This quick rinse helps eliminate odors and keeps the drains fresh without the need for harsh chemicals. Repeat monthly, and those lingering kitchen or bathroom odors will be a thing of the past.
11. Light a Scented Candle When Hosting


Guests come with blessings, gifts, and sometimes their own body (and shoe) odors. A few quality candles can instantly transform your home’s atmosphere, making it smell inviting and warm. Choose a subtle, high-quality scent that complements your home’s ambiance.
Lighting a candle in the entryway or living room for guests can set a welcoming tone. Look for candles made from natural ingredients to avoid any synthetic or chemical-heavy scents.
12. Regularly Clean Garbage Cans

Afterward, sprinkle a little baking soda at the bottom to absorb any future odors. This simple step can make a huge difference in maintaining an odor-free kitchen.
