BON Guide for Carpet Care 

Spray Dilution Rate:

There is a variable range for dilution depending upon the severity of mal-odor.  The variable range is 1 to 1 part, 1 to 2 parts, or 1 to 3 parts water.  This rate is for BON Concentrate. 

Fog Dilution Rate:

The variable range is 2 oz. to 4 oz. BON per gallon of water depending on severity of mal-odor. 

Shampoo and/or Rinse Solution:

The variable range is ½ oz. to 4 oz. BON per gallon of water or cleaning solution.

General Directions 

1. Spray surface of carpet through a pump spray using spray dilution rate suggested above, then proceed to clean carpets in normal fashion adding BON concentrate to the shampoo and/or rinse solution (see above).

2. In the event of residual mal-odor, fog BON concentrate using fog dilution rate suggested above, through a cold aerosol type portable fogger.

3. Should residual mal-odor be present, locate urine spotted areas and make topical application of BON concentrating using the spray dilution rate suggested above.

Objective 

To increase profit by saving labor costs and to determine the most economical dilution rate for BON concentrate without extending the drying time, we recommend the above sequence, however, if mal-odor is not indicated by a close inspection of a suspect wet spot after step 1, omit step 2. 

In many cases it will not be necessary to lift the carpet and treat the under padding and/or sub flooring.  Before expending this labor, dampen odor spot area with BON concentrate and using a sponge, work the product into the carpet.  An alternative is to inject with a syringe. 

BON concentrate will not damage the ionic properties of carpets.  With natural fiber oriental rugs, test with BON concentrate on a small, unnoticeable section, and if the result is satisfactory, proceed with the cleaning process.  We recommend that only professionals trained in cleaning oriental carpets attempt to use BON concentrate.  In many cases, it is possible through BON use to restore an odor-polluted rug to its potential market value. 

Final Touch 

Change the air condition filter and spray the air condition intake with BON concentrate.

BON Guide For Home Health Care 

Ostomy Patients:       Put 1 teaspoon of BON inside pouch after emptying.  Spray into the air as needed. 

Excreta:                      Spray the bedpan before and after each use. 

Vomit:                         Clean-up solids and liquids then spray BON                                     directly onto the surfaces. 

Decomposition

Odors:                        Spray bed linen, bed throw covers, mattress cover and curtains.  

Room Odors:            Spritz BON onto curtains and/or carpet.  Make a wick by stuffing cotton/tissue in a paper cup, then saturate with BON.  BON also neutralizes cigarette odors. 

Restrooms:                Spray underside of toilet seats and floor in front of toilet units.  Spray vanity surfaces.  Use ½ oz. BON concentrate per gallon of wet mop rinse solution.  (For best residual effect, do not spray onto surfaces that are water flushed.) 

Carpet Odors:           For urine (human or pet), saturate the carpet and pad with full strength BON concentrate.  If the odor is acute, clean thoroughly using a non-perfumed carpet cleaner.  Add BON concentrate to final rinse ½ - 2 oz. per gallon (depending on severity of the odor).  For minor problems, spritz BON concentrate directly onto the carpet. 

Hard Floors:              Add ½ oz. BON concentrate per gallon of wet mop solution.

Laundry:                     Spray into drying cycle to remove any residual odors in bed linens, towels, clothing, etc. 

Air Conditioning

Systems/Humidifiers:  Spritz into intake or return filter to neutralize odor throughout the system or place a one-gallon wick behind the intake grill or use a humidifier to dispense BON (undiluted to 1 part BON with 30 parts water). 

House Pets:               If your pet has an odor problem, use BON for safe odor elimination.  BON is non-toxic and complete safe for pets and people. 

Animal’s Body:          BON can be safely sprayed directly onto the pet (avoid the eyes).  BON even controls estrus odors. 

Pet Sleep Area:        Spritz cushions and pads with BON.  For carpets and hard floors- see above. 

Kitty Litter:                 Spray five or six puffs of BON directly onto the kitty litter daily. 

Cages, Kennels

& Carriers:                 Spray inside of cages after cleaning, use 2 oz. BON concentrate per gallon of cleaning solution.

BON Guidelines for Pet Care

If your pet has an odor problem, use BON for safe odor elimination.  BON is non-toxic, and completely safe for pets and people.  BON even neutralizes skunk odors instantly! 

Clinic:                         BON will take care of odor problems such as parvo, expressing anal glands, and “bitch cycles”; spray into the air or directly onto the coat of the animal where the odor is originating.  (Do not spray into the eyes.) 

Grooming:                  Mix BON with non-perfumed shampoo or rinse water (2 oz. per gallon of water).  Spritz the animal with BON after dipping.  One or two puffs will do. 

Kitty Litter:                  Spray five or six puffs of BON directly onto the kitty litter daily. 

Cages, Kennels

Hard Floors:              Add 2 oz. of BON per gallon of mop water, after four days, reduce to ½ oz per gallon. 

Carpet:                       For urine (human or pets), saturate the carpet and pad in the immediate area with full strength BON concentrate.  If odor is acute, clean thoroughly using a non-perfumed carpet cleaner.  Add BON concentrate to final rinse ½ to 2 oz. per gallon (depending upon the severity of the odor).  For minor problems, spritz BON concentrate directly on the carpet. 

Wick:                          Cut the top from a one-gallon jug of BON.  Insert a roll of paper towels and saturate with BON.
