Deodorex
Deodorex is a unique formulation of naturally occurring bacteria and enzymes specially formulated to address the problems created in livestock husbandry by animal waste derived surface odor effects. Deodorex is not a masking agent, it works by addressing the root cause of the odor.
Housing Environment
The prevailing environment in livestock housing can dramatically affect the health and productive efficiency of the animals housed in them. This in turn impacts the economic return that can be derived from those animals.
An unhealthy environment exacerbates stress in the animals thereby reducing production performance. Increased levels of stress makes animals more susceptible to disease, thereby increasing medication costs and production losses which affect profitability. One of the major environmental stress conditions that adversely affects confined animals is the inefficient decomposition of animal wastes. In such conditions the volume of waste excreted by the animals greatly exceeds the rate at which it can be naturally degraded. An obvious indicator that waste decomposition processes are not progressing adequately is the presence of elevated levels of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide in the ambient air.
Addressing the problem using Deodorex
Deodorex contains a unique formulation of naturally occurring bacteria and enzymes specially formulated to address the problems created in intensive livestock husbandry by animal waste-derived surface odor effects.
Mode of Action of Deodorex
- Deodorex is not an odor masking agent.
- The mode of action of Deodorex is to address the root cause of the odor.
- Deodorex consists of a high concentration of viable bacteria and microbially derived enzymes which are part of the natural process of organic waste degradation.
- Application of Deodorex ensures that the natural degradative processes for animal manure and urine wastes occur at an accelerated rate sufficient to prevent toxic odor build up in livestock housing.
- Deodorex results in a healthier environment which provides for healthier animals and therefore healthier PROFITS!
Benefits of Deodorex
- Healthier Livestock
- Lower Utility Costs
- Improved Working Environment
- Easier Compliance with Regulations
- Odor Management
Use of Deodorex in Veal Production
Duplicate veal barns of 4000 square feet each were used during a commercial veal grow out period. Both barns were identical in all respects. Deodorex was applied weekly, by liquid spray, to the floor surface of the treated barn.

Deodorex is a water soluble formulation for application via standard liquid spray equipment to the treatment area.
Deodorex is packaged in 1 kg jars, each of which will treat 10,000 square feet of treatable surface area.
None of the components in Deodorex are harmful to plants, animals or the environment and application may even be made in occupied animal enclosures. Deodorex contains only naturally occurring unmodified bacteria and enzymes that are exempt from regulation by the EPA. No license is required for the application of Deodorex.
Deodorex should be stored in a cool, dry place in it’s original packaging to ensure maximum viability.
