Does your home have a funky smell that just won’t seem to leave? Then you’re in the right place, as this guide contains some of the best steps that you can follow to help your home take on the most refreshing, delicious scent ever. So, what are you waiting for? Read on to discover more!

Clean Your Carpet 

One of the most important steps that you need to follow regularly if you want to maintain a nice scent inside your home is to clean your carpet. Carpet cleaning doesn’t just mean vacuuming every now and then – you need to utilize a dedicated carpet cleaning service that will wash and dry your carpets using specific devices and chemicals that are made especially to scrub between the fibers and get rid of dirt and grime! You should aim to clean your carpet every 3-6 months, depending on a few key factors. If you have children or pets, then you should be washing your carpet more frequently. If you fail to clean your carpet on a regular basis then your home will no doubt take on a foul smell, as odors will stick to the fabric and make any room take on a musty, unwelcoming scent.

Open A Couple Of Windows

When was the last time you opened a window inside your home? If you can’t remember, then there’s no wonder your home is a little stinky. Stale air can no doubt have a horrible smell, especially after you’ve been cooking, using the bathroom and sleeping for days or even weeks inside your home without changing the air. Deciding to open a couple of windows to allow a bit of a breeze to flow through your home is the best option, and it’s a good idea to do this in the early morning before any car exhaust fumes and other nasty smells have had a chance to spread. 

Use Candles & Incense 

Last but by no means least, if you need a super fast method to leave a sweet scent inside your home, then using candles and incense is a brilliant option. Candles and incense need nothing more than a match, and they can offer hours of fragrance that fills a room in a matter of minutes. It’s a good idea to search for some natural candles and incense that don’t contain chemical perfumes and other potentially risky ingredients, as recent studies are showing that they may cause migraines and breathing problems among other things. Candles and incense come in so many different scents, so you can choose a pumpkin spice candle for halloween, or get some mulled wine incense for Christmas!

Maintaining a delicious refreshing scent inside your home has never been such a simple task when you can take the time to utilize some of the brilliant tips and ideas that have been carefully described in this informative guide. Start by cleaning your carpet thoroughly, and be sure to open a couple of windows in the morning to get some fresh air. Don’t forget about candles and incense for a quick boost!
