ABSTRACT:
The addition of urease negative bacteria to sodium smectite clay minerals in pet litter inhibits growth of urease positive bacteria for a period of several days, thereby retarding formation of ammonia and other obnoxious odors. Approximately fifty percent sodium bentonite in the litter causes the litter to clump upon wetting, maintaining the urea in contact with the treated clay and also serving as a buffer to favor growth of the urease negative bacteria.
