How does it work?
SCENT-AMMO
® works on the electron charge found in all matter. But, SCENT-AMMO® has a strong selectivity to Nitrogen
and Ammonium ions and just like a magnet, it pulls them out of urine and holds them.

How long will it last?
SCENT-AMMO®
has an indefinite shelf life until you use it. Remember, it doesn't Dissolve, doesn't Fizz, it just takes the
Bad Stuff Out of Whizz. So, after you use it, the pellets are holding the nitrogen and ammonium ions, dispose of the used

SCENT-AMMO®
properly after use.

Can you provide a list of the different scents that you've tested?
Yes. Refer to the SCENT-AMMO® chart.

Will it work on all deer urines in the same way?
Pretty much so...depending on the age of the urine and what the scent manufacturer added to the urine. But, in all cases, it
will still focus on the nitrogen and ammonium ions and absorb them. Two things that will slow down the removal of Ammonia
in your favorite hunting scent are:
  • When salt (such as Sodium Benzoate) has been added as a preservative or attractant. Salt actually changes the
    "charge" in the urine. Salt, because it changes the charge, will slow down the process of SCENT-AMMO® to absorb
    the ammonium ions... Therefore, requiring a little more SCENT-AMMO® and a little more time to absorb ammonium
    ions in the urine.
  • Also, if an acid has been added to the urine, it will naturally form a salt in the urine... Because the combination of any
    acid with any base (urine with Ammonia) will always form a salt.
What's so important about removing nitrogen and ammonia in urine scent?
The most important reason is because nitrogen bonds with hydrogen in the urine and forms ammonia. You don't
want Nitrogen to bond with Hydrogen because Hydrogen, Carbon and Oxygen are primary in the trailing scent.

Are there any that you couldn't repair?
In most cases a long time. If you get the right amount of urine scent with the right amount of
SCENT-AMMO®
it will absorb the nitrogen and ammonium ions that are available in the urine. The age of urine
plays a big part on how long it will take for
SCENT-AMMO® to absorb the ammonia in the urine.

Several of the national brands of deer urine taken to the AMO (Archery Manufacturers and Merchants
Organization) show in January 2000, and SCENT-AMMO® is still holding all of them at a neutral pH 7.

I purchased SCENT-AMMO® and used the pH test kit that comes
with it. It lowered the pH, but not all the way to neutral. How
come?
  • You probably need to use a little more SCENT-AMMO® or a
    little less urine scent. Urine typically comes out of the animal
    (Deer, Elk, Fox, Etc.) between 6.8 pH and 7.2 pH.

When you first tested your deer scent and you could smell ammonia,
the pH was at around 9.5 pH, which is 500 times more caustic than
when it came out of the animal.
  • SCENT-AMMO® can repair urine (deer, elk, fox, coyote,
    raccoon, PEOPLE) from 9.5 down to a range of 7.0 (pH neutral).
    If it is animal waste and NOTHING ELSE, SCENT-AMMO® works
    best to absorb the Nitrogen and Ammonium Ions. SCENT-
    AMMO® can even repair a urine-based scent with added salt
    and other additives.

Note, salt will slow down the process to absorb Ammonia in the
urine-based scent. SCENT-AMMO® doesn't have to reduce the
pH all the way back to neutral to have removed the Ammonia.
  • If the scent is below an 8 pH, that's a reasonable pH and 1/10 as
    caustic as when it was above a 9 pH.
9.5 pH when I first tested it?
Because if you could smell ammonia in the scent it
had to be at around 9.5 pH. Aqueous (liquid)
ammonia and Gaseous (gas) Ammonia are at
equilibrium at around 9.5 pH. So, you wouldn't have
been able to smell ammonia unless it was that high.
How long will SCENT-AMMO® hold my deer
scent after it is repaired?
In most cases a long time. If you get the right amount
of urine scent with the right amount of
SCENT-AMMO® it will absorb the nitrogen and
ammonium ions that are available in the urine. The
age of urine plays a big part on how long it will take
