I bleach my concrete slabs once a week and i dont have a smell at all. This also eliminates parvo and other dseases in the feces. I have six dogs with less you might not have to do it every week. I dont scrub them when i bleach i only do that once a month. I just sprinkle bleach all over the pens let it sit and wash them down. Bleach wont hurt the dogs i pour a cap of bleach in my five gallon water buckets with their water to cut down on bacteria growth. And i have very healthy dogs. Also i put lime around the dirt around the concrete on the outside of the kennels to break down the stuff that gets out there i do this every other month but if you have a lot of dogs you might have to every month. . Just make sure its not where the dogs can lick the lime.

Yes sir try the pelletized lime it lasts longer and does not dissolve as fast it may take a day or so after you put it out but when you put it down wet it just a little and iit will help break down the feces as well as odor. One fifty pound bag lasts me between four to six months again just make sure the dogs cant eat it through the pens but it works like a charm if you have tto buy the powdered lime it works too just does not last as long on the ground

I use powdered white lime. The same thing we use in the pens in the barn works great and looks clean.

I use Odoban everyday. It works great. I get it by the gallon at SAMs Club. I put a pump stem in it and a couple squirts per kennel the host them down. No more stink
