Best stuff for neutralising urine smell on tarmac?

Due to house layout we have to take the puppy outside on our drive to wee first thing and last.

Obviously this smells.

We have pressure washed and that helped but I'm after advice on how to remove odour daily? I've tipped soapy water over before we go out etc, but could do with a longer term solution.

Not using this spot is not an option at the moment until puppy fully toilet trained.

I’ve got artificial grass and have tried many, many options. Best I’ve found is zoflora, the pet odour remover one. I dilute a small amount in a watering can, and keep it handy so I can water the wee as soon as they do it. Doesn’t smell at all now. Well, it smells of zoflora, but that’s preferable to stale urine 😂

Thanks I'll have a look for that.
I do love Zoflora!

We struggled with this with our old boy. We found that bio washing liquid worked well.
I tipped out a solution in the evening and left it to stand, then rinsed it before he went out in the morning.
I found zoflora masked the smell. The wee smell seemed to really penetrate the concrete 🤢

I use Virkon - you can get from Amazon and agricultural suppliers.

It stops the smell completely, the powder is easy to dilute in water, and it's cheaper than Zoflora.

Zoflora is harmful to the environment, don't use it!!!

I second any professional kennel cleaner.

I've not heard of Zirkon. Will have a look.

Thanks for the suggestions.

I mean Virkon 🤦🏻‍♀️

Zirkon is a fictional hybrid with Zoflora!

Not zoflora. Can you out down a puppy pad?

Floralnomad · 07/07/2022 20:07

Our dog pees / poos on one of our our patios and I keep a watering can with diluted dettol in and just wash down with that , works fine

White wine vinegar

Mrsjayy · 08/07/2022 16:32

I was just away to say white vinegar I used to use the common variety in a bucket of soapy water to through over our paths. Don't use zoflora it's a toxin

You are brave. Admitting to artificial grass AND zoflora on Mumsnet 😂
