Tips for getting rid of cat sand/litter smell? - eviltoast

Hi!

So curious if anyone has any tips regarding this. We have our cat litter in the washroom of the house. The current cat sand we use has a distinct smell. While we are experimenting with different types of sand, they all, so far, have some sort of smell to them. Obviously it will also smell extra bad whenever the cats use the litter box. While we do remove the litter as soon as possible, we are curious if there are ways to at least mask the smell of the sand with something else… Anyone got any tips?

    It doesn’t eliminate the smell, but air purifiers can reduce it significantly. We have a decent one in the room where the litters are that turns on on a schedule. It’s a bit annoying that if the cats use the litter just when it’s turning off then it’s kinda no use.

    My long term plan if I ever get around to it is to build a cupboard type thing to put their litter in with an extractor fan to the outside.

    Litter robots could help, but all the people I know who have them said they just replace some issues and chores with other issues and chores in the end.
