From comments on the wood database:
Does anyone know what kind of wood literally smells like a dirty diaper? My husband bought me a small wooden bowl from Amazon and I should have returned it. I used paint stripper to remove the lacquer finish, soaked it in vinegar, baking soda (twice each) and left it in the sun for days. It still stinks. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Many years ago the company I work for had some helicopters shipped back from Brazil. The crates were made of mahogany and smelled like dog poo! It was fresh cut and untreated and we couldn’t get it out of the building fast enough. The woodworkers in the crowd were glad to take it.
That is the textbook written smell of E. Coli. Bacteria
Maybe I can't fix it, but I can fix it so no one can fix it
