    Hey everyone. I need help trying to figure out which kind of air freshener/deodorizer to use in the hotel I work at. I've used the Airwick metered aerosal spray cannisters and the heated oil plug ins. Just wondering if any other suggestion not involving a spray to use to change the scent of the place. Thanks for your guys help.

    We like the AirWick plug-ins. Island Paradise.

    baking soda is a deodorizer. If it has carpet sprinkle on it and vacuum and same goes for tile, just make a water/baking soda mix and scrub. Essential oils are much stronger than anything you can buy at the stores and can mix that in with the baking soda to give a scent.

    What does Carnival Cruise Lines use when their ships lose power at sea?

    Try a Lampe Berget.

    Tons of different aromas, and they actually cleanse the air, instead of just covering up the odors.

    Buy a Scentsy warmer (electric candles melting 1-2 cubes of scented wax). The air fresheners are usually toxic.

    If you're going to go this route, there are cheaper knock-offs at Walmart.

    I've found that the best defense against stinky air is good filtration. Don't skimp on the AC filters.

    Why not just get rid of the stench like a hygienic and healthy human being that we all should be, instead of masking it with "air freshener"?

    :rolleyes: I hate those Fabreeze commercials... "we put pizza boxes, stinky socks, sweaty towels, etc., in a van... in the heat... in Texas... then we put Fabreeze" oh yeah? Well why not clean the iSht, cochino?!?!? :mad:

    I do have everything cleaned, carpet shampooed etc, it's just cooking smells from the kitchenettes and smoke from smoking rooms. Makes the hallways smell
