Naturally Fresh Trash Cans—No Chemicals or Aerosols

A simple idea to knock down the stench from garbage cans.

We have all caught a whiff of the rotting scent of household waste after we changed the garbage bag.  

Instead of using harsh chemical aerosol sprays, drop a handful of cloves loosely in the bottom of the can, before putting in a new bag.

Another good option is dried eucalyptimint leaves. These are often found as decorative accents in flower arrangements.
