You’re concerned about using Odoban around your cats and want to ensure it’s safe because they like to sniff and groom themselves after exploring.

It's great that you're looking out for your cats' safety. Odoban can be a safe cleaning option around pets when properly diluted and allowed to dry completely. Cats are naturally curious, and it’s essential to prevent them from coming into contact with wet cleaning solutions. They may ingest these chemicals inadvertently while grooming if they have walked on or sniffed freshly cleaned surfaces. Always ensure good ventilation during cleaning and store products out of reach.
