Proper use of pheromone products

  • F3 diffusers must be used at a rate of 1 per 50-70m2, in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
  • Diffusers should be left switched on at all times and must not be moved from room to room.
  • They should be installed strategically, one in each of the locations where individual cats or factions of cats spend time. Installing a single diffuser in a hallway between rooms will not generally produce an effect in the rooms.
  • When F3 diffusers are first installed the cats should be kept away from the diffuser for the first 1-2 hours to prevent them from spraying onto the diffuser. Being plastic, the diffusers will initially release a combination of smells that some cats may find objectionable.
  • If a diffuser becomes contaminated with urine it should be thoroughly cleaned, other wise it will release urine odours along with the F3. Some diffusers may need to be thrown away.
  • F3 spray can be used to spot mark new objects that are brought into the house [clothing, bags, new furniture].
  • F3 spray can also be used as a deterrent for scratch marking in the home: one squirt is applied daily to the claw marking location. An alternative claw marking location should be provided nearby.
