. (Odor Exorcism, on the other hand, only comes in infinitely recyclable glass.)

An example of a non-spray odor eliminator tool (or machine) might include something like the Villa 3000 from Odor Free.

Is an air freshener the same thing as an odor eliminator?

No, an air freshener is not necessarily a true odor eliminator.

While it could safely be said that any product that effectively removes odors from the air, surfaces, fabrics, or other textiles does indeed freshen the air, the opposite can’t necessarily be said.

The category of products called air fresheners often times focus their function on adding nice-smelling aromas to the air in an attempt to mask whatever foul odors exist in a space.

Absolutely not.

On the contrary, most odor eliminator products contain lots of synthetic ingredients—from fragrance chemicals to emulsifiers, to surfactants, it’s actually quite difficult to formulate a perfectly natural odor eliminator spray or product.

Odor Exorcism is the exception.

Odor Exorcism’s entire lineup of products is natural. Our OG natural odor eliminator spray, for example, comprises only 10 ingredients, all of which are naturally derived. (It’s kinda our thing.)

It depends.

Broad use odor eliminator sprays, like Odor Exorcism, aren’t necessarily intended for a specific application, like getting rid of smoke odor or cat urine odors on rugs and carpets.

On the contrary, (like most other odor eliminator spray producers) we’ve done our best to formulate a broadly useful, practical odor eliminator that can handle most foul odors likely to be found in a home, car, or office setting. These include—but are not limited to—methane releases from human beings, sweaty shoes or clothes, remnants of refuse in garbage cans, and so on.

Unlike most other odor eliminator sprays, Odor Exorcism accomplishes all this without resorting to synthetic fragrance petrochemicals.

Some odor eliminators are quite specific in their uses.

There are odor eliminator products with hyper-specific use cases. Odor eliminators for cat urine almost always include enzymes which are scientifically engineered to counteract the ammonia and crystals contained within cat pee.

Likewise, smoke odor eliminators are specifically formulated to combat the odor left by cigarette smoke—and not much else.

Without question, the best way to truly remove any kind of odor is to remove the material which is causing it. There isn’t an odor eliminator in Heaven or on Earth that can compete with the satanic scents emitted by poop, pee, rotting melon, or rancid vegetables.
