Clean+Greensent me several cleaners from their line to use and review. Since I have two inside dogs - Jack Russell terriers - we deal with "accidents" and smelly dogs often. I told Clean + Green I was interested in their cleaners because they told me they would clean the area AND remove the odor when my pups made a mess. But, I was pleasantly surprised when I found out that these cleaners would also remove other kinds of messes and odors! These are great from ANYONE - pets or no pets! And, even better... they are safe for pets and kids because they are non-toxic and eco-friendly!

My favorite of the cleaners was the Furniture Refresher. This is because it is not only great for removing pet odors from the house and the furniture, it is also great for removing those stinky smells from the diaper pail and clothes hamper. It also gets rid of stinky smells from the trashcan and if you are a smoker, it gets rid of those areas where smoke lingers too.

One tip that I absolutely loved and would have never known to do is that if you have a lingering odor in your home that just won't go away you can take out the filter from your HVAC system and turn on the fan and set the system to heat. Then, locate the return vent and spray the Furniture Refresher or the Auto Odor Eliminator on the return vent and allow the system to run about 5 minutes. This will get the product spread throughout the home/room and eliminate those lingering odors.

The Carpet and Upholstery Odor Eliminator, Cleaner, and Stain Remover is great to remove my pups mistakes from the carpet in the bedrooms - it can clean all the way to the carpet pad and sub floor! It gets rid of the stains AND the icky smells! One tip they shared with me is that you must spray the cleaner in a larger area than just the area where the yucky stuff was deposited! This is because it soaks and spreads wider underneath the carpet.

There are several other great cleaners for every area of your home, they include:

• Carpet and Upholstery Eliminator, Cleaner, and Stain Remover
• Concrete Odor Eliminator, Cleaner, and Stain Remover
• Furniture Refresher
• Wood and Tile Odor Eliminator, Cleaner, and Stain Remover
• Auto Odor Eliminator, Cleaner, and Stain Remover
• De-Skunk Coat Cleaner Odor Eliminator and Cleaner

Clean+Green

is made with ingredients and materials that are all-natural, 100% biodegradable, and recyclable. That means that not only are you being eco-conscious in choosing Clean+Green, but you are also protecting your family and pets from harmful chemicals that can be found in other popular cleaning products.

Hey y'all. (No. I'm not Southern, but it sounded appropriate today. Not sure why...)

I'm raising my throbbing head from my pillow to let you all know about a product I recently reviewed. The words may not be nuggets of gold as my stomach AND head are equally battling for my attention, but the products are definitely worth considering.

SeaYu is a company that provides eco-friendly cleaning products for pet owners. I gratefully tested out their litter box odor eliminator and, actually? It works. Really well, especially considering the fact that cleaning the litter box in our house is not at the top of our lists of "things to do before they get disgusting." Generally, our laundry room smells less than lovely. After spraying (and cleaning. Yuck.) I found that it didn't cover the scent up but eliminated it. It didn't smell all flowery and sickly sweet. The laundry room simply smelled like, well, AIR.

Browse around their site and check out the other products available. You can use this code CGB2009001 for $2.00 off any product!

Through the Mom Trials: We’ve been trying to go as green as we can and that includes taking care of pets and their odorific habits.  As much as I love them, I can’t stand some of the gross, smelly things they do that come along with them.  I have a very stubborn American bulldog who loves to get into anything he can find outside, including dead carcasses that leaves a horrible stink on our rug when he pukes and drools all over it.  It’s not very pleasant I tell you!  I managed to get the stain out of the rug, but the faint smell lingers.  Then he precedes to get his slobbery mouth all over our leather furniture and the slight stench is still present through my several attempts of using a variety of cleaners to get it out.  Then I got to try out a couple cleaners from Sea Yu’s Enterprises, Green + Clean line!

The Green + Clean Carpet & Upholstery cleaner and Furniture Refresher came to my aid!  Their strong acting, easy to use formula worked wonderfully to eliminate the smells and when I mean eradicate the odor, I mean it’s permanently gone.  Unlike a lot of other cleaners that promises to get rid of the smells and only masks the odor for a limited time, these cleaners eliminate it for good and leaves your rug and furniture smelling great!  I also like the fact it’s natural and safe for both my family and pets so I won’t have to worry that it’s harmful for their health.  These are all around wondeful products that I’m fully satisfied to use around my household and can’t wait to try out their other products!   If you’re dealing with a difficult to eradicate pet smell, try Green + Clean cleaners and you’ll be delightfully surprised at how powerful these green cleaners are!

Sea-Yu Clean+Green For Your Pets
by Kailani April 15, 2009

With 2 indoor cats, sometimes things can get a little smelly around here. However, I’ve always been very cautious about using chemicals to eliminate odors for fear of harmful effects on everyone in the family . . . including those two felines. That’s why I was very interested in learning more about Sea-Yu Clean+Green.

COMPANY DESCRIPTION
At SeaYu, we love animals — and we care about the world we live in. But we know firsthand that every pet lover needs a quick, powerful and convenient solution to pet cleaning problems. That’s why we’ve carefully developed the safest, most effecitve, pet cleanup system you’ll find anywhere. Completely free of harsh chemicals — and personally tested in our own home. All natural. Fur friendly. Kid safe. And able to stand up to any pet cleanup challenge — even skunk.

MY REVIEW
Even skunk? Since my cats are not that bad I figured Sea-Yu would work wonders on our pet odors. And I was right! The Litter Box Odor Eliminator & Cleaners was amazing. Our litter box is in an pretty small enclosed area so the smell can bet pretty bad sometimes. As soon as I sprayed on the Clean+Green the odor immediately disappeared. The great thing is that it wasn’t just one scent covering up another one. There was truly a clean smelling atmosphere! I even sprayed it on the nearby wall and it didn’t stain or leave any residue. It worked great!

To me, one of the worst smells in the world is cat urine or cat spray on the carpet. It’s one of the toughest smells to get rid of and it makes me nauseous just thinking about it! The Carpet & Upholstery Cleaner is designed to solve that problem.

“Accelerating nature’s very own process of biodegradation without any polymers or artificial bacteria, the patented process encapsulates the source of the problem, and continues working until the source of the problem is completely eliminated.”

So if you have pets, do yourself, your family, and the environment a favor by checking out Sea-Yu Clean+Green for all your household cleaning needs.

The Only Eco-Friendly Aerosol Pet Cleaning Products on the Planet!

April 22, 2009

SeaYu has announced the launch of Clean+Green, the only eco-friendly aerosol pet cleaning products on the planet. Unlike most other cleaning products that can be harmful, require multiple applications and/or only temporarily mask odours, Clean + Green delivers instant results in a non-toxic, eco-friendly solution. Clean+Green permanently cleans pet stains and eradicates odours. It is safe for pets, people (kids too!), and the planet.

Each Clean+Green product is individually formulated to address a specific odour/stain problem and can be used on carpet and area rugs, wood floors, tile, cement and all fabrics – even litter boxes! Clean+Green uses a patented Advanced Encapsulation Technology and an Advanced Eliminator3 Formula, developed by scientists to take care of the planet while cleaning up massive environmental problems like oil spills. The products naturally encapsulate and eliminate stain and odour on contact – even skunk odour! – by naturally biodegrading the stain/odour source.

“Many people are aware of the potential health risks of using traditional cleaning products and air fresheners in the home. Pets breath the same air we do, and are just as vulnerable to the negative effects of harsh cleaning chemicals as we are,” said Dennis Seaman, VP of Sales & Marketing of SeaYu. “Our all-natural and patented formula is high performance and safe for use around all members of the family.”

Clean+Green is made with ingredients and materials that are all-natural, 100% biodegradable, and recyclable. The products are non-toxic, non-flammable, non-carcinogenic and will not damage the ozone layer – with no harsh chemicals or perfumes. The eco-friendly aerosol applicator ensures easy and quick application with maximum performance.

Clean+Green is available at PETCO, PetSmart, and other retailers that sell pet specialty products in Canada, as well as through the Clean+Green site.

Pet Product Review - CLEAN+GREEN by SeaYu The Only Eco-Friendly Aerosol Pet Cleaning Product

April 22, 2009

Ok, today is Earth Day!!! Happy Earth Day! I'm in beautiful California where the weather is just gorgeous and I can't think of a better day to help SeaYu launch their new line of odor and stain aerosol cleaning products called CLEAN+GREEN.

The people at CLEAN+GREEN sent me some samples, so I was really glad to test them out in time for Earth Day, but also to help me clean up after that little minature Pinscher house guest I had the other week.  You may remember, the one that pee'd all over my oriental rugs.  Ok, I'm venting... but the timing was perfect.

Now, as you know every pet household must have cleaning products in their house to combat the occassional accidents and mishaps.  Even, Champ, my perfect little Sheltie had one the other day on the wood floor. Now my position is if you're going to buy anything, especially cleaning, disposible, waste bags, or such, try your very hardest to make sure it's eco-friendly and biodegradable.  Well finally we have an aerosol product that is.  But, I'm not a scientist that can prove this, I leave this up to the people at SeaYu.

As for the products, yes they are great.  When you use CLEAN+GREEN, you can tell the odor is removed without any perfumes or chemicals.  Its kind of weird, its more of an odor eraser. I did use it on the rug that my minature house guest wet, and I can say that the odor is gone.  Unfortunately, the stain was in the rug so long that that dye of the rug did change slightly (only I can tell).  So, CLEAN+GREEN Rug cleaner is not going to do miracles. 

Now on the wood floor, I used the CLEAN+GREEN for a more solid mess-up.  After good old water and a bit of soap, I used the CLEAN+GREEN for wood floors.  I sprayed it on and let it sat, and low and behold, no smell or residue.  Usually I pour tons of oil soap all over the floor, and then furniture polish make it shine.  CLEAN+GREEN is a lot less.

Which brings me to another point I like, you don't need tons and tons of product to make it work.  A few sprays.  Not like some "miracle" products that require a full saturation and even then may take up to two weeks to work.  Please, what a waste.

Anyway, I really liked the CLEAN+GREEN products that were sent to me for rugs, furniture and for wood floors.  I hope they send me more samples as they grow their line.  But until then, you can get CLEAN+GREEN at www.PetFoodDirect.com:

I liked the litter box tip best. Our basement always smells because of the box.

April 11, 2009 2:32 PM

I will be honest....

If we didn't have one animal loving little girl in our household that BEGGED and PLEADED for a pet then we probably wouldn't have one at all. Ok, WE WOULDN'T HAVE ONE!

I was never an animal lover. I mean they are OK and everything but I have three kids and a husband to clean up after. I didn't need another mess to clean up, kwim?

Needless to say, the big girl asked for a few years and we finally gave in a couple of years ago for her birthday.
(Yep, we made her wait that long 'cuz I am mean like that.)  She asked for a cat so we went to the local animal shelter and rescued Mew.

In all honesty, we got lucky with Mew. She was litter trained (Thank GOD!), she only wants to eat cat food, and she is great with the kids. The only flaw MEW has is . . . .HAIR BALLS!

I never knew what hair balls were until Mew came along. I mean sure, I have heard of them but had no clue what to expect.
I will save you the icky details and just say that I AM HAIR BALL AWARE now!  And when she has those "hair balls", she doesn't run to the toilet or litter box she lets them go right on my floor. . .MY CARPETED FLOOR.

If you knew me personally then you would know that I go crazy over any type of stain on my carpet.

• STAINS EMBARRASS ME.
• STAINS PREVENT ME FROM INVITING PEOPLE OVER TO MY HOUSE (or at least that's my story and I am sticking to it)

I am proud to say that I no longer have to deal with hair ball stained carpet thanks to Clean + Green.

About Clean + Green : Clean + Green is the only eco-friendly aerosol pet cleaning products on the planet. Unlike most other cleaning products that can be harmful, require multiple applications and/or only temporarily mask odors, Clean + Green delivers instant results in a non-toxic, eco-friendly solution.

The products naturally encapsulate and eliminate stain and odor on contact – even skunk odor! – by naturally biodegrading the stain/odor source.

I actually got to properly "review" this product as soon as it arrived.  I sprayed the "stain" and walked away. How simple was that? There is no scrubbing involved, no vacuuming, and NO WORRY! I came back to the "stained area" about 30-40 minutes and it was gone. I actually had a hard time finding the spot that I treated.

My thoughts: LOVE THIS!  I also love the fact that it eliminates all odors.  A little side note: It takes care of "human" odors too! The lil princess had a mild "accident" the other day and I was curious so I sprayed Clean + Green and it WORKED!

This product is a MUST-BUY for anyone with pets.

Would you like to try Clean + Green?  I am giving it away! All you have to do is visit http://sea-yu.com/ and check out their HOW TO section.

Do you remember my mentioning our 15yr old Beagle Buddy in my review about the Clean + Green Carpet & Upholstery Cleaner? Well, it's about time I introduced him to you officially. Meet Buddy . . .



He is elderly and arthritic, but generally still in good health. I think Buddy should be the Clean + Green dog. He makes enough messes to keep the company afloat all by himself. Some days his arthritis is worse and he doesn't feel like moving until he really gets the urge to go. Then he can't make it on time. He also goes through periods of a couple of days where everything he eats and drinks comes back up. He is not discriminating about where he makes his messes. Nope, Buddy is an equal-opportunity soiler . . . wood floors, upholstery, even his own dog bed.

I was so impressed by the first Clean + Green product I tried, that I was so thrilled when I was asked to experience two additional products. The wonderful part about Clean + Green is that it is odorless and it also eliminates odors very effectively by encapsulating the odor causing particles.

Have you ever cleaned up a pet mess and noticed afterwards that you could still smell that mess? That happens in our house quite often. Well, two days after I received the Dog Wood & Tile cleaner, I got a chance to put it to the ultimate test. Buddy vomited on our hardwood floors. It was the most foul-smelling thing I have ever had the misfortune of smelling. If I didn't watch him throw up, I would have thought that the mess had come out the other end. I grabbed the Clean + Green, but I was skeptical. That is how badly the floor smelled after I had cleaned up the mess.

The second product I received was the Litter Box Odor Eliminator & Cleaner. We have four cats and three litter boxes. No matter how much we scoop and sprinkle baking soda deodorizer, you just cannot walk into our house without knowing that we have cats.

Product Review: Clean+Green Carpet Upholstery Spray

April 10, 2009 by Dan

With 2 dogs and 4 cats in my house, messes happen. Upset stomachs, fur balls - you name it, it has graced the floors and furniture at some point throughout the years. These days, the most common mess around here is Lucian slobber. He’s a giant dog and he loves to put his face on things. This wouldn’t be a cause for panic, except most times he puts his face on the couch - right after a meal. His drool is a viscous conduit for residue from his food and leaves large spots where his jowls hit the upholstery. Not pleasant. Of course, you can’t get mad at him - those lips are part of his charm.

I recently received a container of Clean + Green Carpet and Upholstery cleaner. As a huge fan of eco-friendly products, I was excited to try it out (expect to see a lot more about “green” products in the near future).

Why We Like It:

* I loathe bottles of cleaners that have pumps that stop working, or the ones that you have to pull trigger 20 times to start the stream. The Clean + Green has a continuous, nitrogen powered, forceful spray (but doesn’t contain any CFC) that allows you to cover the affected area easily.

* I’ve tested other cleaners that literally bleached a layer of skin off of my hands (they never made it to the blog for obvious reasons). This spray is natural and didn’t feel like burning when I got it on my hands. Obviously a gentle cleaner is better for everyone in the house.

* The product isn’t just a stain remover, but also a cleaner and an odor eliminator. Most products I’ve found that advertise “odor elimination” just cover it up with another scent. Clean + Green doesn’t smell like *anything* - it took the doggy smell out of the spots on our couch and left no trace scent.

* I didn’t have to use elbow grease. I just got up most of the “chunks” (ew) and then sprayed the spot until it was damp. Then you let it dry (this took a while) - I was amazed that 90% of the stain was gone. I sprayed some more on and let it dry. I couldn’t find the stain the next day.

I’m betting this product will work well on muddy paw prints this upcoming Spring. I’d suggest you puppy owners stocking up!  A cleaning product
