BAKING SODA

Baking Soda

What is the shelf life for Baking Soda?

The shelf life is three years. The expiration date is located on the bottom of the box and pouch.

Why have you changed the instructions from “change every 3 months” to “change every 30 days?”

The new 30-day change message is based on our continuing research efforts to understand the process of odor elimination and odor generation. After 30 days, Baking Soda has adsorbed many of the odors in the fridge. By replacing the box of Baking Soda every month you get improved odor elimination, ensuring your food tastes fresher longer.

Can I use Baking Soda and Clear Balance for my pool?

Yes, we recommend using Baking Soda initially to raise pH and alkalinity, and then following with regular use of Clear Balance to maintain levels.

How often should the box of Baking Soda in the fridge and/or freezer be changed?

We recommend changing the box in your refrigerator/freezer once a month for optimal freshness.

If my pH fluctuates greatly can I still use this product? If so, how much should I use?

Use ARM & HAMMER™ Baking Soda per the package directions to initially adjust pH to proper levels, then use Clear Balance to maintain (follow package directions for dosing).

What is the difference between Baking Soda and Baking Powder?

Baking soda is 100% pure sodium bicarbonate. Baking powder is a mixture of baking soda (usually about 28-30%) and various acidic ingredients (singularly or in combination). Both are used as leavening agents in baked goods- baking soda will react with an acid, giving off carbon dioxide gas and causing dough to rise. However, they are used in different situations and are not interchangeable. Baking soda is typically used in a recipe that has an acidic ingredient (cream of tartar, buttermilk, etc.) that will react with the soda to give off carbon dioxide. Baking powder, which contains one or more acidic ingredients to facilitate the reaction, is used in recipes without acidic ingredients.

How does Baking Soda differ from Super Washing Soda?

Baking Soda is made of 100% Sodium Bicarbonate. Super Washing Soda is made of 100% Sodium Carbonate. While they sound similar, they are not the same. Both products can be used to improve liquid laundry performance for cleaner, fresher clothes. Both products can also be used for cleaning around the house. Baking Soda can be used in baking, as a dentifrice and as an antacid, Super Washing Soda cannot. Super Washing Soda should never be ingested. Be sure to check product packaging for specific uses and recommendations.

When used as a dentifrice how abrasive is baking soda?

Baking soda provides a mild abrasive action to help polish, clean and deodorize the teeth. It is the natural choice for highly effective personal products such as toothpastes, mouth wash and gargle.

Can Baking Soda be used as a booster in HE washing machines?

Yes, Baking Soda can be used with HE washing machines. Add 1 cup with your liquid laundry detergent.

How does Baking Soda help sooth poison ivy and bee stings?

Baking Soda temporarily protects and helps relieve minor skin irritation and itching by neutralizing toxins and irritants at the skin’s surface. Follow package directions listed under Drug Facts for skin protectant.

What is “dental grade” baking soda?

Dental Grade Baking Soda has a special particle size to provide optimum cleaning with low abrasion.

CAT LITTER

Cat Litter Deodorizer

Can I switch to AbsorbX litter from a regular litter?

You can always switch what litter you use, depending on your and your cat’s needs. Keep in mind that any litter switch may take some getting used to for both you and your cat.

Your cat will let you know if she approves of the new litter, too. As with any change in litter box (space, size, litter), go slowly to keep kitty’s stress down.

What is Clumping Litter or Scoopable Litter? How does it differ from traditional Clay Litters?

Clumping or scoopable litters utilize the "clumping" properties of sodium bentonite, a naturally derived special type of clay, to control litter box odors. This special type of clay uses the moisture it absorbs to bond soiled litter particles into clumps for easy removal and disposal. Litter boxes using clumping litters can be cleaned by removing only the soiled litter and sprinkling a new layer of clumping litter in the box. The box is fresh for use without the unpleasant task of emptying, washing and drying! Ordinary clay litters can absorb moisture, but cannot isolate it for easy removal. Since soiled litter is a source of odor-causing bacteria, clay litter must be completely changed frequently to prevent odor build-up. This involves discarding the entire contents of the litter box, washing and drying the box, and replacing the litter — a messy and smelly task... Cats love a clean litter box and nothing is cleaner than fresh clumping litter. Cats think clumping litter is the best thing since catnip...we think you'll agree!

Where should the product be stored?

Store in a dry place if clumping cat litter comes in contact with water, clumps will form. But it will not be affected by humidity.

Why is ARM & HAMMER™ Cat Litter Deodorizer still needed?

ARM & HAMMER™ Cat Litter Deodorizer is designed to eliminate litter box odors that ordinary scoopable and clay litters can't. The powder formula also prevents the litter from sticking to the bottom of the box, making litter box clean up even easier.

Multi-Cat Litter

Can ARM & HAMMER™ Multi-Cat Strength Litter be flushed?

ARM & HAMMER™ Multi-Cat Strength Litter should not be flushed. As a scoopable product, Multi-Cat Strength Litter forms clumps when exposed to direct moisture. Consequently, we do not recommend flushing the product since it can interfere with pipes or a septic system.

How much Baking Soda does ARM & HAMMER™ Multi-Cat Strength Litter contain and what is its role?

Although the exact amount of baking soda is proprietary, the product does contain sufficient levels of baking soda to effectively absorb and eliminate litter box odors.
