How to get rid of unpleasant odors at home

Every home has its own specific smell. But what should we do if we feel that there is an aroma in our home that does not feel like fresh mountain air at all?

The aromas of the prepared dishes, the smell of tobacco smoke, moisture, etc. leave their mark. It is for this reason that we will now indicate the ways to get rid of already existing unpleasant odors and how to prevent them.

Regular cleaning – the best prevention against unpleasant odors in all corners of the home.

Guarantee of clean and fresh air – this is first of all regular cleaning

And not only because regular cleaning allows us to get rid of the dust that makes the air heavier, but also because the fact that detergents and cleaning agents with fragrances are also used, filling living spaces with pleasant fresh aromas.

It is very important to get rid of unusable old things in a timely manner and we should also not forget to empty the trash can regularly.

It is best to do this every day, whether it is full or not. Waste has the property of emitting unpleasant odors that can linger in the home for a long time.

One of the most effective remedies against unpleasant room odors is the potassium permanganate solution. During cleaning, wipe with it using a cloth, furniture, shelves, drawers. Stubborn “flavors” will be removed.

If you are bothered by the smells of your pet, use special products that are available in pet stores.

It is not recommended to use chlorine-containing preparations to remove the odors of your pet. Chlorine, although it kills various microbes, is also a toxic substance, so there is a risk that it could harm your four-legged friend.

Folk and modern methods of combating unpleasant odors

First of all, these are artificial fragrances:

• The various air fresheners;
• Aromatic oils;

Most of them fill living spaces with a pleasant aroma not only for hours, but for days and even weeks.

However, it should be remembered that artificial fragrances do not eradicate unpleasant odors, they only mask them, making the air heavier.
And in order not to have to use air fresheners in your home, your air needs to be fresh. And for this, as stated above, regular cleaning is necessary.

Creating flavoring agents is also possible at home. In addition, they will not only be more saturated, but will also be natural, without any chemicals and impurities.

Vanilla and cinnamon, tea, lightly roasted coffee beans can be used for this purpose. All these products can be put in small packages and placed all over the house.

If you do a short airing, they will fill your home with an almost imperceptible but incredibly pleasant aroma, without causing the air to be “heavy”.
