An effective life hack

A slow cooker is useful not only for cooking; this device can be used even in the process of cleaning.

The necessary ingredients:

• water
• baking soda
• essential oils.

Step-by-step instructions

1. To use this technique to eliminate unpleasant odors, you simply add 2 cups of water to the slow cooker.
2. Then add 6 tablespoons of baking soda and mix the ingredients thoroughly.
3. Turn on the slow cooker and set it to low without closing the lid. Let the appliance run for several hours.

This method will deodorize your home and help remove odors from the air. Remember that the slow cooker does not have to be used only in the kitchen. Feel free to take the appliance anywhere in your home where you want to remove odors.

For even fresher air and better aromas, add 2 to 5 drops of one of your favorite essential oils. Adding peppermint, lavender, or citrus oils will fill your home with wonderful aromas. As a bonus, some essential oils can also prevent pests.

If you don't have essential oils, you can add other ingredients to the mix instead. Use apple and orange peels, cranberries, cinnamon sticks, or cloves to spread fresh scents and make your home more cozy.
