Here’s a great way to save money, and reduce the use of toxic products in your home. Using just baking soda and some essential oils, you can easily deodorize carpets, rugs, and even mattresses and furniture!

** Note that tea tree oil when ingested is toxic, so be careful around animals and young children. You can leave this ingredient out and still have fresh carpets, though.**

Pre-made deodorizers are full of chemicals you don’t really want to be breathing. This stuff is safe, effective and it smells amazing.

The tea tree oil has the added bonus of being antibacterial, too.

For pennies, your whole home can be fresh and clean.
