Smell does not disappear simply by covering or covering. If the cause of the odor is not removed, the odor occurs again over time. The real solution is not deodorant, but fundamental cause management.
1. Clean food residue thoroughly
Food waste is the main cause of the smell of the house. Food left in kitchen sinks, trash cans, and refrigerators grow mold and germs, causing odors. Dispose of food waste in an airtight container every day and wash the sink with dishwashing detergent. The refrigerator is organized periodically, removing expired food, and cleaning the shelves with disinfectant. If you manage food thoroughly, you can reduce the smell by more than half.
2. Cleaning to eliminate odor causes
The kitchen, bathroom, and shoe rack are spaces where odors are easily accumulated. Let's empty the kitchen trash bin every day and wipe the inside with disinfectant. Clean the toilet drain thoroughly with a cleaning agent, and use a drain cover to prevent foreign substances from entering. The shoe rack opens the door twice a week to ventilate, and a desiccant is added to the inside of the shoe to reduce the smell. Regular cleaning is the surest way to prevent odors.
3. air circulation by ventilation
Frequent circulation of indoor air is much more effective than deodorant. If you open the window for 10 to 15 minutes two to three times a day, the smell does not accumulate. Let's make a ventilation routine in time for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The kitchen or bathroom with a ventilator is operated for more than 10 minutes after use to release moisture and smell. Even if the weather is cloudy, ventilation, even if it is short, greatly improves air quality.
4. Prevention of mold with moisture management
Moisture is the root cause of mold and odor. Bathrooms, laundry rooms, and cellars are particularly humid spaces. Use a dehumidifier or dehumidifier, and wipe the bathroom floor with a dry towel after a shower. Wet towels are immediately hung on a drying rack or dried with a dryer to prevent bacterial growth. Turning the ventilator frequently and opening the window to circulate air can reduce moisture and smell at the same time.
5. Improve washing and drying habits
The smell of clothes, bedding, and towels must be completely dried after washing. If stored in a semi-dry state, mold and odor become severe. When dried in the sun, ultraviolet rays provide a natural sterilization effect to remove odors. Let's clean the inside of the washing machine as well, open the door and dry it after washing. Even when using a dryer, you can prevent odors by storing clothes after they are completely dry.
6. Blocking odors with object management
Frequently used items such as shoes, bags, and sofas tend to smell easily. Let's keep our shoes in a well-ventilated place. The bag removes food crumbs or dust, and puts a desiccant to manage moisture. Sofas and cushions are vacuumed to remove dust, and quarterly washing of the cover prevents the smell from spreading. If you make product management a part of your daily life, the whole house will be refreshed.
Keeping pet supplies clean
Pet beds, food bowls, and toys are the hidden causes of smell. Wash the bed once a week and wash the feed bowl daily to remove food residue. Carpet or rugs with pet hair are frequently cleaned with a vacuum, and it is effective to use a hair removal roller. Let's also take pet baths regularly to reduce the smell of fur and sebum. Regular supply management keeps the air in the house clear.
Deodorant is only a temporary measure, and the real solution is to eliminate the cause. If you take care of it little by little every day, you can maintain a refreshing home without deodorant. From today, let's check the cause of odor and create a clean living environment.
