2. Add Essential Oils
Choose an essential oil that matches the mood you want to set—calming lavender for bedrooms, invigorating citrus for kitchens, or soothing eucalyptus for bathrooms. Add 10–15 drops and mix gently.

3. Place It in the Problem Area
Set the jar or bowl in the damp area—closets, cabinets, bathrooms, or near a window. If you’re using a jar, you can cover the top with breathable fabric or paper and secure it with a rubber band. This helps prevent spills while still letting the scent circulate.

4. Refresh Every Few Weeks
Stir the mix every week or two to keep it active, and replace the baking soda and essential oils every month for best results.


Why It Works

Baking soda naturally draws moisture from the air and neutralizes odors, while essential oils provide a fresh, clean scent. Together, they create a natural, chemical-free way to keep your home feeling dry and smelling lovely.


Bonus Tips for a Fresher Home:

  • Ventilation is key: Open windows when possible and use exhaust fans in bathrooms and kitchens.
  • Houseplants help: Certain plants like peace lilies and English ivy can reduce humidity levels and purify the air.
  • Use charcoal: Activated charcoal is another powerful moisture absorber and deodorizer—place it in small containers around your home.
