HC-Pedia Entry

Bacteria digester

These products are an effective way to deal with odor from organic decay and stains on porous surfaces caused by vomit, urine or fecal matter. They contain friendly bacteria activated by water. These bacteria release enzymes that digest the offending organic matter, after which the bacteria die off from nutrition depletion.

Digesters generally cannot be combined with other cleaners, and label instructions must be followed carefully for their effective use.
