The ammonia smell is from a build up of urine. If the stables are not mucked out regularly this will cause a build up. Each stall should be muck at least once a day preferably two or three is the horse is inside most of the time. Also if the floors are dirt you may have to dig out the dirt and replace it. I also suggest using rubber mats. You can also place a stall freshener on the mat and work it in. Stall need to be stripped and cleaned from top to bottom at least every other month.
Well you could try, but it's probably better to use a specially designed product.
Milk and vinegar are both acidic, and most samples of water are slightly acidic due to CO2 absorption. Ammonia dissolved in water is slightly basic. Therefore, an ammonia solution could neutralize an acid.
yes vinegar and ammonia neutralize each other in the following reaction: CH3COOH + NH3 --> CH3COONH4 in other words, the vinegar and ammonia will react forming ammonium acetate. this product is a de-icing agent, but as far as I know is not a cleaner or anything of any other use. DO NOT HEAT IT, you will be left with acetamide which is a known carcinogen in rats!!!!!!!
