4 Natural Methods To Refresh The Smell Of Your Home

Blog· Decor

5 Apr

A fresh-smelling home lifts your spirits and calms your nerves. Whether you’re hosting a dinner party, hiding pet odor, or simply refreshing your space, natural methods allow you to purify and deodorize in an affordable and healthy way. Keeping your home smelling fresh and clean requires dedication, but it’s possible to maintain a crisp, clean scent using entirely natural methods.

Houseplants improve air quality by filtering out harmful chemicals that get into your home in various ways, such as through paints, varnishes, carpets, detergents, and furnishings. In fact, plants are so good at removing odors and improving air quality that NASA recommends using them.

  • English ivy removes formaldehyde from the air and is easy to grow.
  • Spider plants filter carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, and xylene and can live for decades.
  • Peace lilies fight acetone, benzene, formaldehyde, and alcohols and are both low-maintenance and beautiful.

Plants cleanse the air while promoting a comfortable, inviting environment. They create a healthier living space and provide an attractive, inexpensive way to decorate your home.

Natural Carpet Deodorizer

Rugs and carpets tend to absorb odors that vacuuming alone can’t eliminate. To combat this problem, make your own carpet deodorizer. Mix 1 cup of baking soda with 20 to 30 drops of your favorite essential oil. Pour the mixture into a shaker bottle with an incorporated sifter, and sprinkle it onto all your rugs and carpets. Let the mixture sit for at least 30 minutes before vacuuming. It will deodorize your carpet and leave your home smelling fresh and clean.

Natural Room Spray

Combine 4 ounces of distilled water with about 75 drops of your favorite essential oil in a spray bottle. Shake well, then spritz the mixture throughout your home. This room spray also freshens linens, but some essential oils stain, so test it on a hidden area of your linens first. This spray works as a deodorizer for carpeted areas of automobiles as well.

Spritz a little spray on a rag or dust mop to tidy up your home’s hard surfaces. You’ll rid your home of dust while freshening up its scent.

Diffusers  

Diffusers disperse the scent of essential oils throughout an area. They purify and disinfect the environment, removing odors and improving air quality. Choose your favorite essential oil or oil blend and combine it with water to get the most out of your diffuser.

  • Tea tree, cypress, and lavender essential oils blended together provide a crisp, clean scent.
  • Lemon oil purifies the air while increasing alertness.
  • Eucalyptus oil deodorizes the air and helps alleviate congestion — it’s a good oil to use during cold and flu season.

Diffusers provide an excellent way to banish odors from your home. They purify, cleanse, and deodorize in a healthy, natural way.

If you spend a lot of time at home, it’s easy to become accustomed to unpleasant, unhealthy odors that visitors can detect right away, so it’s important to make sure the air in your home is crisp, clean, and pure. Natural methods can eliminate odors and deodorize without any of the negative effects associated with many chemical-based cleansers.
