If you mean a simple 2-ingredient trick to keep your house smelling fresh, try this:
🍋 2-Ingredient Simmer Pot
Ingredients
- 1 lemon
- 2–3 cups water
How to make it
- Slice the lemon into thin rounds.
- Add the lemon slices and water to a small saucepan.
- Bring it to a gentle boil.
- Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for 30–60 minutes.
- Add more water if the level gets low—never let the pan boil dry.
- Let the citrusy steam spread through the kitchen and nearby rooms.
For a stronger, longer-lasting effect: after simmering, leave the lemon water to cool in an open bowl for a while. Repeat as needed.
⚠️ This masks odors rather than permanently removing their source. For lasting freshness, clean the source of smells (trash, drains, upholstery, etc.) as well.
