For many people, normalizing the air in their apartment is extremely important.

If there is an unpleasant smell in the house, it always creates the impression of the housewife’s sloppiness.

In order to avoid such negative associations, it is worth knowing a few simple rules.

What do they consist of?

Do a thorough cleaning

If you don't know exactly what caused the unpleasant or musty air, then it's best to do a thorough cleaning of the entire apartment.

Wash the trash can and toilet thoroughly, and clean the pipes if possible.

Upholstered furniture, carpets, curtains

Often, it is the textiles that are the source of the characteristic musty smell, which is difficult to eliminate. You can try simply washing the curtains, and thoroughly vacuuming the carpet and upholstered furniture.

Then we spread soda on them, leave them for a few hours and vacuum them again.

Other secrets

It is absolutely necessary to send home-made aromatic sachets to the cabinets. They are filled with herbs, spices, citrus peels, and "seasoned" with essential oils.

It is also worth sending an odor "absorber" in the refrigerator in the form of soda or activated carbon. It is also worth mastering aromatherapy, which will help not only improve the smell, but also lift your mood.
