I was using the microwave and burned a meal so badly that the house was filled with smoke. I opened windows -


Question:put fans on - cleared the house of the smell. I cleaned the micro several times - but it still smells badly. Does anyone have any suggestions to get rid of the burn smell in the microwave?

Answers:
Try a solution of bleach and dish soap. The bleach should kill the smell and clean it well too. I use a spray bottle to apply the solution, leave it sit of cpl minutes before wiping. If there is crusty food particles heat the microwave for 30 seconds to warm it up. Good luck!


Put a large, microwave safe dish in the micro. Fill it with a 50/50 mix of water and white vinegar. Let it run for 4-5 minutes, but be sure not to let all of the water boil away. Then wash it again. Careful! It will still be hot.

If that doesn't solve it for you, sit a box of baking soda or activated charcoal in it for a few days with the door closed.
Microwave some lemon in a bowl of water. That's what the cleaning lady said on t.v. but I haven't done it.

Good luck.
