Housewares get an unpleasant smell over time, and carpets are no exception to this, and due to the fact that different feet are placed on it, it may sometimes smell like socks, but the method of removing the unpleasant smell from carpets helps to Decorate the beautifully patterned rugs with good and excellent smells. Carpets are items that are always used in the house, so their fragrance helps the house to be fragrant.
When we built this house 5 years ago, I decided to cover the floor with wood and laminate as much as possible. Because I have had allergies since childhood and therefore less carpet is better for me. Even though I decided to cover a few parts of the bedroom with carpet, still parts of the house are covered with carpets and rugs. These carpets can get dirty and smelly.

For this reason, I decided to use deodorants that would not lead to the recurrence of my allergies. Since artificial air fresheners are made of chemicals, I stopped using them.
I like my carpets to be clean and smell good, as a vacuum cleaner can pick up most of the dust so it is effective in this.
Here, I would like to introduce to you some air fresheners that are made from natural oils and extracts available at home and therefore are cheap. So this method is the secret of my house smelling good. Because I have found that smelly carpets can also make the house smelly.
What is a carpet deodorizer?
A carpet deodorizer is something that you spray or pour on the carpet to get rid of the bad smell. Homemade carpet deodorizers are not like the deodorizers available in the market. These deodorizers do not clean the carpet but only remove the bad smell trapped in it.

Some people call it carpet freshener, carpet deodorant or carpet freshener. In my opinion, the most popular type of carpet deodorizer is in powder form. Carpet powder is usually white so that it does not stain the carpet.
How is the bad smell trapped in the carpet?
But this bad smell can also be caused by cooking. I always have a reputation for burning toast, so we always fry fish outside. The bad smell created by the fireplace and the smell of burnt wood is also a problem in winter.
Carpets can trap odors over time: odors such as candle odors, animal urine, milk drips, and smelly garbage.

How to remove animal odor from carpet
Yes, I'm crazy, but I've realized that if I can train one dog, I can definitely train two. Although I know now it wasn't smart, I still love my four-legged girls. But at first, it was very difficult to keep the house clean and smelling good with my dogs.
Dogs usually always accidentally poop on the floor and don't know how to clean it. My girls also enjoy following them and taking them to their rooms. To get rid of dog odors, not their urine and feces, I spray white vinegar on the carpet first. Make sure you try this spray on an inconspicuous area of the carpet.

Steps to prepare vinegar spray
Half-fill a spray bottle with warm white vinegar
Dilute the vinegar by adding an equal amount of water
Lightly spray the vinegar on the carpet
Leave it for 5 to 10 minutes
Then follow the instructions below to deodorize the carpet. The deodorizer may react with the vinegar, but don't worry.
You have to try hard to get rid of the smell of animal urine because sometimes it attracts fleas. Fortunately, we do not have a flea problem. But according to Wikipedia's description of this father's diatomaceous earth, it is suitable for controlling fleas in animals. Add diatomaceous earth to your carpet freshener recipe to kill fleas.

What should you do to smell the carpet?
The primary ingredient in my carpet freshener is baking soda. Baking soda is an inexpensive substance that absorbs and removes carpet odors. Fortunately, I can vary my fragrance by adding other extracts as well. I know what you're thinking…
