The kitchen is a source of unpleasant odors, and the palette can be very diverse. The source can be anywhere. Sewerage, trash can, ingrained soot and grease, and even the refrigerator.

Here's how experienced housewives fight unpleasant odors in the refrigerator.

The industry today offers a wide range of products that refresh the smell in a living space. Similar developments have even been created for the refrigerator.

But what could be simpler than folk tricks.

The smell in the refrigerator is caused by humidity, stored food, and spoiling vegetables or fruits.

And plastic has one unpleasant feature, due to which odors are absorbed, as a result of which the aromas become stronger.

You can combat this phenomenon with the help of a salty dishwashing sponge.

How to proceed

Take a clean and dry dishwashing sponge. Make a deep longitudinal cut on the side.

You need to pour ordinary table salt into the resulting cavity - about a tablespoon should fit.

That's all. The craft can be put away on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator, where it will collect excess moisture, and with it unpleasant odors.

We periodically update the “air freshener” and enjoy the freshness of the air without any spicy aromas.
