How to quickly freshen up a room: coffee grounds will help

We all know how nice it is to walk into a clean and fresh room. However, sometimes the smell of dampness, pets, or simply stale air is not so easy to get rid of.

If you don't have time to do a thorough cleaning and fully ventilate your apartment, there is one way to quickly freshen up your home. House Digest has shared a life hack that will certainly neutralize any unpleasant odors.

Many people start their mornings with coffee. It's incredibly nice to take a few minutes to enjoy a delicious drink right from the start of the day.

After the morning routine, coffee grounds remain. Usually, people just throw it in the trash because they don't know that it has many useful applications. It can be used as a fertilizer for plants, a natural skin scrub, or even an air freshener.

How to freshen up a room with coffee

Coffee not only has a pleasant aroma but also has absorbent properties, which makes it an ideal tool for neutralizing unpleasant odors.

There are several ways to freshen up a room with grounds. For example, you can simply put a small container or bags of natural fabric with coffee in a drawer or on a top shelf somewhere. In this way, the absorbent will not be visible, but it will continue to do its job.

If you need to quickly freshen up, for example, a bathroom before guests arrive, the best solution is to sprinkle coffee grounds on the floor, close the door, and leave it for 30-45 minutes. After that, the room will be fresh and will have an unobtrusive pleasant coffee aroma. All that remains is to vacuum up the grounds and enjoy the cleanliness.

Pets

For those who have pets, coffee grounds will be a real lifesaver. It is usually very difficult to get rid of the characteristic odor, but a natural absorbent will certainly do the trick.

However, you should be careful because coffee is toxic to pets. Therefore, make sure that your dog or cat will not run around when coffee grounds are scattered on the floor.
