Kako da se oslobodite neprijatnih mirisa u vašem domu
Ne postoji ništa neprijatije od hodanja po kući sa lošim mirisom. Postoje mnoge stvari koje mogu da doprinesu kući da je manje mirisna. Kućni ljubimci, dim, buđ i plesan, i kuvanje mogu stvarati mirise koji prožimaju vazduh i šire se okolo. Ovi mirisi će na kraju da prodiru u zidove, tepihe i nameštaj. Podelićemo neke jednostavne korake da se spreče i uklone ovi potencijalno neprijatni mirisi. * Otvorite prozore! Najbolji poklon koji možete dati svom domu je dar svežeg vazduha. Kad god je moguće otvorite prozore i pustite protok vazduha. Čak i na hladnom danu, otvorite prozore na par minuta. Svež vazduh brzo i, naravno, uklanja neprijatne mirise u vazduhu poput onih od duvanskog dima i kuvanja. * Usisavanje. Redovno čišćenje podova, tepiha i mebla, kao što su kauči i zavese će pomoći da vaša soba miriše sveže. * Redovno čistite tvrde podloge sjajne boje, čvrste podove, radne površine, sudopere i stolove sa sapunom i vodom ili blagim sredstvom za čišćenje koje odgovara površini koja se čisti. Koristeći mešavinu jednakih količina sirćeta i vode, možete da napravite sopstveni čistač koji je ekološki, jeftin i efikasan za sve površine. Limun, umesto sirćeta, ima antibiotska svojstva. Za one oblasti u kojima mirisi mogu da se akumuliraju, kao što su kupatila i kuhinje, čišćenje može biti rešenje za efikasno uklanjanju onih stvarno teških mirisa. * Pametne ideje. Očistite sijalice. Prljavština i masnoća mogu da se akumuliraju na sijalicama i toplota povećava ove mirise. S vremena na vreme, sa blago vlažnom krpom, obrišite sijalice. Morate biti oprezni da ne dozvolite da vlažna tkanina dodiruje metalni deo sijalice. * Filtrirajte. Očistite i promenite filtere za grejanje i hlađenje. Ovo ne samo da će poboljšati kvalitet vazduha, već će učiniti da vaši sistemi grejanja i hlađenja budu mnogo efikasniji. Takođe budite sigurni da ste proverili i zamenili filter vašeg usisivača. * Prefarbajte. Kada se čini da ste pokušali sve i da ništa ne deluje, prefarbajte svoj prostor. Sveža boja će pokriti stare boje i osloboditi od loših mirisa.There’s nothing less inviting than walking into a home with a bad smell. There are many things that can contribute to a home’s less than rosy scent. Pets, smoke, mold and mildew, and cooking can create odors that permeate the air and linger around. These odors will eventually penetrate into the walls, carpeting and furniture. I will share some simple steps to help prevent and remove these potentially offensive odors.* Open your windows! The best gift you can give your home is the gift of fresh air. Whenever possible open the windows and let the air flow through. Even on a cold day, open your windows for a few minutes. Fresh air quickly and naturally removes airborne odors like those from cigarette smoke and cooking.* Vacuum. Regular cleaning of floors, carpets and upholstery such as couches and curtains will help keep your room smelling fresh. To carpeting you can add a room deodorizer, or baking soda. Simply sprinkle onto rugs and carpeting and let sit long enough to absorb the oil and dirt before you vacuum.* Wash. Clean hard surfaces regularly. Glossy paint, hard flooring, countertops, sinks and tables with soap and water or a mild cleaner that is appropriate for the surface being cleaned. Using a mixture of equal parts white vinegar and water, you can create your own cleaner that is environmentally friendly, inexpensive and effective for all surfaces. Lemon, substituted for the vinegar, also has antibiotic properties. For those areas where odors can really accumulate, such as bathrooms and kitchens, a cleaning solution may be more effective in removing those really tough odors. Bleach whitens and it is also effective in killing and removing mold spores.* Bright ideas. Clean light bulbs. Dirt and oils can accumulate on lightbulbs and the heat accentuates these odors. From time to time with a lightly damp cloth, wipe the lightbulb clean. Do be careful to not let the damp cloth touch the metal part of the bulb.* Filter it. Clean and change your filters in your heating and cooling systems. This will not only improve air quality,but it will make your heating and cooling systems much more efficient. Also be sure to check and replace the filter in your vacuum cleaner.* Repaint. When it seems that you have tried everything and nothing seems to work, repaint your space. The fresh paint will cover the old paint and get rid of the bad odors associated with it.
