What are some non-commercial, natural air fresheners one can use either to spray around or as powder ?

I tried clove powder mixed with baking soda, that is good, and are there other tips?What are some non-commercial, natural air fresheners one can use either to spray around or as powder ?
I microwave a big bowl of water with lemon juice, orange peel, cinnamon, vanilla and cloves in it. Bring it to a boil and then cook for 5 minutes or so. This leaves a really good smell in your house and it will regenerate when you use the microwave. Plus, the steam will make it easy to clean your mic.What are some non-commercial, natural air fresheners one can use either to spray around or as powder ?
I found a great natural product made with activated charcoal which has been terrific for me all around my house. Its called fridgeIT activated charcoal odor absorbers from a company called Innofresh. I started first buying it for my fridge where baking soda wasn't working. Since Fridge It , I haven't had any problems.


I read more about what I can use this for and now, you will find it all around my house. I really like it and love fragrance free part of it. No spraying and messy powders or chemical gels either.


Anyway, I'm a big fan. I usually just get it on line from them directly at www.innofresh.com
hi..i just mix fabric softener with water in a spray bottle and use that. also use dryer sheets (from the dollar store) under couch cushions and in toss pillows that have an opening or zipper in them and any other place that i can hide them and still have the nice smell.
use whole cloves, the powder loses its' natural oil and smell quickly. but in a burlap sack to place in between couch pillows.


I also use downy dryer sheets for the same.


also you can add cinnamon, ginger, etc.


no baking soda
I like to simmer a pan of water with apple peelings, cinn, cloves and allspice in it..bring to boil, turn to simmer and turn vent fan on
For a fresh scent (that helps to keep flies away as well) take one jar mint extract and add it to a large spray bottle of fresh water. Spray around like Febreeze.
Try baking some homemade cookies in the oven just before you have people come over. The minute they walk in the door they will notice!
Thanks for the tip.





Another: Set out a small amount of vinegar in a bowl or jar cap.
