My fridge smells - how to make it smell better

lonestarfan

Not sure where to post this so I'm trying here and on the in the home board. Does anyone have any tips on what I should put in my fridge to make it smell nice. It smells really bad at the moment when I open the door. It fills the air and lingers for quite some time. Its a combination of being away, of Camembert, sour milk, garlic, chopped onions and a few things that have gone off lol! Thanks a lot.

squeeze half a lemon out, fill it with salt and keep it in the fridge, it will absorb the odours.

If the half-lemon doesn't work a small bowl filled with bicarb will

This may be a bit left-field, somewhat wacky, but try throwing out the off/rotten items and cleaning the fridge?

Oh no, don't be silly, just ignore any mould/fungus growth etc and stick an anti smelly thing in, people don't clean fridges out nowadays ;-) nobody has time, they are all to busy signing on/working for nothing to appease the jobcentre or trying to eak out peanuts of income by speed reading posts on here............... :rotfl:

The bicarb has always worked for me, its far better than any of those so-called fridge fresheners that you can but.
