What does De-Mite Laundry Additive smell like?

Very strong tea tree oil smell, I always run an extra rinse. It's something that I've gotten used to though; now I think it smells fresh. I only do sheets and blankets that can't be washed in hot water.

Really nasty. I used it once and sincerely missed the TIDE smell. I have never used it again.

It smells like tea tree oil. More medicinal then anything else. I found that any fragrance from the de-mite disappears when the laundry is fully dried.

Let me start by saying it really works to get rid of dust me allergen. I have found the best way to use it is to soak my laundry for 15 minutes and the add your usual laundry detergent and wash. It does smell but if you use it per directions it shouldnt be noticable.

I haven't noticed any odor at all, and I've been using it for more than a year.

Debbie, I don't know if there is a fragrance to this additive, but if there is, I did not notice it at all - and normally I would. Don't count mine as the last word on this because I am out at the moment and can't go to the laundry room to check it, but I would say it is most likely fragrance free.

It doesn't. I've used both products for more than 10 years now. The delicate wash scent is milder and gentler. We love the scent of the basic Ecover Laundry Liquid -- not "soapy" smelling at all, just squeaky-clean.

Charlie's Soap still cleans. The cleaner will be also cleaning your washing machine of all the enzymes and such. I used Charlie's Soap without the additive for several months with no issues. I use the additive for my stepsons football clothes and my husbands work clothes. It just helps pull thoses major stains and stinks out. You really shouldn't have a problem. Good luck!

The Permethrin does leave an odor to the fabric and slightly stiff. I did not notice any grime.

It doesn't have an odor. I don't have the blanket with me but never put wool in the washing machine. I would spot clean or take to dry cleaners. But I've had mine for a few months and it still looks great, even with cats on it constantly.

It's a clean, powdery smell that goes away in a short time. Although I use a dermatology-tested laundry soap, I can use this product with no problem.

Once you wash it with a good antibacterial sop the factor smell subsides. Thanks for shopping with DGS Novelties!

Works great for sweat, mildew smell, and urine smell in clothing. I put about a tablespoon in the wash with stinky loads and do a prewash option. Works a lot better than oxyclean and doesn't damage my clothing (at least I can't see any damage, and I wash a lot of natural fibers on delicate).

De-Mite is not a concentrate and you add 1 1/2 tablespoon to each load of wash. I usually do just my clothes and esp my bed linen for my allergies. I don't have to wash things in hot water when I use it to kill the dust mites

I have never noticed anything but the clean smell, no scent that I can tell. (I don't use any perfumed detergents, only charlies soap and the oxygen booster)

Coconut oil based surfactants (helps breakdown the left over detergents in the fibers,) soda ash softens the water. And a few other NATURAL ingredients listed by Karen below.. Whatever -- it works. It strips out the old detergent and leaves my clothes smelling like I hung them outside to dry. It's very inexpensive and doesn't pollute. I can remember my grandmother using soda to wash clothes. When I saw the description on Amazon I figured I would try it. Now, it's all I use -- no fabric softener either. We don't realize how much "bad stuff" is in all these sweet smelling things we put in our washers and dryers.

Nope, none at all- it doesn't really smell before using, either. It's not scented- it's like powdered peroxide. And it is AMAZING for taking out stains!

There's is no scent or fragrance added however all detergents have a certain smell. This is normal for any product. Hope this answers your question.

It does not have a smell like BenGay, but it does have a smell of rubbing alcohol, not really strong tho. It does not stain your clothes, I haven't notice it to stain mine. I use it on my back only and so far no stains. I hope this helps

I just sniffed the contents as I couldn't recall and yes, it has a very light fragrance. I don't think it remains in my laundry as the detergent must over ride it. What is interesting to note is the ingredients/what it's made of is NOT listed on the packaging.

I have never used it to remove mildew or sour laundry before. It works so well on pet odors and freshens trash cans, that I can imagine it would help with mildew and sour laundry. If you're battling a HE washing machine odor, clean the door gasket creases using disinfecting wipes. Sometimes mildew will set in those creases causing an odor in the machine and causing clothing to smell as well. Clorox makes a Washing Machine Cleaner for HE washers. This will help clean the rest of the drum and interior workings that come in contact with water, debris and detergent. You can still spray this Zero Odor product in to freshen, but if there's mildew growing, you'll need to eliminate that problem. There's also a more environmentally friendly way of cleaning your machine, "Lemi Shine". It uses enzymes to eliminate odors and build up inside your dish washer, washing machine and disposal. I use it regularly in all 3 of my appliances and it works well. I also feel better using it because its environmentally friendly. Lemi Shine can be found at most grocery stores and its very inexpensive, about $4 or under. You get 3 packs of enzyme powder in each box. Hope this helps!
