Before you begin to combat odors in your home, you need to find out the cause of the odor and locate the source.

Mostly it is the kitchen or bathroom, but each case is individual, and other options should not be excluded. Housewives were given several tips on how to combat the smell.

Kitchen

Let's start with the trash can. The trash needs to be taken out every day, and the can periodically rinsed. You can sprinkle some soda on the bottom - and the problem with the smell will be solved.

You can clean your microwave without much effort by heating a glass of water with lemon juice for 30 seconds.

Place a saucer of baking soda or crushed activated carbon in the refrigerator; these absorb odors well.

Bathroom

The cause of the smell is cat litter boxes, laundry baskets, uncleaned plumbing and sewerage systems, and the washing machine.

Living rooms

Here, the source of the unpleasant smell can be wardrobes with clothes and linens, as well as home textiles.

Therefore, clean clothes are stored separately from those that are worn.

How to fight

Once the cause is eliminated, you can fill your apartment with pleasant aromas.

The easiest way is to place saucers with coffee beans, cinnamon, and citrus fruits in the corners.

Table vinegar is also excellent at combating odors, and it evaporates very quickly.
