3 household items that help rid plastic containers of smelly odors

Green Living Tip

Tip 1:

Baking soda – Mix the desired amount of baking soda and water to make a paste. Cover the interior of the container with the paste and set aside for at least 24 hours. Rinse and repeat if needed.

Tip 2:

Used coffee grounds- put wet or dry grounds in container and let it sit overnight. ~ Bonus smells like coffee :)

Tip 3:

Lemon – Rub the interior to the container with a halved lemon. Rinse and repeat if necessary.

Recommendation:

Consider transitioning to glass containers. They don't absorb odor and are better for your health and the environment.
