Work magic in your dishwasher with vinegar. Dishwashers do a lot of dirty work, and it’s possible for food particles, bacteria, and even mold to build up, leaving behind a funky smell. To remove the musty scent, cycle your dishwasher with 2 cups of white vinegar, a natural antibacterial solution, instead of detergent. Start up a simmer pot. To get fresh, enticing scents flowing through your house, boil a pot of water on the stove and add some of your favorite seasonal herbs, spices, and fruits. As the concoction simmers, your home will smell amazing. For a seasonal summer mix, try thyme and citrus! Soak it up. Did you know baking soda is famous for absorbing odors? All you have to do is pop open a container of baking soda or pour some into a mason jar and leave it in your car, room, refrigerator, shoes, or gym bag. You can even sprinkle some on your carpet and vacuum! The funky smells should disappear!

Do you ever catch a suspicious whiff when walking into your home or bathroom? Does your car have a funky, stale smell? Does the dog bed smell like a wet dog? Instead of relying on plug-in air fresheners and Lysol to cover up or alter foul odors, here are some great ways to freshen your home or car and banish nasty smells without lighting a candle! Let the fresh air in!

While it may seem very obvious, we often forget this simple tactic! Opening up the windows lets the stale air out and allows fresh air to circulate throughout your home. When trying to eliminate odors, this should always be your first step! Refresh your refrigerator with vanilla cotton balls. If your refrigerator stinks from a combination of different food smells or if something has spoiled, find the source of the stench and clean it up first. Then, dip a cotton ball in vanilla extract and place it on a small dish in the back of the fridge to give the space a fresh vanilla scent.
