Preventing Odors and Buildup at Home

Foul odors at home can turn the stomach of almost anyone within a radius to smell it --
and it can really make your home feel anything but cozy! However with that in mind, there
are things you can do to combat the issue of a foul odor or less than appealing buildup
within the house. Here are a few things you can try to get rid of the odors.

Check Your Garbages

More often than not, your garbage contributes to most of the foul odors found in a home.
If you’ve been unsuccessfully emptying the bin and cleaning out the inside, you might be
experiencing a foul odor from items and liquids left behind, which can be equally as gross!
Make sure to thoroughly give these a good washing every once in a while to prevent it from
happening.

Drains & Moisture

If your drains are backed up in any way, that probably means something inside is causing
it to be slow -- which means whatever is in the pipe, has also likely gone bad. Instead of letting
that become an issue or trying to mask it, have some professional plumbing work conducted
and see if that helps. Additionally, excess moisture in your home might be the reason your
home smells musty, as standing water can breed mold growth. 

Sweet Scents

Some older homes just tend to have their own smells, and if you’re new to the building,
there’s usually only a few ways to fix that. Baking bread, lighting candles, cleaning walls and
carpets are all smaller ideas that can help you get rid of foul odors and promote better ones
from being in the house.
