The kitchen is a hotbed of unpleasant odors for various reasons. Cooking, garbage storage, and occasional lapses in hygiene all contribute to the appearance of an unpleasant aroma. UAportal has told you that there are effective ways to deal with these unpleasant odors and keep your kitchen fresh.

Throw away the garbage

Don't wait until the trash can is overflowing – this is the main cause of unpleasant odors in the kitchen. To avoid this, make it a habit to throw away the waste every day.

The hood

To prevent the aroma of burnt food or other unpleasant odors from penetrating your living space, give preference to a high-quality range hood.

Ventilation

It is a little-known fact that it is very important to ventilate the kitchen after each cooking session. By opening the windows and allowing air to circulate, you create a fresh and cozy atmosphere in the kitchen.

Wash dishes immediately

Make it a habit to wash dishes and kitchen utensils immediately after use, rather than putting it off until the next day. Neglecting dirty dishes not only leads to the accumulation of unpleasant odors but also contributes to an untidy appearance.

Natural flavors

Three small but powerful allies in the fight against odors are baking soda, coffee, and activated charcoal. Surprisingly versatile, each of these absorbents can effectively neutralize unwanted odors. Just place them in open containers in different corners of the kitchen for constant odor control.
