Nothing will make people avoid your house faster than bad odors. You can usually avoid stale smells by cleaning your house regularly. But if you have dogs, a teenage son, or a love of garlic or fried foods, no amount of cleaning will get those smells out of the carpet or drapes.
You could use a name brand air freshener, but they can run you anywhere from $3 to $10 per bottle depending on the brand. It might not sound like much, but it really adds up over time.
The youtuber OnePotChef has put down his pots and pans to teach you a simple and cheap way to replace those pricey air fresheners. All you need to do it are some essential oils (which you can find on amazon for $3 or less), some water, and a spray bottle.
This quick tip takes the price of air freshener down to less than 5 cents per bottle. The OnePotChef is primarily a cooking channel, but there’s way more cool tip videos like these in his video library. Be sure to check him out!
