Removing Fish Smell From Fridge

RE: Removing Fish Smell From Fridge By Marvelous Moth (Guest Post) I see another friendly helper has suggested this, but it really works. Try wiping your fridge out with vanilla and then leaving a container of bi-carb soda in for about a week. Hope this helps!

(51) Contact There's still something in there causing the smell to linger--perhaps under a false plate @ the bottom of the 'fridge? Years ago I had the same problem with an upright freezer whose breaker had flipped off while we were gone for 2 week vacation--in one of the hottest summers in Oklahoma no less! Like you, I had tried everything & my father-in law suggested a plate or something at the bottom of the freezer where rotten juice had probably leaked. The freezer was in the garage & I started prying on things & sure enough, there was a cover at the bottom of the freezer. It popped off pretty easy. I got the Dawn dish soap & the broom & scrubbed it really well then rinsed it all with a high power spray hose. My DH put the freezer outside the garage then & aimed the open door toward the sun. We left it that way for a few days & when I plugged it back in & it started to freeze, the smell was gone!

I took about half a cup of new coffee grounds and put them in a pie tin and placed them in the refrigerator with the door closed (after thoroughly cleaning up the mess) and left it for a few days, NO SMELL.

Posted on 01/04/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Fish Smell From Fridge By Cyinda (1317) Profile Contact When we had a house fire, the Pro's brought in a large "Ozone Machine"... & within 2 days the whole house smelled fresh & new again. You can buy or rent smaller ones, for more information look in your yellow pages under "Fire & Water damage" & ask these guys about where you can rent a small ozone machine. These machines will remove ANY bad smells... BUT FIRST TRY THIS: try putting several bowls of white vinegar in various places all around your fridge... (you can also use the vinegar to wash down the walls of your fridge) Then the following day, put in a tray of high quality brand new kitty litter.... This will absorb the rest of the odor if there's any left after you've used the vinegar. You can also use "OUT!" ... it sold at Walmart for only $3.99 & it's made with good bacteria & enzymes to "eat" pet stains & odors.... It works wonders removing smells, plus it leaves a nice Vanilla scent.

I would suggest vinegar and let the door stay open for a day, but that charcoal idea sounds right. Sure hope you have success with one of these ideas. Cay from FL P.S. Since fresh fish has no smell, better freeze the next one right away if you're not planning to cook it the same night you get it.

I just bought a 5# bag, punched holes in it with the ice pick (unopened) and put in my freezer when it had spoiled meat in it for a week before I found the power had gone out on it. After a couple of days the freezer smelled fresh enough to refill it. I have passed this info along to several people who all reported back to me that it had worked when nothing else had. Hope this helps.

I have never tried it, so can't say for sure it it works. Worth a try any how. Good Luck Posted on 01/04/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Fish Smell From Fridge By Suzetta. (Guest Post) I've heard that placing a pie tin of used coffee grounds in the frig and leaving it a few days will remove any smells. I haven't tried it myself, but a good friend used it in her RV frig and it worked.

We purchased a used camping trailer and the husband only used the refrigerator to keep the fish he caught in it. Needless to say, it didn't smell good. I placed about 1 dozen in the refrigerator and after about a week the odor was gone for good.

Posted on 01/03/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing Fish Smell From Fridge By lorac (Guest Post) Very simple Just put a bowl of charcoal in the fridge, In a couple days NO SMELLS at all just regular charcoal that you would grill with! lorac Posted on 01/03/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse
