Unique ways to get the musty smell out of the basement?


Question:Looking for unique tricks to get rid of musty smells from an old concrete basement, I know about a dehumidifier and washing the walls with bleach, but I am looking for some different tricks. Things I can put down there, or do to make it go away.

Answers:
Dry your coffee grounds and tea bags. When they're dry, place them there in open containers. Blend them with the granules that you get in beef jerky & other foods to keep things dry and fresh. Don't let the kids or pets eat that though.


A good fan blowing in fresh air will do a lot to help.
You need air circulation...Try a fan and if possible a window fan on exhaust...
