Tips to remove the smell of a new bed

Beds are closely related to our lives, and having a new bed at home is a very happy thing. We all know that new furniture has a strong smell when it is just bought, which has a lot to do with the production process. If the new bed has an odor, it will definitely be uncomfortable to smell when lying on the bed. We can try some small methods to remove the odor. Here are some tips to get rid of that new bed smell.

1. Ventilation method

Through the circulation of indoor air, the content of harmful substances in the indoor air can be reduced, thereby reducing the harm of such substances to the human body. It is suitable for low-concentration pollution (pollutant content less than 1 times), and requires doors and windows to be opened for a long time. It is not recommended to use it frequently in winter.

2. Adsorption method (activated carbon)

Activated carbon is internationally recognized as an expert in drug absorption. Activated carbon masks and gas masks all use activated carbon. This product utilizes the physical effect of activated carbon to deodorize and remove toxins. It does not contain any chemical additives and has no effect on the human body. This method can be selected for medium and low pollution.

Activated carbon has adsorption function for substances such as benzene, toluene, xylene, ethanol, ether, kerosene, gasoline, styrene, and vinyl chloride.

Note: This is a passive adsorption product and needs to be replaced regularly.

3. Plant elimination method (Chlorophytum, Aloe, etc.)

It is also applicable to low-concentration pollution: in general, when indoor environmental pollution is mild or moderate and the pollution value is less than 1 times the national standard, the use of plant purification can achieve relatively good results. Choose and place plants according to the different functions and size of the room. Generally speaking, it is more appropriate to place two pots of plants 1.5 meters high in a room of about 10 square meters.

Chlorophytum, aloe vera, and tiger tail plant can absorb a large amount of indoor formaldehyde and other pollutants, eliminating and preventing indoor air pollution;

The bactericides secreted by flowers such as jasmine, lilac, honeysuckle, and morning glory can kill certain bacteria in the air, inhibit the growth of tuberculosis, dysentery pathogens, and typhoid bacteria, and make indoor air clean and hygienic.

Most plants carry out photosynthesis during the day, absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen; and respire at night, absorbing oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide.

Some plants are the opposite, such as cactus, which releases carbon dioxide during the day and absorbs carbon dioxide and releases oxygen at night. Placing a cactus in the living room at night can replenish oxygen and help you sleep.

4. Salt water

You can put two basins of salt water in the room and open the furniture doors. This can not only evaporate the appropriate amount of moisture to protect the wall and ceiling paint surface, but also absorb and eliminate residual odors. If the paint smell comes from wooden furniture, you can wipe it several times with tea water and the paint smell will be eliminated faster.

5. Overnight tea

Dry the overnight tea leaves and put them inside the closet to remove the odor of formaldehyde. Or soak 300 grams of black tea in two basins of water, put it into the room, and open the windows for ventilation. Within 48 hours, the indoor formaldehyde content will drop by more than 90%, and the irritating smell will be basically eliminated.

6. Vinegar

Fill a basin with cold water, then add appropriate amount of vinegar, place it in a ventilated room and open the furniture door. This can not only evaporate the water in an appropriate amount to protect the wall and ceiling paint surface, but also absorb and eliminate residual odor;

7. Pineapple

If your financial situation allows, you can buy some pineapples and place a few in each room, and more in larger rooms. Because pineapple is a crude fiber fruit, it can not only absorb the smell of paint but also emit the fresh fragrance of pineapple and speed up the removal of odor, thus achieving the best of two worlds.
