Do you have any white vinegar? Sareitha Sedai Send a noteboard - 08/09/2010 06:12:34 PM
Dear collective knowledge of RAFO:

What's the best method of removing the smell of feet from a bedroom?

We had guests for two nights. They left yesterday. I have stripped the bed of sheets and matress protector but it still smells of feet. The door's been open since they left and we've opened the window.

We've got a potential flatmate coming tomorrow to check out the room. I'd very much like the smell to be gone by then but I don't know how to get it done! Any ideas?

Thankfully, the person coming tomorrow is a man, so I suspect he won't be as sensitive to the smell as I am. ;)


You can mist specific objects with it or set it out in bowls in the room. Might help. (The vinegar smell dissipates quickly). Or you could set a few open boxes of baking soda around the place?

If you are from Betelgeuse, please have one of your Earth friends read what I've written before you respond. Or try concentrating harder.

No. Darn. Only malt and wine. That's a nice oversight. - 08/09/2010 06:16:35 PM 543 Views

I think air fresheners are cons. *NM* - 09/09/2010 05:10:31 PM 260 Views
