Eliminate Kitchen Odors for Good: Tips & Tricks for a Fresher Home

The kitchen is a hotspot for some of the worst and most persistent household odors. From daily cooking to spoiled food and mystery spills, bad smells can build up fast—sometimes even creeping into the rest of your home. While basic habits like regular cleaning and opening windows help, they aren’t enough to completely eliminate strong odors.

Here’s a breakdown of the best methods to keep your kitchen smelling fresh and odor-free!

Smelly Kitchen? Try These Proven Fixes!

When scrubbing down your kitchen isn’t enough to banish lingering odors from cooking, garbage, or drains, try these powerful odor-fighting solutions:

1. Citrus Power: Natural & Effective 🍋

Lemons and oranges are more than just a fresh scent—they contain natural acids that cut through grease and eliminate stale drain odors. Toss citrus peels in your garbage disposal or boil them in water to infuse your kitchen with a clean, zesty aroma.

2. Ditch the Stinky Sponge 🧽

Sponges are bacteria breeding grounds, especially when left wet in the sink. Prevent odors by:

Squeezing out excess moisture after each use.
Microwaving damp sponges for 1 minute to kill bacteria.
Running them through the dishwasher regularly.
Replacing them often!

3. DIY Air Freshener Spray 💨

Commercial air fresheners can be pricey and full of chemicals. Make your own with:

¾ cup water
2 tbsp vodka or rubbing alcohol
10-20 drops essential oil (like lemon or lavender)

Spray it around the kitchen after cooking for a quick refresh! Just remember—this only masks smells, not eliminates them.

4. Clean Your Garbage Can 🚮

Trash cans are one of the biggest culprits for bad kitchen odors. Combat smells by:

Washing your can with soap and water regularly.
Spraying a deodorizer each time you change the bag.
Switching to a metal trash can, which absorbs fewer odors than plastic.
Using Bio-Bombs Odor Control Granule Sachets! These pouches are designed to absorb and neutralize odors inside trash cans, fridges, and other problem areas. Simply place a sachet in the bottom of your bin or inside your fridge, and let it do the work!

5. Neutralize Cooking Odors with Vinegar 🥘

Vinegar is a powerhouse when it comes to cutting through strong cooking smells. To prevent lingering odors from fried foods or fish:

Boil a pot of water with 1 tbsp vinegar per cup of water while cleaning up.
Let it simmer uncovered to absorb odors in the air.

6. Simmer a Stovetop Potpourri 🌿

If you want your home to smell amazing, create a DIY simmer pot with ingredients like:

Citrus rinds
Mint leaves
Rosemary
Cinnamon sticks
Essential oils

Just keep the heat on low and add water as needed. While this won’t eliminate odors, it helps create a pleasant aroma.

7. Baking Soda: The Fridge Savior 🧂

Keeping an open box of baking soda in your fridge is a classic trick for a reason—it works! But for next-level freshness, place a Bio-Bombs Odor Control Granule Sachet inside your fridge to absorb and neutralize odors more effectively than baking soda alone. Replace it every 3 months for best results.

8. Use Your Exhaust Fan! 🌬️

Your range hood isn’t just for show! Turn it on before you start cooking and leave it running for a few minutes afterward to help remove grease, smoke, and lingering food odors. If you don’t have one, consider installing one.

9. Keep Your Drain Fresh 🚰

A stinky sink drain can make your whole kitchen smell bad. If you don’t have a garbage disposal, clean your drain with this simple method:

Mix ½ cup salt, ½ cup baking soda, and ⅛ cup cream of tartar.
Pour down the drain, followed by 6-8 cups of boiling water.
Let sit for a few minutes, then flush with cold water.
For a deeper clean and long-lasting freshness, use Bio-Bomb Minis!Dissolve one in a spray bottle and apply directly to drains, trash cans, and problem areas for a science-backed deodorizer and cleaner.
