The powder is a strong smell of citrus with sprinkling cat in the pot, then it does not smell. I have one cat-estetka that will sit near the pot and shout (indoor, house), if there is even a faint smell. Often had to change the filler completely and clean several times a day, the benefit of filler lumps and easy to shovel. I honestly do not expect any effect from Citrus Magic powder, took the chance. But with him the filler used does not smell at all, the cat stopped asking to remove the pot for 5 times a day. Soda, like, too, for these purposes, but I have not tried. We soda in an amount will more than Citrus Magic, so I will take a magical citrus poroshochek. For those who complain that the powder does not smell lemons all around - remember that cats, unlike people, do not like the smell of citrus, and not the fact that your pet would go to the strongly odorous tray.
