water bottle - Maureen

[Guest guest]

I'm so glad it works. LOL it is funny that this subject just came up, because

we had a beverage spoil in a closed drink bottle too and just found the

container today, so I've got it soaking with this mixture right now. Smile.

Hi Judy,

 

The sealed container filled with water and baking soda worked like a

charm on my oniony plastic lid. Thank you so much!!

 

Hugs,

Maureen

>> I hope it works well for you Maureen. It is a pain when you get those odors

in something you need to used for all kinds of foods, but can't because of

something like picke or onion odors. I found out about the crumpled newspaper

from a lady doing a Tupperware party.

Close and shake the bottle to mix well. Then leave closed over night and rinse

in the morning.

Cover and mix well. Leave overnight. I'm not sure if this will work on plastic,

but it will work on a load of laudry that sours in a washing machine, when

forgotten about. I just add about one cup of vinegar to a load of laundry and

run it thru a quick wash cycle and the odor is completely gone. Baking soda also

works in this case. I wash out my microwave oven with a weak solution of vinegar

and water and it removes any odors too. So it is worth a try.
