Onions, peppers, fish, broccoli, and fried chicken taste great—but the leftover smells can be less than appetizing. Even if these foods are cooked perfectly, the odors they leave behind can linger well beyond the dishes being cleared and washed. Fortunately, you can use the same tips to get a burnt smell out of the house and remove stubborn food odors. In addition, make sure you’re keeping your fridge clear of odor-smelling foods for too long to keep the stench from invading other foods. 

It might be possible to use a carpet cleaner on your couch, but it’s not recommended. Some carpet cleaners contain chemicals that are too harsh or abrasive for the soft fabric on your couch. Plus, couches have upholstery codes that dictate what you can and can’t use safely for cleaning purposes, and carpet cleaner generally isn’t included in those codes. If you do decide to use a carpet cleaner, test it on a section of fabric that isn’t visible in case you damage it.

To remove dog or cat urine from a microfiber couch, use a safe solution for your furniture based on its cleaning code. First, blot up as much as possible, then cover the area with baking soda for a few hours to remove the smell. For S cleaning codes, use a spray bottle to spritz the stained area with rubbing alcohol and gently scrub with a microfiber cloth until the urine is gone. Use the same process for W or S-W cleaning codes but with 1 cup of vinegar and 1 cup of rubbing alcohol. 

If you’re wondering how to maintain your mattress and keep it fresh, aim for a deep clean at least two times per year. However, if you have allergies, pets, or sweat heavily at night, you may want to clean it every three to four months. In between deep cleanings, vacuum the surface regularly and spot-clean stains as they appear. Using a mattress protector can also help minimize the buildup of allergens, dust mites, and bodily fluids, making your cleaning routine more effective and less frequent.
