SCENTED SOLUTION

Ridding yourself of the foul stench of skunk spray can be a tricky business, but a chemist named Paul Krebaum has created a home remedy that can successfully combat odorous thiols. The at-home formula calls for 946 millilitres of three per cent hydrogen peroxide, 3.3 tablespoons of baking soda and one to two teaspoons of liquid dish soap. After mixing all the ingredients in a container, use the mixture on hair or pet fur immediately, soak for a few moments and rinse with water. Do not leave the solution in a container as the buildup of pressure in a closed container could make it explode. This solution should oxidise the potent thiols, strip away oils in the spray and neutralise the odour.
