What causes the smell?

The strong ammonia smell that comes from washroom drains and in particular urinals, is the build up of bad bacteria and uric acid which is only intensified by waterless systems and sense flush systems that prevent waterflow overnight, thus allowing the problem to get worse. ecobug® uses naturally occurring good bacteria which feeds on this buildup to break down blockages and unpleasant odours. By targeting the route of the problem, ecobug® does not temporary mask nasty smells like regular cleaning products, but eliminates them and keeps on top of the problem.
