in Old style MoneySaving
Just got home from work to find my daughter has burnt something in the microwave and there is a strong smell of smoke throughout the house. Any ideas how to get rid of it (OS or any other method would do).

Thanks

    maybe some bowls of bicarb around the kitchen/surrounding areas might absorb some of the smell? Not sure though,

    Bowls of vinegar usually do the trick.
