We broke down the top ways to get rid of unwanted smells to ensure that your house is the fragrant nirvana that’ll have others begging to know how you manage it.
Root Causes of Unwanted Household Odors
Did you know that the number one cause of undesirable odors is caused by moisture? Those who live in humid climates need to take steps to ensure there are no places where moisture can get trapped.
Other common sources of bad smells include:
- Pets, litter trays, and their bedding
- Trash cans, food waste, and spills
- Sink disposal units
- Refrigerators
- Diaper bins
- Soft furnishings
- Carpets
- Cooking smells
Initial Steps To Remove Bad Smells
Starting with the most obvious, open the windows! Adequate ventilation allows odors out and freshness in. If you live with high humidity, or have damp areas of the house, use moisture absorbing crystals or consider purchasing a dehumidifier.
Hotel Collection scents are quite powerful and may be able to cover any odor, however it’s still best to get rid of any funky smells. Wash pet bedding regularly, use deodorizing litter in cat trays, and clean high-odor areas such as refrigerators, trash cans, and the like frequently. Steam clean upholstery and carpets annually, and regularly launder soft furnishings.
Choose Your Scenting Solution
Once you’ve targeted and removed the source of unwanted odors, it’s time to introduce the desired aroma. Not only does this make for a wonderful environment in which to live, it also adds that “wow” factor when welcoming anyone into your home.
There are various options for this, but Hotel Collection recommends avoiding “cover-up” methods such as plugins, or poor-quality candles. Not only are these short-lived, but they also add a chemical odor to the air that’s often far from pleasant.
Our wide range of scenting options provide the perfect solution for any space.
