Over time, linens and clothes that have been in the closet for a long time begin to emit a musty, damp smell.
Sometimes even washing doesn't help get rid of the unpleasant smell.
It is precisely this problem, which, you must admit, occurs quite often, that activated carbon helps to combat.
Most housewives believe that this kind of trouble can be prevented by placing a small container filled with activated carbon in the depths of the cabinet.
This drugstore product, firstly, removes unpleasant odours, and secondly, absorbs excess moisture from the air. This means that all textiles stored in the closet will be as fresh as if they had just been washed.
Before pouring the black tablets into a container (by the way, 2-3 pieces will be enough), they must be crushed.
In addition to coal, you can add a few drops of lavender essential oil to the container - this advice will be relevant for those who have thrown all their efforts into fighting moths.
Please note: this life hack will only work if you change the contents of the container every 3-4 weeks.
For reference
Activated carbon is a porous material produced from charcoal, coke from coal or oil, coconut shells and other carbon-containing materials.
