Tee Tree Oil

My experience so far with this superior product. I purchased several 2 oz. bottle from Wal-Mart @ $4.86 per 2 ounces. I had one of the worst cat (8 cats) problems in one house that I have ever encountered. Tennant had moved, home empty. After the carpet was removed from the main level it revealed the damaged sub flooring, and it had to be removed. The lower level carpet was removed down to the concrete flooring. I was hired to treat the basement level for odor, and it was BAD. Even after the sub floor was replaced the odor was unbearable. I convinced the owner that the entire space had to be treated to be effective. I mixed 1 ounce of Tee Tree Oil to a gallon of warm water and added a little ProLim from Chemiester and applied it thru a Tri-Jet Fogger. I used 4 gallons of this mix on Wed. and today is Sat and there is not one hint of a cat odor in this home. One thing I found out in mixing this product is that Tee Tree is a oil and does not mix well with water. It must bee shakin constantly during the spraying process. This is a great product for urine problems.

I couldn't agree more. Tea Tree Oil works awesome with Releasit. We are using it more and more and so far it seems to be replacing all these high priced urine chems. that do not work.

A couple ounces of isopropyl alcohol per gallon may help the oil go into suspension better.

Do you use the Tee Tree oil every time you fill the cimex?? Or just for urine and foul odors?

We only use extra tea tree oil for odor problems. We usually use 20-40 drops of it per gallon of mixed Releasit DS.

hey Bob?

Bob, do you recommend dropping the couple oz's of Alcohol right into the Cimex Tank with the 20 - 40 drops of TT oil? or would the alcohol cause problems on carpet?

thanx --- Derek.

Hey Derek,

I do not mean to be silly or rude, but how else or you going to get the alcohol into the mixture. Maybe I am misunderstanding what you are asking but seems to me that you have to have the alcohol in with the Releasit and the extra tea tree oil to do any good.

Kevin Pearson

P.S. Maybe some more clarification is needed on your question.

Tea Tree is amazing stuff!

Glad to hear ya all are liking the Tea Tree. It's great stuff.

I get fever blisters sometimes. I get one about once a year.
There's no rhyme or reason, they just happen.

Well I got one the other day.
This time I decided to use Tea Tree on it.
All I can say is WOW!

Did it make the fever blister go away? No. But it sure has been the easiest fever blister I've ever experienced. I've just applied Tea Tree to the spot a few times a day. There's none of the the normal pain, bleeding, and yuk. The Tea Tree is making this little ailment a whole lot less bothersome.

So you guys might want to try it on other stuff too. Tea Tree is amazing stuff!

Tee Tree Oil is also excellent for treating head lice if you ever have a grade school child in need of help.

And nail fungus too.

July 20 2005, 3:21 PM 

Spraying water on shoes, sweat, etc, can contribute to toenail fungus, I would get it once in a while, and some 20 years back, when I bit on the Melaluca MLM thingy, they recommended the pure oil for any fungus problem, I had a mild case of toenail fungus, tried it, worked fine, killed the fungus, but took 3 or 4 months for the nail to grow back.

Since then 2 or 3 times more, and each time, same thing. A drop at the end of the nail, a few times, and that's all.

(If you are not familiar with this problem, the situation is shown in a TV ad, for Lanacil, where the yellow diggers eat the skin under the nail.)
