Everyone can become involved in your embarrassment when you make an awful odor in the toilet. It could be your flatmates, your in-laws, your colleagues at work or the person in the queue after you at that restaurant… If the smell is really bad it may be a good idea to rethink you diet as you may have an intolerance to a certain food product. However in the meantime her are a few tips that can help you get rid of horrendous toilet odors.
1/ Bicarbonate of soda
The industrial deodorisers never smell nice. It almost smells as bad as your what you’ve left behind in the toilet bowl. The best thing to do is to make your own air freshener. Take a little glass pot and fill it with bicarbonate of soda so it is half full. Pour around 12 drops of essential oil into the bicarbonate of soda (This could be lavender or another that you like). All you need to do is place your home made smell absorber and relax. When you can no longer smell anything add another few drops of essential oil.
2/ An essential oil spray
You might the sort of person that takes each day as if comes. However if you know that you are prone to leaving an unpleasant spay in the bathroom perhaps you should prepare for it. You can spray an essential oil spray directly onto the water in the bowl before sitting down. This acts as a sort of “odor trap” somehow. To make your magic spray, pour a spoon of 70 ° alcohol into a small 10 cl spray bottle. Then add the essential oils of your choice. Fill the rest of the bottle with water. Shake and then take the bottle with you wherever you go. Ideal!
3/ Matches
This is a perfect tip if you have been invited round to say the in-laws and your friends house. You’ve run out of spray so you can resort to a more natural technique. The trick is to light the match and drop it in the toilet before flushing. Try it, it’s great. Then wash your hands and eat your dessert.
