• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

Pet wee!

Since our old cat was ill and started soiling indoors we have struggled to locate the source of a lingering odour. Bit of googling later I decided to buy a blacklight/UV torch.

I read various good/bad reviews, read up on the required light spectrum for pet mess and made a choice.

Well to say I was stunned is an understatement! Here's what an old (we're talking 6 months or more) cat wee stain looks like under UV. Bear in mind that the pic doesn't do it justice, the stains are probably twice or more bright than they show in the picture.



If you find yourself in the same pickle then I can heartily recommend it. Coupled with some stuff called PetWeeAway (which really does work) I can finally get rid of the stinky remnants.

Torch wasn't cheap (but not dear either) but research suggested cheap=poor in this field so I plunged. Happy to share link to the one I got if anyone's interested.

Cheers
Mark
 
No more pets for us as SWIMBO's got an extraordinarily sensitive hooter to cat fur…even being in the vicinity of a mog will set her nose twitching - Rob

So is this what I need to take to stop me having to get up in the middle of the night? :lol:
 
[trivia alert] A lot of birds of prey see in ultra-violet, and can therefore see the trails of urine left by mice, voles etc on their regular runs. This is one of the reasons why they are so damned efficient at catching rodents.[/trivia alert]
