Eliminate bad odors and taste in fresh water system
Recommended by Highways Magazine. Mix 5 - 10 oz. of That Orange Stuff® in a gallon of water and put into fresh water holding tank. Add approximately 9 more gallons of fresh water. (If you wish to use more water, add That Orange Stuff® so that the mix is 1/2 oz. per gallon of water to 1 oz. per gallon of water.) Rock trailer to agitate then run mixture through the water system. Don't forget the hot water tap in order to clean out the water heater. Run about half of the mixture through, then let stand for 3 - 5 minutes. Run the remaining mix through the lines. Rinse by adding fresh water to the tank and running it through the lines. If there is any orange odor or taste to the water, it will dissipate after a couple of rinses.
That Orange Stuff® is 100% natural and is non-toxic. Do not leave in system for extended periods of time - orange odor and taste may be more difficult to get rid of.
Deter mice
That Orange Stuff® has not yet been approved as an animal repellent. However, Saskatchewan Environment and Resource Management has found it to be effective. Many other people also report success.
During the summer: Spray mist of 2 oz. That Orange Stuff® per gallon of water in any area where mice may enter, as well as all areas where there are signs of their presence.
During the winter: Put 2 - 3 oz. of concentrated That Orange Stuff® (not diluted) into a glass dish, tuna can, or similar container (do not use a plastic container), and insert a piece of sponge (acts as a wick). Set the container in the vehicle. Use 2 - 3 containers in an RV. Use pieces of cloth soaked in 2 oz. per gallon of water to block any holes the mice can jump through. Although these will freeze, the mice will not chew them - they don't like the taste. Check periodically to make sure you can still smell the orange -- if not, add a little more concentrate to the containers, it leaves a pleasant citrus aroma. Use concentrated That Orange Stuff® during the winter because it will not freeze in the concentrated form.
Ants or other insects inside RV
Howard Garrett, a well-known holistic horticulturist, uses d’limonene based products like That Orange Stuff® in Texas to destroy fire ants. Mix 5 to 8 oz. of That Orange Stuff® per gallon of water. Spray well at suspected entry points.

While still wet, spray mist of concentrate, or spray strong mix of 10 - 20 oz. of That Orange Stuff® per gallon of water over the area to be cleaned. Let stand for 10 minutes to emulsify, then pressure wash off. If build-up is heavy, you may need a second application. No harsh odors and no problem with skin contact!

Eliminates the odor - doesn't just cover it up!
