What to add to your vacuum cleaner to get rid of odour: instant results

A vacuum cleaner is an indispensable household helper, but sometimes problems arise with its operation. In addition to technical breakdowns, it can also cause an unpleasant smell that appears as soon as you switch on the appliance.

To make cleaning easier and the vacuum cleaner less of a hassle, experts advise trying an interesting life hack: using laundry detergent. OBOZREVATEL figured out exactly how.

Why put laundry detergent in the dust cup

An unpleasant smell can come from a special container for collecting dust. Before buying a new vacuum cleaner, housewives should try to get rid of the smell on their own.

First of all, clean the dust cup of debris. If possible, wash and dry it.

Next, take the washing powder and pour it into the vacuum cleaner container. Do not fill the entire container with powder, two tablespoons will be enough.

This will get rid of unpleasant odours for a long time, and the cleaning process will become much more pleasant.
