Sweet Smell of success for stables thanks to old folks homes oudour buster

Smelly stables could soon be consigned to history thanks to the discovery of a cleaning product originally designed to keep old folks homes odour free.

Horse rider Hilary Shuttleworth decided to try out a cleaner called Chemzyme at the stables where she keeps her 10 year old  Irish thoroughbred Mr Bojangles.

Hilary was delighted to find that a quick spray of the stable floor completely eradicated all odours and replaced them with a fresh minty fragrance.

Chemzyme is an organic product using naturally occurring bacteria to eliminate  foul smells from waste matter and is used by hospitals and residential nursing homes across the UK.

Hilary, who lives at Great Barr near Birmingham said: “I guess like a lot of amateur riders who have full time jobs, I only have time to give Mr Bojangles’  a thorough clean out once a week and his stable tends to get very smelly.

“The company I work for sells Chemzyme as a solution to eradicate human waste odours and I thought I would experiment with it to see if it also worked on stables.

“I was delighted to find that it does and I have given it to my friends to try out too and they have had the same results.

“It is so simple you just spray a small amount on a damp floor and that’s it - no more nasty smells.”

Ron Hutton, Sales Director at West Midlands based Chemex International said: “Chemzyme has been a great success in care homes and hospitals but we never thought  for one minute of using it for stables.

“Horse urine has a particularly powerful odour but we have tested Chemzyme and it destroys odours instantly and it is perfectly safe too.

“Hilary has made a fantastic discovery which will make life sweeter for thousands of riders and their horses!”
