Why Closets Need Freshening
Smells on clothes could develop and worsen as time goes on. Some smells are a result of mold, as mold grows in warm, damp places and thrives on organic matter. The insides of your damp sneakers are ideal for mold, for example. In some cases, smells in the closet are simply a matter of lingering body odor. For instance, maybe you wore a T-shirt to work out in, and rather than wash it immediately you shoved it into the hamper or tossed it onto the floor of your closet. Either way, the smell can start to permeate other fabrics, making the odor spread. Luckily, there are household staples you can use to deodorize your closet, including baking soda.
