Using air purifiers can help manage pollution and dust particles that enter your house. They help to reduce exposure to indoor pollutants and air-borne illnesses. Not just that, air purifiers trap the lingering, smelly particles from your house and leave it smelling naturally good. 

Ventilation

Proper ventilation is extremely important to help your home get rid of smoke, moisture, cooking odours and indoor pollutants. Structural ventilation is necessary in a house as it manages heat levels, and keeps your home free of moisture, which is one of the factors for bad smell. 

Use Baking Soda

Take half a cup of baking soda in a jar and add 5-6 drops of essential oil into it. Stir the mixture and close the lid of the jar. Poke some holes in the lid and place the jar in your room, cabinets, kitchen and small spaces to deodorise the areas.
