Feliway Question

Hmm, hope this is in the right place...

Anyway, has anyone's feliway plug-in left a stain on the wall it was plugged into? I noticed above my outlet this HUGE discollored mark. I wanna know if it's the Feliway or something else.
Here is a pic of what Im reffering to.

The diffuser does spread the Feliway by releasing it into the air, and it can collect as droplets if there is furniture above it - which makes a great fruit fly sticky trap, BTW.

I have 4 diffusers and not a single mark on my walls as a result. It may well be that you had a defective diffuser.

I`ll certainly be checking back to see if anyone else has had this problem....we have 2 of them that we want to put in the apartment next month when we move....but if it`s going to do that I`m not sure i`d dare!
We`re you able to get the stain off your wall???

Does it look like it has done something to the paint, or does it look like there is a residue on the wall that you might get off with the right cleaner? (I looked at the pic but can't tell)

I have'nt gotten it off yet...not sure what to use.

It would suck if the defuser was deffective...it was'nt cheap...

Wow, mine has never done that! I'd be surprised if it did as well, since there's no way it can "spray" - it just heats up and releases vapors from the stick thingy.

I've used feliway plug-ins in various sockets off and on for the past couple years, and no marks on any of the walls.

I've had no problems either. The only time i had any residue was when I put up an IKEA medicine cabinet, and foolishly placed it right above the outlet and diffuser... the bottom of the metal cabinet got all greasy-ish. I moved it... I had them in all over this apartment, and have had no issues...

Maybe email the company?

hm yea, no problems here...

my guess is that it was something else...

I've had my diffuser for over a year, in the same location, and nothing like that's happened with mine.

Hmm...
Thanks guys. I'll investigate the spot a bit more then. Almost seems to be comming from that hole in the middle of it.

Yes I just painted ,y laundry room, a diffuser in there put a huge stain on the wall. No other diffusers have stained walls. So upset...

I'm not sure this is all that uncommon all the rooms at my vets office have stains where the diffusers are plugged in. They have both the cat and the dog versions and they all leave a slick of oily residue on the wall.

Same thing happened when I tried a diffuser at home, oily slick on the wall. Took a few applications of goo gone to get rid of it. Disgusting stuff.

I used the arosal can after that and sprayed it on my cat's collar.

I saw markings on my wall also. At first I didn’t know what it was until I went to another room that had a diffuser and noticed the same. One wall has markings ( like a sweat stain) and the other has the same as well. There is a picture hanging above the outlet so the droplets can be seen on the bottom of the frame as well as on the outlet itself. Odd. Very odd.
