Don’t let bad odors spread throughout the fridge
The fish kept in the fridge always gives off a strong smell, and it spreads throughout the refrigerator, and it is quite annoying.
How to remove that smell from the refrigerator?
- The first thing we must do is thaw the freezer and take out all the food both in the fridge and in the freezer. We must keep it cold, it can be in a portable cooler while cleaning.
- To clean the freezer and the refrigerator, once defrosted we can use vinegar or lemon to dissipate the smell.
- Fill half a cup of ground coffee beans and put a cup on each shelf of the refrigerator. This helps absorb the smell.
- These cups with coffee should be kept several hours even overnight, in case the smell persists, the operation should be repeated with new grains until the odor disappears.
- Another method is to put newspaper with charcoal that has not been used and leave it for a while, both elements absorb the bad smell of the fish.
- A method that helps remove odors and maintain moisture is a container with baking soda.
- A good and economic system is the use of vinegar to clean the refrigerator, but this should be done once we have applied some of the options to remove the fish smell. Cleaning with vinegar will give the final touch to make our fridge clean and without the smell.
- Mix half a bottle of vinegar (white vinegar) with a little water, this solution will serve not only to clean your fridge inside and out but all the appliances in your kitchen.
- To make cleaning more effective, all mobile parts should be removed, such as shelves and drawers, and cleaned with the solution with a towel, the parts that can not be removed are cleaned with a towel.
