If you refrigerator is smelling a bit funky, it is definitely time to give it a full top-to-bottom clean. Here are some tips for keeping your fridge funk-free.

• To start, clean out all uneaten leftovers and expired food.

• An easy and effective refrigerator cleaning solution is a 50/50 solution of warm water and vinegar/baking soda. You can also add a few drops of dish soap. This solution not only cleans the gunk, but also has odor-eliminating properties.

• Make sure to pull out the drip tray that is located beneath the refrigerator – it most likely will need a deep cleaning.

• Once your fridge is sparkling again, put a box (or small bowl) of baking soda with a few drops of lemon essential oil inside the fridge to keep it smelling fresh.
