During the cold months, windows are kept closed to retain pleasant warmth inside, which is understandable. However, fresh air is crucial for a healthy living environment. The population of dust mites also increases in closed rooms. Nevertheless, a lack of ventilation leads to the accumulation of unpleasant odours.

Unpleasant odours at home? This one trick is a real hit on TikTok

Fortunately, there is an easy solution to the above-mentioned problems—use fabric softener to clean the radiator. This method is particularly helpful for allergy sufferers. This hack is gaining popularity on TikTok, where on the profile mylittlewiltshirecottage, it has garnered tens of thousands of views.

You only need a large bowl, warm water, and a bit of your favourite fabric softener to perform this trick. Start by removing the grille from the top of the radiator and cleaning it in the prepared solution. Be sure to thoroughly wipe the front and side parts of the radiator as well.

The final step is the most important: Place towels and an empty bowl under the heater, and from above, fill the radiator with the fragrant mixture. This simple procedure removes dust and other pollutants, leaving a pleasant smell in your home. It is very important to remember to perform these actions with a cold radiator!
