It's not about being able to smell the essential oils that you have added to the baking soda, its more about the baking soda absorbing what smells might be in the area so you don't feel the need to cover them up in the first place with an air freshener.

Great ideas.:) I am excited to try putting a large number/bigger containers in our car + gently washingand filter vacuuming car to attempt to get rid of new car toxins. We can't really avoid new car toxins with used cars as we get leasing through Husband's work;(. But, yesterday's drive and headaches and worry for the smaller people in our lives have me wanting to do whatever green things I can so to help things along. Any other ideas? We would be so grateful.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09905638491261148315noreply@blogger.com
