Just wiping away dust and mopping the floor every now and then won\u2019t help to make your house cleaner and smell better. Some unpleasant odors can get stuck in furniture, household appliances, electronics, and even in your own mattresses. Luckily, all of them are very easy to clean by just using the ordinary materials that almost anyone has at home!\n\n\n\n
We believe that cleaning needs to be effective, yet fun. That\u2019s why we can\u2019t wait to share our creative household secrets with you. Make sure you write them down!\n\n\n\n
One of the common culprits for a smelly home is the trash can.\n\n\n\n
The trash can is one of the most neglected areas of the house because most people don\u2019t think to clean and deodorize the place where you put your trash!\n\n\n\n
And you can fix this issue with a home remedy you already have in your kitchen cabinet: Baking soda!\n\n\n\n
Baking soda can not only help get rid of your trash can odors but also prevent it from coming back. You can either sprinkle a little at the bottom of your trash can or directly into the trash if needed.\n\n\n\n
Don\u2019t forget to clean the kitchen and bathroom trash cans as they all harbor lots of bacteria as well, especially with the nasty flu that\u2019s been going around.\n\n\n\n
We love using THIS product in our trash cans and I think you\u2019ll love the scent just as much as I do!\n\n\n\n
If your garbage disposal smells foul, you shouldn\u2019t be too surprised. After all, the garbage disposal has rotting food inside of it, and those odors can leak into the home if they get stuck in the disposal.\n\n\n\n
My husband, the general contractor (recent client kitchen remodel below ;-)) has given me strict instructions to NEVER put things down the disposal and only use it for whatever is stuck on to plates and cookware. That tip in itself it\u2019s a great way to prevent that foul smell.\n\n\n\n
The best natural option to keep those odors away and keep your home smelling fresh is using citrus fruit! To freshen up your garbage disposal, just put lemon leftover rinds on it while it\u2019s still running.\n\n\n\n
Next, make sure you let cold water run for a while to make sure that all the lemon rinds make their way down. I also like to keep the blades fresh by grinding stale ice cubes that can smell in the disposal.\n\n\n\n
This one might sound silly, but you have probably had a similar problem.\n\n\n\n
The air in our home gets recirculated around continually, bringing all of those bad odors with it. If your air smells less than fresh, here\u2019s how I\u2019ll often fix it.\n\n\n\n
Season permitting, start by opening the windows and letting some fresh air inside. Next, add a few drops of your favorite essential oils to cotton balls and place them in a small bowl.\n\n\n\n
I like to use cinnamon or orange in my home, but you can use whatever scent you prefer. If you are going to burn some candles, try and select soy-based ones because they don\u2019t make the air as dirty as much as regular wax.\n\n\n\n
Another great way to get rid of odors naturally is by using essential oils in a spray bottle diluted with water.\n\n\n\n If you have pets in your home, your signature scent could end up being your pets!\n\n\n\n They leave their smell all over the house in the form of dander, making it difficult to get rid of. If you don\u2019t have time to bathe your pet but you still need to get rid of dog smell in your house, here\u2019s one of our favorite tips.\n\n\n\n Sprinkle some baking soda onto their fur, rub it in well, and then give them a thorough brushing. That will neutralize the odor and it\u2019s all-natural and won\u2019t bother your furry friend.\n\n\n\n You won\u2019t be just removing pet smell but you\u2019ll also be preventing it and making your home smell much cleaner!\n\n\n\n Your carpets lock in a lot of bad odors, especially if you have pets in the home. Removing that smell can be quite simple, actually. Grab your baking soda, sprinkle some of it in your carpet or rug, and let sit for about half an hour. After that time has passed, vacuum up all of it.\n\n\n\n And just like that, you find a chemical-free way to kill carpet odors!\n\n\n\n Make sure to keep any pets away from the treated area. Consuming baking soda can make them sick.\n\n\n\n You don\u2019t need to spray chemicals in your home to get rid of foul odors in your home. With these tips, you\u2019ll have a house that smells fresh and clean naturally.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Just wiping away dust and mopping the floor every now and then won\u2019t help to make your house cleaner and smell better.
