How to Safely Dilute Creolina for Cleaning and Odor Removal

Creolina is powerful — but to use it safely and effectively, you need to dilute it properly. In this guide, we break down the best dilution ratios for common uses, safety tips, and what NOT to do.

⚖️ Why Dilution Matters

Creolina is a concentrated cleaner — using it straight out of the bottle can damage surfaces or cause irritation. When diluted correctly, it becomes one of the most effective tools for deep cleaning, deodorizing, and disinfecting.

📏 Recommended Dilution Ratios


🧪 Always add Creolina to water, not the other way around. Wear gloves and work in a ventilated space.


🧽 General Surface Cleaning

 

Ratio: 2 ounces of Creolina per 1 gallon of water

Use for: floors, patios, concrete, garbage bins, tools, outdoor furniture

Method: Mop, scrub, or wipe — then rinse with clean water


🐾 Pet Area Odor Control

Ratio: 1 ounce per gallon of water

Use for: kennels, dog runs, litter areas, barns

Method: Apply diluted solution, let sit for 5–10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly

⚠️ Caution: Do NOT let pets walk on or lick wet Creolina. Let dry completely and rinse well.


🚽 Drain and Septic Use (Where Permitted)

Ratio: 4–6 ounces poured down drain with a gallon of hot water

Use for: odor control in drains or septic tanks

Method: Flush after use, use sparingly

🚫 What NOT to Do with Creolina

❌ Don’t use undiluted on wood, porous stone, or delicate surfaces

❌ Don’t apply directly on pets or skin

❌ Don’t mix with bleach, ammonia, or other chemicals

❌ Don’t use indoors without ventilation
