Keep on reading to learn ways on how to use baking soda to clean and deodorize your fridge.
How to Use Baking Soda to Deodorize Your Fridge
I have tried two different methods of using baking soda to deodorize my fridge. Both work great. Give them a try.
Open a Box of Baking Soda Method
What You’ll Need:
A box of Baking Soda
Steps:
1. Open a fresh box of baking soda.
2. Place it inside your fridge. I suggest putting it way back to avoid other things accidentally hitting and spilling it.

3. That’s it! It will help keep your fridge odorless for up to 3 months.
Bonus tip: Do not use the 3-month-old baking soda for cooking.
Shallow Container Method
What you’ll need:
A shallow container (I use a microwaveable plastic container, but any other container will do)
Baking soda
Steps:
1. Take a shallow container and sprinkle enough baking soda in it to cover the bottom.

2. Place it inside the crisper. It will help minimize the smell of onions and garlic.

3. Replace the baking soda every 3 months.
How to Use Baking Soda to Clean Your Refrigerator
Cleaning with baking soda and water helps in removing the stains and smell of your fridge. Here’s a simple method you can try out.
What you’ll need:
5 tablespoons baking soda
2 cups of water
Cloth or soft sponge
Steps:
1. First, take out all of the items in your fridge.

2. Mix 5 tablespoons of baking soda with 2 cups of water.

3. Dip a cloth or soft sponge in the baking soda solution.
4. Use it to scrub the inside of your fridge. Focus on the stubborn stains.

5. Rinse with a cloth soaked in water.
6. Dry the inside of your fridge well.
Bonus tip: Make sure you don’t use too much baking soda. It can scratch the glass and smooth surfaces of your fridge.
