Odor Control

Musty-smelling bath towels should be deodorized by machine washing. Add 1/2 cup baking soda to the rinse cycle.

To add a perpetual air freshener to the toilet area:

  • Keep baking soda in a pretty dish on the back of the tank.
  • Add your favorite scented bath salts to the mix, as well.
  • Change every 3 months.

For ongoing odor control:

  • Add baking soda to the toe of old pantyhose or nylon knee-highs, tie, and cut off the excess stocking. Hang the stocking around the pipes under the sink.
  • Sprinkle baking soda in the bathroom trash can after each emptying.
