How can i get rid of the smell of smoke??


Question:my front room smells really badly of fags and that this morning and i need to get rid of it or cover it by tonight..any ideas?

Answers:
Set bowls of vinegar around the house. The vinegar will absorb the smoke odors. For immediate relief, soak a towel in vinegar and walk throughout the house, swinging the towel around (yes...it sounds funny but it REALLY works!)


give up smoking?
stop smoking duh
Remove all items that smell like smoke and spray Febreze air freshener.you could also burn some incense or light a bunch of scented candles..be careful though.
air freshner & open windows...hardly rocket science is it?
Scented candles.....but don't set house on fire or you'll have more smoke.
burn incense then open all the windows.
open doors and windows, use shake n vac leave for a while before you hoover, polish around. Then spray some air freshner around. Smoke outside next time! I do..
make a curry LMAO ....i think the smoking ban tomorrow is meant to mean you don't smoke cigarettes it does not mean you have to get rid of the smoke from today LAMO...you been a naughty secret smoker have you.tut tut
air freshener like orange based spray or vanilla extract
also put a disinfectant soaked tissue in the vacuum cleaner bag and go suck
If you don't want people to smoke in your front room because of the smell, don't let them, its your place I presume. But until you get the courage to do that, try lighted candles.
Theres no point in me saying stop smoking! So, open all windows for a while.If you can get to a shop that sells incense sticks use them. OR,
Is your front room near your kitchen? If so, get some vinegar and water in a pan. Bring to boil and simmer for about 20 mins. Do this with all the doors open of course! It will smell strong for a while, but will go.Vinegar has lots of wonderful uses.
HOPE THIS HELPS.
If you have a perculator you could keep coffee on the boil. It smells good and does as effective a job as any air freshener.

Leave the windows open . . .
If it's carpeted use some baking soda on the carpets.. Sprinkle and let it sit..Vacuum in a few hours... Open the doors and windows to air out the house... Get some febreeze and spray the furniture/curtains...
Febreeze is supposed to be just the thing for this problem
I am a smoker and to keep the house smelling like smoke, I get theses wooden type plants that actually absorb the odor. Thay come in several colors and need to be replaced once a month. You can get them at any art supply center. To start the process, open the front room up, windows and doors.
Put a`pot on the stove with water and vinegar. Let the water boil, then turn down the heat and leave to simmer . Just remember to top of the water every now and then. This will rid the smell of smoke all around the house
