Are they smelly after they are tied shut?

That has never been a problem. However, I think that might depend on the dog, it's diet and it's health!

Well, no ... certainly no more smelly than are your regular kitchen trash bags once you tie them closed prior to disposing of them. Once I tie the poop bag closed (which is immediately after picking up the poop), I toss it in the nearest trash container I pass -- one in the alley if we're out on a walk, or in my own trash bin in my own alley if I'm picking up poop from within my own yard. I've never kept a used poop bag for any length of time, but can only assume that it would be smelly if not disposed of soon. This seems like such an obvious answer; perhaps I didn't understand the question...?

Odor is minimized after bags are tied. Bags are thick enough and does not leak. Just dont let it sit in the trash too long!

They don't have any scent to them when they haven't been used. I've carried them with me after using on hikes. I wouldn't say they are scent free, but it's not terrible. I'm not sure any dog waste bag would be totally scent free.

I didn't notice a smell and I was pregnant when I bought them. I use them to organize baby stuff. They don't really interlock, but I still find them handy.

after four days the smell went away, I just left it open, i believe it is what they waterproofed it with I have bought other things from an army surplus that smelled the same way.

Not sure, I bought a few and they have lasted for a long time. I haven't experienced any separation or odd smell.

There is a smell when you first open them, not terribly strong, but noticeable. I spread them out to air on the back porch for a few days after we received them and most of it dissipated.

Ours does not nor ever had any smell. We are vey happy with it, except for the poor magnet which came with it to hold the door shut. It was not sufficient. We needed to install two more magnets.

No. I just checked mine after being in their container for a week and didn't smell anything

I'm not aware of them smelling . . . I keep them in a cabinet that's enclosed and I can't say that I've ever smelled them. More important to me is that they're heavy enough not to tear and I've never found any rips or holes in them.

I let mine air out for a couple days after washing really well. Smell goes away after a while.

I never noticed a smell to them, even brand new out of the box. I put them under the mattress cover under the fitted sheet. So I don't know if would smell them if they did have a smell to them.

Yeah mine smelled too. Sort of like fake leather/mothball. I've had them since August and yes, they do still smell, but I have to say, less so than in the beginning and more tolerable.

I do not know if they smell. I know that it sure kills them and rats. Keep pets away from this product. Read the Lable very carefully. We do not have any more problems with mice or rats.

Not at all my experience. I love mine. I have used mine several times and no smelly issues at all. Good luck.

Nope, no smell. I've used them for my 2 year old grandson on a daybed, and for my 3 month old grandson in a crib. They work perfectly!

Yes, just let them sit outside for a few days, I use them in the winter, don't have a problem with the smell at all.
