@jmbunkin Meh won’t tell you, but the bags actually house a small creature called an olfactious that comes out at night and eats the smell.
They love it, but wears them out so you need to give them sunshine through the bag.
However it must be stressed, DO NOT open the bag. Not to look at them, not to give them more sunshine. There’s a deleted review from Amazon where someone’s kids opened up the bag, and being a stinky kid, the olfactious went to work eating the bad smell…
COVID is likely a more cost effective way of removing your sense of smell. I wouldn’t recommend it, but I can speak from experience that it will eradicate it.
I’ve had three surgeries and spent tens of thousands of dollars to reduce sinus obstructions, two turbinate reductions, and removed my tonsils and adenoids, all to try and restore my sense of smell. The surgeries finally worked.
It was a mistake.
A terrible, terrible mistake. Do you know what it’s like to suddenly be able to smell your co-workers again after 40 years? Your Swiss friend who reeks of Raclette all the time? To fully understand what has happened to those couch cushions? Ugh. I’d take it all back. But I suppose a dozen of these will have to do.
We’ll give it shot and try the variety pack. Aside from the litter boxes and musty areas, we have the occasional mystery smells coming from under the house where it’s believed varmints are up to no good.
Bought this last time- the variety pack. Hung them in various multiples in various closets. The effect is so incredibly subtle- you barely know they’re working! Do they actually work at all? How the heck should I know! I barely work at all. I just buy stuff.
I bought these the last go round. I have one in my trash can outside the bag liner, no more stinky trash smell. I have a few others in cabinets that tend to get odd smells too. Since then the smells are gone! Overall there are worth the purchase. 10/10 recommend.
I got the variety packs last time they were offered. I won’t call them miracle workers, but they are somewhat effective. I had some stuff come in from an order (not Meh) that was PERMEATED with a perfume smell (I can’t handle fragrances) and I tossed the contents into a bag with one of the green rectangular bags. It didn’t get rid of the smell, but it did lessen a fair amount. So, they do work to some degree.
I bought these last time, and honestly, I have yet to find a use for them. Just hanging them around where things are malodorous does not seem to do much.

If I put these in my weed stash bag, will it cover up the smell?
@ephzee This is the most important question.
“… you put them out in the sun for two hours, and viola! They’re refreshed!”
Viola?
I know, I know. Someone’s gonna use AutoCucumber as their excuse….
@mehvid1 I seem to recall the same misspeeling last time…or some other time
@mehvid1 Wait, I have to purchase, and then learn how to play the viola in order to “refresh” them?!?
Or can I just find some pre-recorded viola music and stream it over some portable speakers for a few hours?!?
I’m so confused
@mehvid1 Autocorrect is my worst enema
@mehvid1
VIOLA!

Hey!! Is that Ernest P. Worrell in the background wallpaper for this item??
startin’ to think you’re trying to tell us something.
I hope they work on my skunks, as the last photo basically warranties.
@cmerino If we were to attach these to the rears of dogs and cats, would they no longer be able to identify family members?
How do these work? If I hang a few of them in the basement does stink just meander over to the bag and pass through it?

@jmbunkin @mcanavino
Brilliant explanation!
@mcanavino Cool,so I could put one in each of my back pockets and I’d be popular with coworkers again.
@jmbunkin For you, I’d have gone with one of the sex toys sold here recently.
@jmbunkin But were you ever really popular? Be honest with yourself. Were you?
Do these really work, and how well do they work? Asking for a down-wind friend.
COVID is likely a more cost effective way of removing your sense of smell. I wouldn’t recommend it, but I can speak from experience that it will eradicate it.
@danmerhar not reliable though.
@danmerhar @ohhwell Too true - post-Covid, I smell the same as before.
I’ve had three surgeries and spent tens of thousands of dollars to reduce sinus obstructions, two turbinate reductions, and removed my tonsils and adenoids, all to try and restore my sense of smell. The surgeries finally worked.
It was a mistake.

So what you are trying to tell us is that this deal doesn’t stink. Right?
Bought this last time- the variety pack. Hung them in various multiples in various closets. The effect is so incredibly subtle- you barely know they’re working! Do they actually work at all? How the heck should I know! I barely work at all. I just buy stuff.
@MrNews I concur.
I bought these the last go round. I have one in my trash can outside the bag liner, no more stinky trash smell. I have a few others in cabinets that tend to get odd smells too. Since then the smells are gone! Overall there are worth the purchase. 10/10 recommend.

How many times can they be rejuvenated by the sun before being “used up”?..if, indeed they do become “used up”.
Do they become less effective the more times that they are rejuvenated?
@werekong They’re bamboo charcoal, so they should be able to be reactivated forever, presumably.
Do they work at least as good, better, or worse than baking soda in the frig?
@werekong Don’t frig baking soda, there are much better lubricants, I keep them in my fridge.
@werekong I never use baking soda in my frig- it can really irritate the sensitive skin down there…
@werekong It might be more effective baking soda in the oven. Just sayin’…
Man, that skunk looks insulted!
I bought these last time, and honestly, I have yet to find a use for them. Just hanging them around where things are malodorous does not seem to do much.
For those that live in the pnw, what do you do when they need a recharge and there’s no sun?
@LordSalem Take them to a tanning salon!
@LordSalem @phendrick
Or use some of those UV sanitizer things they sold here during the pandemic.
I just want to know if @stinks took advantage of this deal?
