stinky vac bags Original Message May 22, 2009 11:08 am
I'm in a house with 4 dogs, 1 cat, and a Miele Capricorn. The bags tend to get quite odiferous before they're even half full and the activated charcoal filter can't keep up. I even tried hosing the bag down with Febreze and drying it out before using it, but that just makes it smell worse.
Have any of you tried the Arm & Hammer bags? Are they any good? Other than that, I'm tempted to go to an aquarium store and buy a box of Zeolite granules.
Car houses are the oldest known profession. They always survive the worst financial conditions. I wonder if WB owns a few since this would be a model investment using his strategy.
No, not a chance. Owns KIRBY. Stake in TTI. A dyson buy-out is not even on the radar screen yet by WB. If you know Buffett and Munger's buying strategy, they always buy well run and well managed companies. Why? They always leave the existing management in place after the buy-out. Your company doesn't meet mustard. Not even close. Dyson is badly run, loosing money year over year [if not suction] bleeding cash for daily expenses with too many unrelated unprofitable products, markets, and research ventures that exhaust precious resources [time, people and money] and diminish underlying value.
I've often found a tablespoon of bicarbonate of soda helps for smelly bags. I'm surprised that the Miele Air clean filter isn't minimising pet hair odour. If you have an Active Air Clean filter, that won't do it - Miele's HEPA filter (blue cartridge) is a lot better at coping with pet hair odour.
