Ok, so the reality is, everyone’s poo stinks, but the bathroom doesn’t have to be destroyed and inhabitable for an hour either by poo stink or the toxic or harsh smell of most post poo deodorant sprays. For me, even the “natural” ones can be almost worse than the reason it was sprayed!
This pre-poo spray thing is brilliant and it WORKS! It’s ridiculously easy to make (as you will see) and if one remembers to use it BEFORE you go, it is like magic.
Green Diva Lisa and I made this quick DIY video tutorial while I was visiting up in GD Studio North (Portland Maine) recently.
