Spanish term

botellas higienizantes

Non-PRO Spanish to English Marketing Livestock / Animal Husbandry Veterinary clinics / Antiparasitic medication
SPAIN. This appears in a marketing survey about medicines sold in veterinary clinics. I think it refers to the little bottles of liquid (sometimes in spray format) that people use to spray or sprinkle where their dog has urinated or defecated, but I don't know if there is a specific name for them in English.

"Ofrecer packs para fidelizar a los propietarios de las mascotas. Más regalos como chucherías, juguetes o ***botellas higienizantes***. Esto ayuda a la clínica para cuidar más a nuestros clientes."
Proposed translations (English)
4 sanitizing bottles
3 disinfectant bottles/ solution

NB In the end I called them "sanitiser bottles". Thanks to everyone again for the comments.

Decisions, decisions I've decided what I'm going to call it, but rather than close the question, I'll leave it open to see if anyone feels like posting any suggestions.
philgoddard Nov 16, 2022:
Neil You could Google something like pet + urine + bottle, which gives lots of suggestions.

They're giving them away, as I understand it, not selling them. I don't think they'd give away empty bottles.

I like pet urine remover!
neilmac (asker) Nov 16, 2022:
@phil That's a Spanish site. If I knew what they were called in English, I wouldn't have posted the query. I agree that this is the kind of thing they're talking about, but the ones in the link seem to be only selling the bottle, as there is no description of any content. Perhaps the bottles are sold empty... I could ask the local vet about it, but I'm not due back there until the end of the month.

Something like this which is described as a botella higienizante:

There are lots of possible translations - the one in my kitchen cabinet at the moment is called pet urine remover. Why not just research the English names for these products, and pick one?

disinfectant bottles/ solution

This is the first thing that springs to mind.

In Spain, I've seen people use the bottles in the link to rinse away the pee, it's called Pipiclean. I think pet owners have to do this in Spain or they get a fine. I see it everywhere in Barcelona. However I don't think this is the case in the UK, so I don't think there's an exact official translation. If I'm wrong, I do apologise.

This may have to do, although my own idea only coincides with the "bottle" part :-)
