Refrigerator is one of the most used household appliance. We need to keep it clean and free from bad smells and odours. Normally the walls of freezer may be filled with ice and it is quite difficult and time consuming to defrost it. To remove ice from walls easily rub some salt to the walls of the freezer. This will help to melt the ice quicker. 

Normally when we store fruits or vegetables there are some fruits which emanate strong odour. For example jack fruit or guava. They spread their odour to rest of the substances kept in refrigerator. To avoid bad odour we must place some baking soda in a small cup. Keep it open in your refrigerator. This will avoid any further spreading of smells. Also, always cover it well before placing inside your fridge. It can prevent mixing up of different smells.  You can use white vinegar also instead of baking soda. Put some white vinegar in to a cup and clean the refrigerator to avoid odour. You can put a few grain of oats also, in a cup to absorb all bad odours.

Very often, we forget to clean the tray which is located beneath the refrigerator. We often assume that water is odourless. But as days pass by, it gives a bad smell. Also, both water in tray and frozen ice can increase your electric bill. So clean them periodically. 

Remove the expired food from the refrigerator. Never keep a food item more than a week, particularly fish and meat inside the freezer. They can give bad smell and also, it’s not healthy to eat old food items including vegetables and meat. 

Take some dry coffee grounds in small cups and keep them in different racks in refrigerator. This may take some time to remove bad odor from refrigerator yet it’s a nice idea. Charcoal is a good absorbent. Take some Charcoal in to a cup and keep them in different racks as this absorbs the bad odors in the refrigerator.
