Everyone has a trash can and the bad smells that go with it. And yet there is an ultra easy parade to avoid this inconvenience.
Unless you have a vacuum, we all have a trash can in the kitchen. This is essential, because this is where we have the most things to throw away. The one that welcomes everything that is not paper or glass, recovers the leftover meals, dirt … And all that, it ferments and it smells strong. There are many tips to prevent it from giving off too many bad odors. The first, the most obvious, is to change regularly, even every day, your poubelle bag. However, it is not very ecological, nor very economical, especially if the bag is not full. It is preferable when you cook something that smells strong like seafood, fish, oyster shells or shrimp, put them in a smaller bag and throw them away just after to avoid hiring the whole house.
Others recommend washing the bottom and the edges of your trash can regularly. It is good advice, because sometimes when emptying the dishes, a drop falls on the sides and it is better to remove it so that it does not feel. But that does not prevent bad smells due to the garbage that is inside. The problem is therefore still not resolved. For layer trash cans, there are scented bags in the trade. The catch is that they are more expensive than others and that they do not sell everywhere. Fortunately, here is our save, her name is Alicia Martinez and is Spanish. On her Instagram account @ALY_DECO_HOME, she gives lots of precious advice. And precisely, she has something very clever to offer for foul smells. She takes a cotton where she pours a few drops (three at most) of her favorite essential oil, lavender, orange blossom, lemon or other and she places it under the trash bag. Thus, the perfume diffuses and neutralizes the unpleasant scents. And voila.
We told you. It’s simple and effective. Everything we love. And if you want to go even further, remember to ventilate the room regularly or put a small bowl of baking soda near the trash. It absorbs bad smells without saying anything, like a ninja of cleanliness. With these tips, your kitchen remains fresh, even when the waste settles there for a while.
