Some good news: I think I've succeeded in shutting down Pest Proof, a company selling a scam mosquito trap filled with yeast, sugar, baking soda, and citric acid. Its e-commerce site started displaying, "Site Inactive", today, at least. Over the past several weeks I've sent complaints to all 50 states, the EPA, the FTC, and to regulatory authorities in Canada and the UK where it was also being marketed. Someone listened, it seems. Traps like this kill innocent insects, not mosquitoes. #mosquitoes #insects

The cat litter experiment was successful. I covered the shoes in it for the night*, took them out the next day and the stench was gone. I wasn't able to get it out by washing and scrubbing multiple times.
* For the record, I've used a fresh bag of cat litter.
Cat litter has a few advantages over, say, baking soda: it's easily available in large quantities, it's easy to pour out afterwards, and you can put it in the litter box afterwards.
