  1. Activated carbon. It perfectly absorbs moisture and odor. It is enough to take two old socks and pour a couple of crushed tablets into them.
  2. Baking soda. You can sprinkle baking soda inside the slippers and leave it overnight. In the morning, you can simply shake the soda out.
  3. Hydrogen peroxide or vinegar. Soak a cotton pad in one of the products and wipe the inside of the slippers.
  4. Tea or natural coffee. Put dry tea bags or coffee beans inside, and in the morning the unpleasant smell will disappear.
