RE: Refrigerator Odors
I saw some others recommend a product called Fridge it. I too love this product. Works fantastic because of the activated carbon filter. I've been using for years in fridge and other places like under sinks and trash. Even have friends that use it on diaper pail and other things. I usually just buy my supply of these on line at www.innofresh.com the company is called innofresh products.

What do you suggest when the freezer is 1/2 full of rotten frozen together solid meat?

RE: Refrigerator Odors
There is a product called FRIDGE IT odor absorber made just for this. It is a little purple cube with an activated carbon filter inside. I've tried lots of other products including baking soda and other products, but nothing works as well as this little purple cube. You can find it in kitchen gadget sections of stores like walmart and linens and things. Definitely worth trying.

Peeled Raw Potato Removes Smell
If you have an odor in your fridge, put a raw, peeled potato inside to absorb the bad smell. Once it does, just toss out the potato.

Have you tried just opening the doors and letting it run for awhile. This will bring fresh air into it to be circulated. I had a terrible smell in my fridge from broccoli left in it for too long. I finally took everything out and wiped everything down, but I let the fridge run while I was cleaning it. I think the fresh air circulating in it was the key. I didn't even have to clean out the freezer.

Use a solution of warm water and borax, it will freshen it up and make it super sparkly!

I use fresh coffee grounds for absorbing odors from many things from clothing stored which had gotten damp & mildew to a box trailer that was damp and stuff in it had mildewed, it was a very strong odor. I made cloth bags and put fresh coffee grounds and hung them but you could put them in an open container, maybe 1/2 cup to start.

I would suggest putting a charcoal briquet in a plastice margerine tub (empty of the margerine, of course) with holes in the cover. Do not use the charcoal that has the starter fluid on them. Just plain charcoal briquet. Charcoal briquets also get the musty smell from basements,etc. Just be sure children cannot get at them.

Try cat litter. We once had a freezer full of meat that went bad when the power went out during a hurricane. I tried vinegar, Lysol, Clorox but nothing worked except the cat litter. I bought the cheapest kind and put several saucers full on the different shelves. After a few days of keeping the freezer closed the only odor that was left was the cat litter. We wiped down the whole interior, then left the door open for another day or so. It took several days, but the odor of rotten meat (Uck!) was gone. We used the freezer for about ten more years. Good Luck!!

Try putting a few charcoal briquets in the refrigerater, just put a few in a small bowl and set in there.

Try a bag of charcoal briquets. They absorb most odors. Just put the briquets in loose. Hope this helps.

RE: Refrigerator Odors
be sure the drip pan is clean, then stuff the fridge with crumpled newspapers. the paper should absorb most of the offending odor. My bil is an appliance guy and this is his fav remedy for fridge odors.
Depending on how persistent the odor is, you may have to replace the paper several times over a few days.
