Pankaj29. Put Lemons in Your Garbage Disposal
Products Needed: Lemon(s)
What it Does: Sanitizes and removes odors from garbage disposals
Cost: $1-$2 per lemon*
Garbage disposals aren’t exactly the cleanest locations in the house. These disposals can accumulate bacteria and, as every cleanliness fan (a term that sounds nicer than “clean freak”) knows, bacteria leads to odor.
When disposals get stinky, the smell overpowers the entire kitchen and, if you’re unlucky, other rooms in your house. To prevent this, chop up lemons and put them down the garbage disposal. Lemon juice has long been used to sanitize pretty much any surface, and the garbage disposal won’t just be cleaner; it will also smell better, too. It’s a cheap hack, as lemons cost only $1-$2 at most grocery stores.
