Deodorizing after Seachem Prime spill?

[Jim Sinclair]

My online order of a 4 L bottle of Seachem Prime arrived today. It was not packaged properly. I took the box inside and unsuspectingly put it down on a chair while I went to feed my dogs and cats. When I came back into the living room I smelled a horrible stench and I noticed that the bottom half of the still-unopened box, and the seat of the chair it was on, looked soaked. Opening the box confirmed that the bottle of Prime had been thrown into the box without anything remotely resembling proper cushioning, and had been partly crushed in transit.

How do I de-swampify my chair and my house from this?

Just use a dry terry towel and push down on the soaked area to get as much of the dechlorinator as possible. I would then use a water soaked towel to rewet the area and dilute the prime. Then use another dry towel to adsorb the wetness in the area...then either use a hairdryer or just let it air dry. Eventually the smell will lessen with time. Hope it didn't stain the fabric.

Take pictures of the dechlorinator and box and contact the seller and ask them to replace the item.

I would do that first, the faster the better and faster reply from the seller
