You will need a clean, dry dishwashing sponge. Using scissors or a knife, carefully make a longitudinal cut. Pour table salt into the resulting pocket. The amount of salt depends on the size of the sponge, usually one tablespoon is enough.

Put the sponge on the bottom shelf. After a while, it will absorb excess moisture and neutralize unpleasant odors. Change the sponge with salt regularly.
