Carpets can trap odors, dust, and allergens over time, making your home feel less fresh. But did you know there’s a simple and affordable way to refresh your carpets using something you probably already have in your kitchen? Baking soda!

Why Use Baking Soda?

Baking soda is a natural deodorizer that helps absorb unwanted smells from carpets, leaving them fresh and clean. It’s non-toxic, safe for pets and kids, and works wonders in eliminating odors from spills, pet accidents, and everyday use.

How to Use Baking Soda on Your Carpets

  1. Start with a Clean Surface – Vacuum your carpet to remove loose dirt and debris.
  2. Sprinkle Baking Soda Evenly – Lightly dust your carpet with a generous amount of baking soda. Pay extra attention to areas with lingering odors.
  3. Let It Sit – Allow the baking soda to sit for at least 15–30 minutes (or overnight for strong odors). This gives it time to absorb smells.
  4. Vacuum Thoroughly – Once the baking soda has done its job, vacuum the carpet to remove all the powder and enjoy a fresher-smelling home!

Bonus Tips for an Extra Fresh Carpet

Add Essential Oils – Mix a few drops of your favorite essential oil (like lavender or lemon) with the baking soda before sprinkling it.
Use Regularly – Make this part of your cleaning routine to keep carpets fresh all year round.
Tackle Tough Odors – For stubborn smells, repeat the process or let the baking soda sit longer before vacuuming.

Keeping your home clean doesn’t have to be complicated. A simple step like this can make a big difference in maintaining a fresh and inviting space!
