Treated at the material holding it. A smell that comes back on the first humid day was covered up, not removed. All Dry Services of the Bluegrass answers live, day or night.

## The material holding the odor

The compounds causing a persistent smell are lodged inside porous material: drywall, framing, subfloor, carpet backing, upholstery. Nothing sprayed into the air reaches any of it, which is why the smell returns the moment the treatment stops.

Humidity is the diagnostic. A treatment that seemed to work in dry weather and failed in July was acting on the air rather than the material, because humidity reactivates residue that was there the whole time.

## Source first, air last

1. Find what is holding it: The smell is downstream of a material. Everything else waits on knowing which one.
2. Remove what cannot be cleaned: Carpet pad, saturated subfloor, contaminated insulation. Usually the step that resolves it.
3. Clean what stays: Matched to the residue, because protein smoke, mold and urine need different agents.
4. Treat the porous material: Professional deodorizers and cleaning agents applied to the material itself rather than sprayed into a room.
5. Seal what cannot be extracted: So framing and subfloor stop re-emitting on the next humid day.

## Turning a property around between tenants

A good deal of our odor work is for landlords and property managers with a unit that will not let. Smoke, pets and long vacancy are the usual three, and all of them are material problems rather than cleaning problems.

We will tell you whether it can be treated or whether the carpet and pad have to come out, because the alternative is you paying for a treatment and then paying for the flooring anyway.
