As you probably know, baking soda absorbs bad odors.
It is therefore the ideal ingredient to deodorize your home.
In addition to smelling good, lemon essential oil is an excellent antiseptic. A powerful duo!
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda
- 5 drops of lemon essential oil
- 1 vaporizer
- 1 air purifier (optional)
- Heat the equivalent of 2 cups of water.
- Pour the water into a bowl
- Add the baking soda to the bowl.
- Mix so that the baking soda dissolves well in the water.
- Once done, add the lemon juice.
- Transfer your mixture to a vaporizer.
- Diffuse this good lemony smell in your home.
Ideal for removing bad smells from the kitchen or toilets!
You can also replace the lemon essential oil with 1 tablespoon of white vinegar or 1 teaspoon of lemon juice.
You can also use an air purifier instead of the vaporizer.
Here is another great natural recipe so that your home smells good without your whole family breathing in weird products.
The advantage of this homemade air freshener is that you can find almost all the ingredients in your garden.
- 1 handful of citrus peel (lemons, oranges...)
- rosemary
- thyme or peppermint
- 1 spray bottle (optional)
- Place the aromatic herbs and citrus peel in a pot full of water.
- Heat it until boiling.
- Boil for 15 min.
- Once the time has elapsed, strain the decoction with a strainer.
- Transfer the decoction to a spray.
That way you can diffuse the good smells wherever you want in the house (and even in the car).
Practical and so economical, isn't it? And you are sure that there are no toxic products in your air freshener.
In addition, when you boil the water, the steam will circulate in the kitchen and the house, and chasing away bad smells !
Don't forget to keep your eco-friendly plant air freshener in the fridge.
This homemade air freshener recipe is more unusual than the others since it requires the use of strong alcohol.
For this deodorant recipe, you have to be a little more patient, because you have to let the ingredients macerate in alcohol.
- fragrant plants (rosemary, thyme, peppermint, eucalyptus leaves...)
- strong alcohol (gin, vodka or fruit alcohol)
- hermetic jar
- fine sieve
- vaporizer
- Put the aromatic plants of your choice in the jar.
- Then pour the alcohol into the jar until it is filled to the brim.
- Now, wait for 3 weeks for the alcohol to soak up the essences of the aromatic plants.
- Once this time has elapsed, filter the mixture and fill your spray.
- All you have to do is spray it in the kitchen, living room, in the toilet or on the fabrics.
You see ! No need to buy Febreze.
Your homemade air fresheners are just as effective, less expensive and have no toxic products !
And your home smells naturally good.
