To do this, simply sprinkle coffee grounds or baking soda on the surface of the sand where the cat defecates. But make sure the cat waste is thrown away first, okay?

So, to use vinegar, you can use a mixture of water. So just mix vinegar and water in the amount according to taste. After that, flush or spray the vinegar water onto the surface of the sand. That way, sand that has been treated with kitchen ingredients tends to neutralize the smell of dirt in it.
Basically, coffee and baking soda have odor-absorbing properties. Baking soda and coffee particles can absorb and neutralize odor molecules, thereby reducing unpleasant odors. In addition, soda is basic (alkaline), which can neutralize the acid in cat feces and reduce the odor caused by acidic compounds.

On the other hand, vinegar also has a role as a natural antibacterial. Well, the antibacterial properties of vinegar will help kill odor-causing bacteria in the sand or cat litter. This is very important because bacteria is one of the main sources of unpleasant odors.
