How to Keep Your Home Smelling Fresh

Maintaining a fresh-smelling home goes beyond air fresheners; it’s about tackling the source of odours for a long-lasting clean. Here are some effective tips on how to keep your home smelling fresh by eliminating odours in key areas like kitchens, bathrooms, carpets, and furniture.

Kitchens

  • Cooking odours can linger, so be sure to clean surfaces after each meal, especially countertops and stovetops. 
  • Empty your bin regularly and wipe down the bin to prevent odour build-up. 
  • Once a month, deep clean your fridge and wipe down shelves to remove any stale food smells.

Bathrooms

Bathrooms are prone to moisture and mildew, both of which can lead to unpleasant odours. 

  • Keep your bathroom smelling fresh by cleaning surfaces weekly, scrubbing the toilet, sink, and shower. 
  • Ventilate the room by turning on the fan or opening a window after showers to reduce moisture. 
  • Using a disinfectant spray or cleaner will also help keep the space fresh and odour-free.

Carpets

Carpets can trap odours from pets, shoes, and spills. 

  • Vacuum frequently and use a gentle carpet cleaner. 
  • A designated area for removing shoes can help maintain cleaner carpets and minimise the need for frequent deep cleaning. 
  • Groom your pets regularly to minimise shedding and dander, and placing mats or blankets in their favourite lounging spots.

However, for a deep clean, it’s best to hire a professional carpet cleaning service. Regular deep cleaning removes odours embedded in the fibres, refreshing your carpets and leaving them smelling like new. For a deep, thorough clean you can trust, contact our partner in cleaning, Drytron, your carpet cleaning professionals.

By following these tips, you’ll eliminate hidden sources of odour and keep your home smelling fresh.
