Odors in cars

Seems like dealing with the most violent members of society and their  victims might have something to do with it. Especially those brave soles that work the night shift where sex, drugs, alcohol, weapons and bad tempers all come together in a nasty and dangerous mixture.

It’s really not a pretty picture but one that is played out every night of the week in big cities and backwater hamlets. You have to wonder what motivates them to go to work each day to face the never ending abuse and violence.

Just arresting a violent drunk can be a pretty nasty job. Just getting the person in hand cuffs can be pretty challenging and dangerous. After all, they can head butt, bite, or kick you inflicting potentially life threatening injures.

Once they are in the back of the patrol car, there is no limit to  what will happen. The most common with drunks is they vomit and urinate all over the back of the car, bang their head on the windows or the barrier and get blood contaminated with who knows what all over the place.

Needless to say, the back of a patrol car is not a nice place to be and often the front isn’t much better.

Standard procedure is to hose out the back of the car and return it to service as quickly as possible. But that rarely eliminates the nasty odors that linger on for hours and some times days. What would you do if your work station smelled of urine and vomit? I’ll bet it would not make your day a pleasant one. In fact, it might make you pretty unhappy, irritable, and over all hard to get along with.

So what can the average patrol officer do about the smell?  It’s simple, spray the back of the patrol car with OdorXit Magic. Just 5 or 10 pumps of the mist sprayer will eliminate the odor in seconds.

Why wouldn’t the police department motor pool do this when cleaning out the back of the car? That is a really good question. The answer I get most of the time when talking to the officer in charge of the motor pool is; they have no money for this kind of trivia. TRIVIA!!! I think the motor pool officer’s office should be sprayed with vomit and urine and see how trivial the odor really is!

OdorXit Magic’s retail price is $15 per bottle and each bottle has about 1600 pumps in it.  That less than 1 cent per pump and 10 or 20 pumps will do the job.  When purchased in quantities of just 20 bottles the case pricing is considerably less.

What can you do the make this situation better?  Buy a bottle of OdorXit Magic and give it to your neighbor who is a patrol officer and make his month or 2 a lot better. Word of mouth is the best way to solve this problem beyond demonstrating how well the product actually works.

We in the USA have certainly gotten a large dose of storms and hurricanes and the associated damage this year (2008). And as a result of the damage over the past few years, storm, flood and hurricane insurance has become so expensive that the average person in the areas where this kind of insurance is needed can barely be afforded it if the can even get it.

FEMA has been pushed to the limit and the American taxpayer is getting pretty tired of their tax money being spent on disaster relief for the same people over and over again.  In the past when there was no FEMA people depended on each other to exact disaster relief.

After the great San Francisco fire in the 1800s there was almost nothing left of that great city. But, it was rebuilt by the people who wanted a city by the bay with no help from federal or state government at all.

In many areas of this great rural country, when a barn is destroyed by a fire or tornado, the neighbors just show up with hammers, nails, wood, ladders, food and enthusiasm to build another barn. Granted, with  insurance to cover the loss and reconstruction this happens far too infrequently. But if insurance rates continue to spiral out of control, it will not be long before neighbors helping neighbors will become a much more normal occurrence.

Recovering from the damage dished out by the various spring time storms and hurricanes that have visited the USA and Caribbean is an expensive, time consuming and difficult process. In the past tens of thousands of refrigerators and freezers were simply thrown away because they smelled so bad from being without power and full of spoiled food.

Even houses that did not get flooded but were without power and air conditioning for days are often damaged by mold growing on everything. Untold millions of dollars worth of furniture, furnishings and clothing heave been thrown out because they were covered with mold. Just getting rid of the mold growing on the walls is a difficult and dangerous task that can result in a life time of health problems brought on by short term high level exposure to mold exposure during remediation efforts and long term low level exposure to mold growing in and under houses that the remediation effort was less than completely successful.

There are now several new products on the market that kill mold. There is one that kills mold, spores, bacteria, viruses, and many odors as well called OdorXit ClO2. You may want to try this product because the house your save from mold may be your own.
