Kitty litter. Put some inside and put the bag in a sealed container with kitty litter on the bottom. Linda C

Thanks everyone! I put a large crumpling of newspaper in there and left it for the past three weeks or so. I just removed the paper tonight, and I'd say 80-90% of the odor was literally transferred into the newspaper. It was pretty cool. But the odor is still slightly detectable in the container. So I might try throwing some coffee in there since I have an old packet of unused grounds that I won't be using to drink...

I don't know if it's true, but I heard Tide and Borax had the same detergent-boosting compound. Regardless, I react badly to both. I have a lot of allergies and sensitivities. I'm trying Oxy-Clean. It got most of the odor out of an impossible nylon/spandex blend. If it doesn't make me itch I'll use it on all my problem clothing. A word of advice: if you plan to try a new combination of chemicals, try it first on a single garment you can afford to lose. And someone said it but it bears repeating; never mix chlorine bleach with anything but plain old detergent. It could kill you.

I had to think about this for a while whether to post this or not. I decided to post anyway. Please, please, it is not my intention to preach or to denounce anyone. This is for information only, information which sometimes we donÂt think of. One of the really nasty thing that is happening is the way we throw away electronic equipment, especially serviceable equipment. Even you take them to legal recycling centers, somehow they all end up in third-world countries killing thousands of children every year, and messing up the environment for hundreds of years for all of us. It is not that difficult to take care some repair/maintenance problems. Besides saving time and money, you will be very proud that you have accomplished a task successfully. I always pick up computers on sidewalks which people threw out. Many reasons people throw computers out. Many times itÂs just very minor problems. Most of the time when people throw out computers, they take out the hard drive and memories. I can get lots of old memories and old drives from corporate I.T. departments. Last couple of months, I fixed four computers and donated them all to Salvation Army Thrift Shop. One replacing the power supply (5 minutes), one replacing the start switch (10 minutes), one with a stuck CPU fan, and one with no fixing, it was a working computer. (Many internal components are interchangeable). This is how I clean really grimy smelly electronic equipment, which I do not recommend for others: 1. 100-lb psi compressed air gun to blow out the dirt. I do this outside in the garden because the dirt in the key board, power supply, CPU and graphic card heat sink is unbelievable. 2. Dump the whole thing in a tub of hot dish washing water for no more than 5 minutes. 3. Take the computer out and blow out all the water with a leaf blower. 4. Use an electric fan to blow on the computer for a few hours. 5. Wait one day to turn on the computer. I also repair small appliances to donate. Kat, sorry about going off-topic. dcarch
