How To Keep Your Bathroom Smelling Fresh
2

• It can be hard to keep your bathroom smelling
  fresh all year round, or even all day, for that
  matter! Even if you alone use your bathroom, or a
  family of ten, it can quickly begin smelling
  grotty, and since some of the smelliest
  activities in the home take place in it, it
  really is little surprise. There are the
  lingering odours of toilet activities, and then
  there are the other aromas that build up over
  time, and which are no less easy to eliminate.
• So, whats the solution?
• Minimizing unavoidable smells and preventing
  others from developing

• Since bathrooms are often full of steam from when
  we take showers and baths every day, damp can
  quickly build up and create the perfect habitat
  for bacteria, mold and mildew. If you can
  eliminate or minimise these smells, then the
  unavoidable aromas will also be reduced, and
  heres how you can do it
• Open bathroom windows frequently to allow air to
  circulate and steam to dissipate
• Regularly wash and sanitize towels, rugs, mats
  and even the curtains of your shower or windows
• Unblock your bathroom drains often, as this will
  help water to flow down them better and help them
  to smell fresher for longer

• Remember to dry off any bottles or containers
  that may be sitting inside your shower stall or
  on countertops, as these can accumulate moisture
  and encourage nasty and foul-smelling bacteria to
  grow and thrive.
• Always keep a clean toilet and use plenty of
  bleach to eliminate harmful germs and bacteria
  that may permeate the air every time you flush or
  whenever the toilet lid is left up.
• Soap scum that builds up in showers and bath tubs
  may not smell itself, but it will attract smelly
  gunk such as hair, skin and oil that will leave a
  nasty odour over time.

5

• Use bleach mixed with water to help get rid of
  mold and mildew that will doubtless have begun to
  build up on the grouting and caulk in your
  bathroom. Left to grow and multiply, this will
  quickly begin to smell foul and look unpleasant,
  too.
• Baking soda can be a great, cheap and
  environmentally friendly product for deodorizing
  drains, and when you add a cup to each of your
  sink and tub drains, leave it for a couple of
  hours before adding a cup of white vinegar and
  then rinse with hot water a few minutes later,
  youll find that smelly gunk trapped in your
  drains will have been effectively washed away.
  Try to repeat this process at least once a month.

• A few drops of your favourite essential oil, when
  added to some pot pourri or even a few cotton
  balls in a dish, can quickly have your bathroom
  smelling fresh and inviting. Since essential oils
  are not expensive, you can easily afford to buy a
  bottle each week and ensure that your bathroom
  never pongs!
• However, if your bathroom is beyond the point
  where a few cleaning tips will help freshen it
  up, it may be time to call in the professionals
  and have them get this essential room in your
  home back to a point where it doesnt smell like
  a sewer, and look like a mold infested hell hole.
