How to make your bedroom always smell fresh: simple tricks

The bedroom is a place where we rest, relax, and gain strength. It's also where we spend most of our lives during sleep.

To feel good, it is important that the bedroom has a pleasant atmosphere and the air is clean and fresh. Good Housekeeping has told you how to make this room fragrant and cozy.

Follow these seven tips so you can truly relax and recharge in a fresh and clean bedroom.

Open windows and doors

Fresh air plays a key role in ensuring a good night's sleep. Therefore, periodically open all windows and doors to thoroughly ventilate your bedroom.

This will also help get rid of any moisture that has accumulated overnight.

Invest in an air purifier

Air purifiers do more than just remove dust and dirt from the air. Thanks to the carbon layer that is part of the filter, they also deodorize the room.

Change your bedding more often

Even if you only go to bed after a shower, your bedding still absorbs sebum, sweat from your body during sleep, and so on. Therefore, it needs to be changed regularly to keep the bedroom clean and fresh.

Experts recommend washing bedding at least once every two weeks at a temperature of at least 60 degrees. If you have pets, you should do it more often.

Clean up the dust

Dust accumulation can also contribute to unpleasant musty odors in the bedroom. However, this problem is easy to get rid of if you vacuum and dust regularly, even in hard-to-reach places.

Get rid of clutter

Clutter not only accumulates dust but also restricts airflow, which contributes to musty odors. Take the time to organize your bedroom and make it look spacious.

Figure out the source of the odor

If your room has a specific odor, then airing and air fresheners will not be enough. You need to deal with the source of the odor first. Perhaps old furniture or a laundry basket should be replaced. Also, if you have your pets' beds in the bedroom, they can emit an unpleasant odor, so you should wash them regularly.

Use air fresheners

Air fresheners, diffusers, scented candles, essential oils, etc. can fill the room with an unobtrusive, soothing scent.
