Between climbing gear (boots, shoes, etc) running gear, my dog, etc, etc, my room smells like ass.

Instead of cleaning it, what are your tips for making it smell nice?

Covering it up with another smell isn't the same as fixing the problem. Clean your room :)

Ona gel will help, available at most "indoor garden" supply shops.

Pour gasoline on your belongings... burning optional.

Gather up all the stinky stuff and throw it in a large trash bag. Poke a few holes in it for the dog.

Haha. That's hilarious. Store your gear in the garage or other area.

Especially cold areas. My old stinkbomb climbing shoes didn't smell like anything at all while they were stored in my 20°F garage.

(Eventually I took a chance and put them through the washing machine a few times, they smell fine now)

Coffee grounds worked when my cat thought he owned the place(he does own the place).

Find out what the drug cartels use to beat the drug-sniffing dogs. Apply copious amounts.

Feed the dog chlorophyll tablets, spray enzyme odor control mist. From what you are describing sounds like there is a lot of organic matter in the air. Air it out before you develop a lung condition or an allergy of some sort.

Your comments are mostly off topic, and worthless...and an Admin too. Bag the stinky stuff, or stick it in the garage to the OP.

Yes the OP's smelly room is SERIOUS BUSINESS.

Go drink a Russian PBR.

But a nylon bristle brush to really scrub your feet in the shower. It helps a little.
