Eliminating household odors
With the holiday season upon us, a big part of seasonal house cleaning is
to remove stale odors and replace them with warm, inviting scents such as
cinnamon pinecone, or Chocolate chip cookies. The old-fashioned way to make a
difference is to air out your home by opening windows. This is somewhat effective
in letting in fresh air and removing stale smells. In order to maintain fresh scents
in your home, you need to provide consistent airflow. Using simple logic, make
a list of problem areas that tend to collect odors. You are probably already aware
of the problem areas of your home. The following suggestions are affordable and
practical ideas to help you add to your odor-fighting arsenal.
Fabric softener sheets
- Strategically placing a dryer sheet in closets, storage areas, and drawers can keep these areas fresh smelling.
- The simple act of opening doors or drawers will pleasantly release clean-scented aromas to chase away stale-smelling odors.
- This time of year, you may even find some holiday themed scents such as pine or apple-cinnamon.
- Placing them over air vents can be effective because dryer sheets become active when exposed to heat or movement.
- Placing them in a vacuum cleaner bag or over the heap filter allows you to share a pleasant aroma while you are vacuuming your home.
- Tucking a scented dryer sheet in any hidden area will provide a subtle and pleasant aroma for you and your guests.
