The International Free Smoking day last 31st of May got me thinking. At www.amycleaning.co.uk we have received already comments from domestic cleaners concerned about how difficult it is to get rid of that strong smoke odour. No matter how much you clean there is always that smell of cigarette in the air…

Here are some quick tips on how to make smoke odour disapear:

–Vinegar: I know, the smell of vinegar is not great, but with some time and ventilation it will diminish, unlike the cigarette smell. You can use vinegar on non fabric surfaces.

–Baking Soda: Good to use of fabrics. Sprinkle on the area and leave for as long as you can. Then just vacuum!

Someone still smoking in your house? Put some coffee grounds on the ashtray and use it to extinguish the tip of the cigarettes. This will help absorb and neutralize odours.
