In 2016, Allen built a new beef confinement barn and opted to treat his pit with NGA. About six months later, the contractor visited to showcase the barn to a potential client. It was February in Iowa, so the curtains were down, and the contractor anticipated a strong smell of cattle manure during the tour. However, as they walked around both the exterior and interior of the barn, they were pleasantly surprised to find it smelled no worse than a summer pasture on a calm day. The prospective client even brought his wife and their 2-month-old baby along, and none of them noticed any unpleasant odors. The barn smelled great.
The contractor eventually inquired about the absence of odors. Allen explained that neither he, his wife, nor his brother down the road had ever detected any smell from the pit. It had been a concern for all of them before the project, but they were all relieved with the outcome.
Two weeks later, the contractor returned with another potential customer and experienced the same results. He even requested to lift the pump-out cover to inspect the manure. Using a long rod, he stirred the contents, finding no solids, no crust, no flies, and absolutely no odor emanating from the pit. It was remarkable. Allen also assured him there were no issues with pumping in the fall.
That night, when the contractor returned home, he chose not to shower before greeting his family. His wife and kids always knew when he had been in an active cattle barn. Astonishingly, no one mentioned anything, which had never happened before. He was now convinced that NGA is an exceptional product because if his wife couldn't detect the cattle barn smell on him, he knew it was effective.
