National Clean Out Your Refrigerator Day and Internet Sale on Activated Charcoal Odor Eliminators

National Clean Out Your Refrigerator Day is November 15  – SAVE on all Activated Charcoal Odor Absorbers

On the lighter side…..Yes, there really is such a day.  Perhaps the best way to get motivated to do something is to declare a national holiday of sorts.  Well,  now there is no excuse – it’s time to clean out the refrigerator and finally throw out the unidentified food objects “UFO’s” in the back of the  refrigerator or hidden in one of the produce bins.   After all, it’s National Clean Out Your Refrigerator Day on Nov 15th…for real!   So, clean out  your  refrigerator and  eliminate that dreadful refrigerator and freezer odor that you put up with every time you open the fridge.

How This National Holiday Got Started?

It’s difficult to say exactly how this day got started, but some references suggest that it started back around 1995, with a special Whirlpool promotion.   Initially,  Clean Out Your Refrigerator Day seems to have started as the 3rd Wednesday in November, however as general awareness and momentum gained around this idea, November 15th seems to have stuck.    Even Emiril (the famous Chef) wrote several years ago,  ”I just learned that November 15 is National Clean Out Your Refrigerator Day”.   So, indeed November 15th has become the official date – perfect timing for right before the holidays.    It makes sense that everyone should start the holidays with a clean and fresh smelling refrigerator.   Whatever the reason, I’m guessing that your refrigerator could use a good cleaning.   If you haven’t kept up with your fridge, go ahead and put on that Hazmat suit and shelf by shelf, sticky and smelly drawers, go for it.

Inspired?
We would love to hear from you.  Share your fridge clean-out and odor elimination stories and photos and upload it to “comments” on this posting.   What do we see as the worst smelling refrigerators?  Well, dorm rooms and break rooms are often the worst, so we expect again, to see some of those.  Some past photos are pretty crazy. Here’s a fun clip from NBC affiliate KAMR with a segment called  “Does It Work” showing a particularly bad smelling refrigerator and how they solved the problem fast and easy with FRIDGE IT activated charcoal odor absorbers.

It’s really a good time to tackle this chore.  You’ll need the extra room in your fridge anyway for the holidays and the last thing you want to worry about is the odor from the refrigerator or freezer, including bad tasting ice.   While you’re at it, make sure you finish the job by placing a couple of FRIDGE IT odor absorbers in the fridge to maintain a fresh and clean smelling refrigerator.  It’s much better than baking soda. And, for another food saving tip -don’t forget to check the temperature in your refrigerator.

Eliminate Dead Rodent Odor Behind Walls and Vents – Safely and Chemical Free with Activated Charcoal

  How To Safely and Effectively Eliminate Dead Rodent Odor

 It’s that time of the year.   The faint scratching that you heard in the walls have gone quiet and instead have been replaced with the rather pungent odor of decomposing rodents – mice or rats.   

We know from experience.  You can smell it the minute you walk into a room or open a closet where the smell is coming from.  The odor from a dead, decomposing mouse or other small rodent is enough to drive you out of the house.   Before you take a hammer to the wall or search through the vents, there is an easier solution to reducing and even eliminating the strong odor from a dead mouse behind the wall or in a vent.   Dead mice and rats hidden behind walls, cabinets, vents and closets are among our top odor inquiries.   The good news is that we have helped many readers just like you.

There is a way to SAFELY eliminate the odor with natures best odor absorbing material – Activated Charcoal.   No chemicals or irritating fragrances that just mask the odor.  There are a number of products that claim to reduce the odor, but the best answer is to actually absorb the odor with carbon or charcoal.  Getting a spray bottle of odor reducer is not going to help when you can’t get to the dead rodent.   Placing activated charcoal odor eliminators in the area where the smell is the worst is your best choice.    Our popular FRIDGE IT Cube activated charcoal odor absorber is extremely effective in tackling the strong odor from a dead mouse.

Our customers often ask – “But, I thought that FRIDGE IT was for refrigerator, freezers and trash odors?”   That is certainly some of the uses for FRIDGE IT.  However, the special ventilated activated charcoal fliter that we use for FRIDGE IT is amazing in effectively absorbing and neutralizing a broad range of odors and has the absorption capacity to handle even the toughest of odors including dead mouse odor.   FRIDGE IT contains a powerful micro carbon filter that absorbs and neutralizes odors as they pass though millions of micro-pockets and pores in the activated charcoal.  The amazing property of activated charcoal is the enormous microscopic surface area that odors (gases) actually “adsorb” to, adhering to the surface of the activated charcoal.  Just placing a few of these FRIDGE IT filters in the area that you feel the dead mouse is likely located will help tremendously in absorbing the smell that is lingering in the air.   For best results, place these odor absorbers near the baseboards and in the general area near the wall.  Depending upon the size of ther room and difficulty of the odor, we typically recommend 3-6 odor absorbing filters placed nearby. 

If you have problems with mice in your home, we recommend first trying to trap the mice in the open with a mouse trap or other device so that it doesn’t just end up eating the poison bate and then die behind the wall.  However, despite best efforts to trap them, the reality is they often end of simply dead behind a wall and the smell is pretty darn bad.  So, again, before taking a hammer to the wall, discover the amazing power of activated charcoal for absorbing odors.   Not just any charcoal, but the ventilated activated charcoal of FRIDGE IT.

Full Moon, Vampires and Garlic

 ON  THE  LIGHTER  SIDE……..

A full moon is out again and there are lots of stories, myths and legends surrounding a full moon including stories of Vampires.  Vampires are very popular again in the movies and talked about more than ever.  So, here’s what you need to know.  If you believe that garlic keeps away vampires, you’ll have a cabinet or refrigerator full of these odoriferous cloves.   Right?  Perhaps this works and you won’t have Vampires.  But now, what do you do about the garlic odor and how did our ancestors keep the smell in control?  Charcoal, perhaps?   

MORE ON THE LIGHTER SIDE….  History Behind Garlic and Vampires.

To a lot of folks out there, a full moon brings to mind lots of stories, myths and legends that surround a full moon including Vampires.    For years, cultures around the world considered garlic, not only as a food, but also garlic is said to hold medicinal properties among other uses.  As far as vampires, according to some traditions, various methods including garlic can be used to protect against vampires.   This originated back to Eastern Europe where vampires were believed to be afraid of garlic.   Perhaps this had something to do with the idea that garlic can be used to get rid of many insects and mosquito bites (and maybe vampire bites too).

 

More about Charcoal  -
So, if you are inclined to follow in the footsteps of legend, make sure you keep your refrigerator and cabinets odor free with activated charcoal.   FRIDGE IT activated charcoal odor absorbers are the perfect odor eliminator for maximum odor eliminating results.

Whether there is a full moon or not, if you love garlic, make sure you keep FRIDGE IT activated carbon odor absorbers in your home too.   The activated carbon absorbs, neutralizes and eliminates even the toughest odors.   FRIDGE IT doesn’t cover up odors with fragrances but eliminates the odors for good with natural activated charcoal in a long lasting, convenient filter that you can just hang or place near any odor.

5.0 out of 5 stars It really works!,
One of my tenants recently vacated a unit in my apartment building. I know for a fact that the electricity was shut off in his unit for an unknown period of time, and the smell coming from his (thankfully now empty) fridge was atrocious. I was afraid I would have to replace the fridge. First I scrubbed with bleach, and that wasn’t good enough, so I put “home remedies” in the fridge for a few weeks. These odor – removing home remedies included coffee grounds, some cotton balls soaked in vanilla extract, and baking soda. I had piles of these sitting open on plates. After a week and a half or so, the fridge smelled more tolerable (from the coffee & vanilla) but you could tell it was just masking the odor, since it smelled like coffee vanilla with an underlying nasty smell. Finally I threw all those items out of the fridge, turned the fridge on, and let it run for a few days with just baking soda loose on plates and 2 fridge its in the fridge with 2 in the freezer. After a day or two the fridge was smelling better, and the smell was GONE by the end of the week! I highly recommend this product!

 5.0 out of 5 stars Fridge It is the best!!
I put this in my freezer and it started working right away! My ice doesn’t smell or taste oniony any more. The only problem I am having is that if it is knocked into it falls off the shelf very easily because of the small hook.  

 5.0 out of 5 stars Love this product!,
Works much better than baking soda! and lasts much longer! The only beef I have is that the hanger is kind of lame and I knock it off pretty easily when rummaging through the fridge/freezer. I definitely will buy it again!

 5.0 out of 5 stars FRIDGE-IT Refrigerator Deodorizer,
I brought 4 FRIDGE-IT odor absorber and they did a great job I had a head of cabbage that went bad and the smell and taste went through my side x side and I clean with very thing to get rid of the smell and taste in the ice maker. the only thing that did the job was FRIDGE-IT NATURAL ACTIVATED CHARCOAL ODOR ABSORBER!!

 5.0 out of 5 stars good product for removing odor
This item does a good job of removing odors in both the refrigerator and freezer.

 5.0 out of 5 stars Works Great!,
I couldn’t believe how quick this worked. 24 hours later the odor was gone.

 5.0 out of 5 stars Better than baking soda,|
I’ve purchased this product at a camping store and feel that the charcoal deodorizer is the only way to go. I’ll not buy baking soda for a refrigerator again

Guide To Cleaning Your Refrigerator and How To Eliminate Refrigerator and Freezer Odor For Good.

How to Eliminate Refrigerator and Freezer Odor For Good

 

Most people don’t know this but November 15 is actually a holiday – It’s National Clean Out Your Refrigerator Day. No kidding.   If you want to learn more about this holiday, click on this link to another post of mine that explains the history of this curious day  National Clean Out Your Refrigerator Day.   PLUS, look for great 20% savingsclick here.
Well in honor of this special day, I thought it would be appropriate to reprint a quick and easy guide to cleaning out your refrigerator plus tips on how to eliminate refrigerator and freezer odor for good.   I found the attached guide simple and easy to follow, reprinted with permission from LoriW – special thank you to LoriW.

Guide to How to Eliminate Refrigerator and Freezer Odor For Good.

Reprinted with permission from LoriW.
Everyone I know seems to have a problem with refrigerator and freezer odor. It’s a big problem that can cause major cross food contamination, faster food spoilage and bad tasting and smelling ice as well. With this short guide, you will eliminate refrigerator odor and freezer odor for good. Here is the important part – “safely” – without harmful chemicals and fragrances.

It’s not the cleaners but how you clean that is the key.
This will save you time and money in the long run and keep your refrigerator odor free for good. All you need is three things. It’s been my secret for years (along with dozens of friends).

Difficulty Level: Easy

Instructions

Things You’ll Need:

  • Liquid antibacterial dish soap
  • Paper towels
  • Activated carbon product

1

Typical Refrigerator over stocked.

Typical Refrigerator over stocked.

1. The first step is probably the hardest. Need to remove ALL your items from the refrigerator. This is not a necessary step for your freezer unless you had a defrost problem. If so, then, remove freezer items as well.
This process won’t take long, so no worry about food spoilage if you stay on task. Be sure to actually discard all items that should be thrown out at this point, especially if they already smell like something other than what it is. ie. cheese smelling like onion. For those products, it is too late. My personal goal is 10% – 20% of the items should be tossed because they are just expired.

2. Now, time for a little (really only little) elbow grease. Using paper towels and some water along with just a little antibacterial dish soap, start at the top of refrigerator (inside ceiling) and start working your way down making sure to wipe down the sides and each shelf along the way. After each section is completely cleaned, wipe with dry paper towel to get rid of any moisture.
If your refrigerator has racks instead of shelves, wipe the racks down or better yet, remove from refrigerator and wipe down over sink.
I find that the antibacterial soap is mild and works great. No need for harmful bleaches or other chemicals.
An area that many people forget about is around the door and bins AND inside the bins. These are really important since often liquid drips down into these and can really begin to smell after awhile. Just wipe with soap and water all around the rubber seals.
Check the door hinges as well. These often are a great hiding place for spilled things. You may need to use an old toothbrush to get into those places. Time to put everything back now. Don’t forget the 10% rule.

Now, the freezer. Unless you’ve had a problem with defrosting, I find that just concentrating on the ice bin now takes care of most problems. Time to empty out the old ice which may have taken on some of the “old” smell. With ice bin empty, just wipe down with plain water (no soap) and dry before placing back into freezer.

  1. 4

    Last step.
    Your refrigerator is clean. Now, to keep it smelling clean and as fresh as possible while protecting food smell cross contamination, the only product I recommend that works the absolute best is made with activated carbon. The brand that I’ve used for years and recommend to all my friends is a little purple cube called FRIDGE IT activated carbon odor absorber. They are so convenient to use and I believe actually saves me time and money since I’m not throwing out as much, refrigerator never smells and these odor absorbers last for a long time.
    I just place one on each shelf and one in each bin in the refrigerator. I also keep one in my freezer near ice bin.
    So, that’s it. No chemicals, no fragrances, no messy baking soda.
