The Floor Hygienator is a new object in The Sims 3: Ambitions. They can be built by Sims in who have the Inventing skill, and will often be the first of the Big Invention class of inventions to be created. They can sometimes be found for sale at the Consignment Store, but whether or not one will be available to buy when a Sim enters the store is up to random chance. When put on the floor, they release an aromatic mist every couple of seconds. This mist restores a small amount of Hygiene to nearby Sims, and comes in three selectable scents, each of which has a unique color:

  • Shower Fresh Unscented (White)
  • Scientific Researcher (Blue)
  • Happy Day Potpourri (Pink)

They can be placed almost anywhere, including under objects, or under carpet. They can even be grouped in tightly knit formations for additional effect. It is recommended to place Floor Hygienators in places that Sims cross often or spend a lot of time in. However, there is a certain risk in this as Floor Hygienators that are not of the Masterful level can backfire and make Sims nauseous, causing them to vomit, as well as noticeably lowering their Hygiene.

For most Sims, being around a Floor Hygienator long enough not only produces a state of being Squeaky Clean, it can also induce the New Car Smell and Minty Breath moodlets. Some Sims with certain Traits even get a bonus moodlet; for example, those with the Genius trait get the Fascinated moodlet. On the other hand, there are also Traits that produce negative reactions to Floor Hygienators; for example, Neurotic Sims get a Scared moodlet from them. Additionally, Sims with certain Traits may also get additional positive or negative moodlets depending on the scent selected.

Floor Hygienators are completely portable, and a Sim can lay them down at home or on community lots alike. However, they tend to be unreliable in the long term unless they are at the Masterful level, as there is a risk of backfiring. Masterful Floor Hygienators are incredibly useful to Sims training on exercise machines or breaking boards, as having two to three Floor Hygienators under them can completely offset the Hygiene drain that naturally results from participating in those activities, with no fear of backfiring.
