Substitute and Solve – Tips to make stale closets smell fresh

Hello Reena,
I find the closets in our home always smell stale when we open the closet doors. I have bought the reed diffusers repeatedly only to find that they evaporate very quickly. I am back to square one. Can you help? Thank you, Lorraine
Hi Lorraine,
Here are a few hints to keep your closets smelling fresh: Store open bars of soap in the closet. Just like in the refrigerator, store an open box of baking soda inside of the closet to absorb odors. Fabric softener sheets tucked inside closets make excellent room fresheners. Other suggestions: Scented tea bags or potpourri, coffee beans in a sock, a bag of open activated charcoal, unlit fragrant candles. Or make your own air freshener. Into a spray bottle add one quarter cup of your favourite scented liquid fabric softener. Fill the remaining portion of the bottle with water. Spray in closets for a fresh scent. Or spray all fabrics in the closet with vodka; this will take away all musty scents
