FAQ: Does Smell Hound work on all types of odours?
Yes, the Smell Hound Odour Eliminator is designed to work on a wide range of organic odours, including pet odours, cooking smells, mustiness and more. It doesn't just mask odours; it actively breaks them down, leaving your space smelling fresh and clean.
What are Synbiotics?
Smell Hound uses synbiotic technology with 100% natural synbiotic ingredients. Synbiotics are a unique combination of prebiotics and probiotics, formulated and stabilised under lab quality conditions.
What are prebiotics and probiotics. Is there a difference?
Prebiotics are sugars that can only be digested by good microorganisms. In the case of the synbiotic products, prebiotic sugars are also present, which stimulate the already present good microorganisms through a delayed action. In this way, Smell Hounds synbiotic products feed the already present good microorganisms which promotes the diversity of the microflora in a positive direction.
What is Smell Hound's shelf life?

Good for the environment and your gut health!

- actively reduce odor
- probiotics are active dirt removers that clean skin and hair on a microscopic level
- Reduces allergens on pet hair
- Unique combination of probiotics and prebiotics

How does Smell Hound actually work?
Did you grow up thinking all bacteria are harmful? Well, they're not! In fact, you couldn't survive without the help of good bacteria, such as those populating our gut.
The Smell Hound Odour Eliminator dispenses the Synbio® fluid into the air via the ultrasound emitter turning the fluid into a mist.
This spreads the good bacteria across all surfaces within a 50-100 square metre radius.
The good bacteria then comes into contact with the bad bacteria that causes smells and uses it as food, effectively "eating" it and thus removing the odour.
