I love this rug, and especially that its all natural, but my husband hates it because of the smell. I admit it stinks, but I hate to part with it. Miss Kitty really like it too :-)

Have you tried spraying with a natural room spray? I make my own using distilled water, vinegar and essential oils.

Have you tried spritzing it with Frebreeze or the knock of extra-strength one from the Dollar Tree?
I had to get rid of mine for just that reason.
Hi, Try using Febreze, all over Rug, Both sides.
omg I love your cat
Love your fur baby?🐈🍒
Leave it outside until it has dried out and lost the smell.
Fresh air and sunshine work miracles.
Thank you all for your suggestions but I decided to rip it out and I put down this awesome vinyl plank. I laid it in a herringbone pattern and am quite proud of myself. I admit, it is so much better than the jute .
Hit both sides with Freebreez and repeat if needed.
