What should we do? Obviously, first, we need to find the source of the stinky smell. There is probably something spoiled or rotten that needs to be thrown away. It is not healthy as well to keep spoiled food in the fridge. So, whether you like it or not, you have to declutter your fridge. The fridge is undeniably one of the most convenient appliances we have at home. We can store different kinds of food items in the fridge to keep them from spoiling. We can simply buy our groceries and stuff them in the fridge until we are ready to consume them. We keep our leftovers in the fridge to avoid waste. The fridge keeps our food fresh and safe for consumption. Well, not always for a long time. Most foods do not have a very long shelf life. Soon, the fridge becomes full of leftovers and other food items without us noticing it. When we open the fridge, we smell the stench of garlic, leftovers, or worse, spoiled food. For some reason, these unpleasant smells seem to invade all the other food in the fridge, even the water, thus affecting the taste. That's not really good, is it?

The next step is the fun part. Keep your fridge smelling fresh and clean with a homemade fridge deodorizer using Orange oil. The best thing about this deodorizer is it is all-natural. We don't want to put any commercial deodorizer in our fridge that may contain toxic ingredients that can possibly mix with our food.
Baking soda is a popular kitchen item that absorbs odor. Orange essential oil is a good choice as a fridge deodorizer because we don't want our fridge to smell like flowers or mint. It is better to use essential oils with scents that are not too overpowering. It is best to choose citrus scents like orange to deodorize the fridge.
Follow these simple steps to make homemade fridge deodorizer with Orange essential oil.
1. Place baking soda in the jar or in the box.
2. Add the essential oil and stir well to distribute evenly.
3. Place the open jar or box in the back of the fridge.
The baking soda and the essential oil mixture will make your fridge smell fresh and clean without an overpowering scent. Remember to periodically stir the baking soda to release the scent of the Orange essential oil. A few drops of essential oil can be added when the scent starts to fade. However, it is better to replace the baking soda and essential oil mixture with a new one after 3 to 4 months. Why don’t you try it out now?
