    Odour Buster

    Hello,

    We live in a 30yr old villa and DD closet/wardrobe smells old, wondering if anyone has

    tips on eliminating odour.

    A box of open bicarb soda or those hippo smell absorber things from the supermarket.

    Otherwise try those drawer liners and leave them around to see if that helps.

    or get an orange & some cloves, stick the cloves into the orange so it is covered, hang that up in the wardrobe

    I'd try airing it out, on a breezy dry day, open the empty wardrobe, open the windows and close the door, let it air for a few hours, then wipe it down with some essential oil (eucalyptus or tea tree or lavender), let it air for an hour or so more (to allow the essential oil smell to lessen), then have some bicarb in its box in there.

    essential oils sounds good, natural cleaning solutions are a good idea.Cheers.
