1373.2 | PDX / PDZ, a rose by any other name.... | ESCROW::ROBERTS | | Wed Oct 10 1990 10:29 | 17 |
| Sounds like this is the same stuff as Sweet PDZ, which was advertised
quite heavily in horse magazines a few years ago. I used it for a
while but found it expensive when used at the recommended amounts ( I
think it was something like a half pound per day per stall - and I had
13 horses at the time) Does the Blue seal stuff come as a powder or
what, and how much do you have to use? You mentioned airing it out to
re-use it. How do you do this with a powder? Or was that for some
other form of the same stuff?
I just talked to the folks at the Blue Seal store in So. Acton
(Erikson's) and though they do not carry the Blue Seal PDX, they do
carry PDZ at $9.95 for 50 lbs.
Since I now have fewer horses, but in barn attached to my house, I
will try this product again and report the results!
stuff again.

1373.3 | it's sweet pdz | GLORYX::SANDLER | | Wed Oct 10 1990 12:10 | 24 |
| hi,
it is sweet PDZ. It has a thousand and one uses...
If you get a large flat container, like the ones used to hold water at the
bottom of a planter. You can fill this with PDZ and place it in a dark corner,
placing it in the sun will rid it of the odors, and all the odors in that room
will be gone. In about 4 weeks take the container outside and place in the
sun for about 3 days. The PDZ will be rid of the odors and ready for re-use.
It will last like this for about 5 years.
You can do the same in the stalls only you have to figure a way to hang it high
and out of the horses way. There's no problem if the horse eats the PDZ but
they may get hurt by the container. This is how you save money. Once you
powder the stall and then hang the container (needs to be able to get lots of
air) you will find that the container will maintain the stall for a long time.
Spread a small amount on the manure as you remove it and rid yourself of flies
and a smelly manure pile.....
use pdz everywhere, on the pets...... on the rugs(don't vacumn for two days)
and place those containers around.....

1373.5 | An odor killer??? Hmmmmm.... | BOOVX2::MANDILE | | Thu Oct 11 1990 17:03 | 9 |
| This is a very interesting product.....
I could use something to help with the litterbox odors
as my basement is damp, and carries/holds the smell in
the air. And, of course, the horse stalls & the rabbit
cages could use a little "air freshener". I'm going to
look into this some more.....

1373.7 | Supplier for PDX? | ESCROW::ROBERTS | | Fri Apr 17 1992 14:41 | 19 |
| Well, I just rereead these notes and noticed that I had promised to
report on the Sweet PDZ. I forgot to.... 8^( Anyway, I've been
using it on uddy spots in my paddocks, and in wet spots in my stalls.
My barn is close to the property line, so I like to be sure my
neighbors aren't subjected to a lot of horsey odor. And this stuff is
magic. Usually in the fist spring thaw, I have one muddy spot that
smells like a sewer and this stuff makes the smell disappear. Seems to
work for a long time, too.
BUT -- I just this noontime went to Erikson's in Acton to get another
50lbs (turns out I only need about 50lbs per year!) and they no longer
carry it. And their distributor no longer carries it! Actually, I'm
not surprised. I mean, how much can they be making if I only had to
buy 50 lbs in a year for four horses?? What they used to carry was
PDZ. Does anyone know if Blue Seal still carries the PDX brand of the
same magic stuff? I bough 50lbs of lime instead, but it's nowhere near
as good.
