How to make your home always smell nice: effective ways

No matter how carefully you try to keep your home smelling clean and fresh, unpleasant odors are hard to avoid. From mustiness in areas of high humidity to a real stench from long-standing garbage, this problem makes it difficult to live in peace and can even lead to health problems.

However, a few simple life hacks will help make your home fresh and cozy. Experts told us how to make sure your home always smells nice.

Method 1

Use coffee grounds to deodorize the refrigerator. You can also put a saucer of baking soda, but coffee grounds will work faster and more efficiently. You will need a container with used, dried coffee grounds. It will work as a natural air freshener thanks to the nitrogen that eliminates odors.

Method 2

Try a life hack with eucalyptus. Take fresh eucalyptus, secure the stems with a rubber band, and hang the bunch on the shower head. When you take a hot shower, the steam will create a pleasant and relaxing aromatherapy effect. The stems should last for two to three weeks, but if you want a stronger scent, mash the leaves to release more essential oil.

Method 3

Essential oils can also help fight stench. After adding a few drops of your favorite essential oil to a cotton ball, throw it in the container in front of the trash bag. As a bonus, some essential oils can help with other garbage-related problems: tea tree and citrus oils have antibacterial properties, peppermint oils can help repel rodents, and lavender oil will keep bugs away.

Method 4

Use vanilla extract. Preheat the oven to 150 °C. Then take the vanilla extract and pour a couple tablespoons into an ovenproof dish. Within 20 minutes, your home will be filled with a pleasant, delicate aroma.
