Getting rid of refrigerator smell
I don't know what happened in or fridge, but for the past week it has had a horribly bad smell that I can't get rid of. I've cleaned it out, top to bottom, washed everything, threw out anything that could be smelling and it still reeks! It's terrible. Anyone have this problem and come up with a solution?
Re: Getting rid of refrigerator smell
In these cases, after I've cleaned everything out, I either put a cup of white vinegar inside it over night (uncovered). And open box of baking soda often helps too (I always leave one in my fridge & change it out a few times/year).
good luck!
If soap doesn't work I usually follow up with a 1/2 water 1/2 vinegar spray and then wipe it down again.
Do you have an open box of baking soda in there? That will absorb some smell too.
We make the rockin' world go 'round.
I wonder what the source of the smell is. Could it be coming from your freezer or water line? Perhaps vacuum your coils (usually under the fridge).
I would wipe it down with a little bit of bleach diluted in water, and then put a box of baking soda in there to absorb odors.
Ugh, I hate when this happens! In my experience, baking soda does not work.
I had to use a bleach / hot water solution. It was the only thing that really killed the bacteria.
I totally emptied out the fridge, washed it down with the above solution and let it sit for an hour or so. THen I washed it down with just hot water to try to disipate the bleach smell.
could it be spoiled BM?
you could also try cleaning w/ lemon, actually cut a lemon and rub it all over
Mmmm, this is a good suggestion. We have an automatic ice dispenser and I know we've never emptied it. I'll try that too. Thanks!
you can put stuff outside since it's getting cold enough
