Dealing with an unpleasant smell in a house or apartment is sometimes surprisingly simple, but housewives continue to mask the problem with air fresheners.

There may be different reasons: someone is smoking in the apartment, or a damp smell is seeping from the basement into the apartment on the first floor, poor ventilation, etc.

All these problems can be eliminated with almost improvised means.

1. Essential oils

You can use anything as a base - cotton wool, soda, salt and other materials. Then you just need to soak them with essential oil and put them in the room where the problem is most pronounced. We periodically update the ether.

2. Gel option

This is already a creative process. To create a freshener, you will need gelatin, glycerin, essential oil, ground cinnamon. Dissolve gelatin in a glass of water, add 1 teaspoon of glycerin, essential oil, ½ teaspoon of cinnamon, stir. Pour the mixture into a jar and put it where it smells bad.

3. Flavored ice

This option will help out in the toilet room. You need to dissolve gelatin, separately make a solution of half a glass of vinegar (1/2 glass), 1 tbsp. salt and essential oil. Mix all the ingredients, pour into molds, freeze and throw the fragrance into the toilet tank.

4. Based on hydrogel

This material is well known to flower growers. Pour 25 drops of essential oil into a container (200 ml), add water up to ½ the volume, stir, add 40 hydrogel balls, add water, leave for 12 hours, closing the lid. Then all that remains is to simply open the container and enjoy the aroma.
