Regular table salt is useful not only in the kitchen, but also for shoe care.

The problem of unpleasant odor that appears in shoes is relevant not only for summer, but also for winter.

A little trick will solve this once and for all. After this trick, any shoes will smell better than a blooming rose bush.

The trick with salt

Of course, you shouldn't just pour salt into your shoe or sneaker. It's better to find old short socks, a fabric cover that has been lying around for years. You can sew a bag out of thin fabric. The main thing is that the salt doesn't spill.

In each such bag pour 3-4 tablespoons of salt, and then tie. Then apply 5 drops of your favorite essential oil to the fabric.

Then the bags are placed in the shoes. They are left for at least 2-3 hours, and it is better not to take them out all night. The salt will absorb the moisture, and the essential oil will kill the unpleasant smell.

The bags are then dried and can be used again. If you develop the habit of putting bags in your shoes every time, the problem of unpleasant odor in shoes will be solved forever.
