Talk:Captan

Paul Parone on the radio recommended Captan to remove musty basement odors. He said to add 5 tps of Captan to 1 gallon of warm water and spray on concrete floor, walls and corners of basement. Open windows and place a fan in the room to circulate the air for a whole day. Do in the spring and fall.

Disambiguation section at beginning

I have been involved with gas odorants for years and don't know anyone who uses the name Captan for ethyl mercaptan. An internet search comes up with the ag chemical and not the odorant. Ethyl mercaptan is also not used for natural gas. JSR (talk) 12:23, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

I've reworded the hatnote so it no longer makes the statement that captan is a name for the ethyl mercaptan [1]. I will have no objections if it's removed altogether. – Uanfala (talk) 00:34, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
