Super Glue contains chemicals that have a very strong odour. Because of this, it is important to always work in a well-ventilated area to make sure the odours don't settle into areas of your home. If you failed to do this or if you accidentally spilt Super Glue, the smell might remain long after the glue has dried or been removed. The smell will eventually dissipate but you can speed up the process with products that absorb and neutralise odours. Use natural products that will not damage children or pets if accidentally ingested.
