Recipe Notes
IMPORTANT
- If you wish to use a different essential oil, first research to ensure it is pet-friendly.
- Essential oils are highly concentrated, so you don’t want to add too much. If the scent is too strong, your pet may avoid that area.
- Ensure the disks are placed where your pet can’t get to them.
Usage & Storage
Depending of the size and thickness, each disk should last 2-4 weeks. After its scent as faded, remove any dried flowers and crumble the disk into your washing machine with your next load of laundry. (Baking soda is great for removing odors in laundry.) Or simply throw it away.
Store disks in an airtight container.
