How does one get a musty mildew smell out of closets?


Question:

Answers:
Clean the walls and shelves with a mixture of Vinegar and lemon juice, wait 30 minutes and rinse with damp cloth.


Oust air disinfectant, fabreeze, baking soda, clean it..many ways.
Place some bi-carb of soda into a small container with no lid, place this inside the closet. The bi-carb will absorb the odour. You may need to change the bi-carb when it becomes damp. This works best if the bi-carb is kept dry.
They sell a product that is made to suck the humidity out of closets. It is in a small tub and you just open it up and put it on the floor. It absorbs the dampness and smells. I have seen it at Savon drugs and know a lady who uses it in her house boat.
Damp Rid is a moisture absorber that comes in tubs. Available online, at Home Depot, etc. Be sure to keep the doors open. You can also plug in a dehumidifier in the room.
