10 tips to get rid of foot odor

Foot odor is really annoying. Here are some tips for getting rid of foot odor:

1. Putting tea leaves in your shoes can eliminate foot odor.

2. Tear the grapefruit peel into small pieces and put them into your shoes.

3. When washing your feet, add 10 to 15 ml of rice vinegar to the water, mix well, and soak your feet for about 15 minutes, once a day for three to four days, and the foot odor will disappear.

4. Put a small packet of quicklime (a desiccant commonly found in food) into your shoes.

5. Grind 15 grams of Pueraria root into fine powder, add 15 grams of white wine, and then add appropriate amount of water, boil it and wash your feet with it. Do this once a day for a week to remove foot odor caused by foot sweat.

6. Before going to bed every night, dip a cotton ball or cloth in a little alcohol and apply it evenly to the inside of the rubber and sneakers you just took off. Wait until they are dry before wearing them the next morning. After two weeks of doing this, your shoes will no longer smell.

7. Crush a few mothballs into powder, sprinkle it inside clean shoes, and then put an insole on them. This way, you will not have smelly feet when wearing them. Mothballs should not come into direct contact with the feet, and the mothballs inside only need to be replaced every other week. Camphor balls have a good antibacterial effect and can kill a large number of bacteria that multiply due to moisture, so there will be no odor.

8. For newly bought rubber shoes or sneakers, spray enough white wine evenly on the sponge bottom (until the sponge can no longer shrink). After it dries, there will be no odor when you wear it (if it is old rubber shoes or sneakers, wash them and treat them in the same way).

9. Wax gourd peel: Wax gourd peel has the effects of relieving heat, strengthening the spleen, and promoting dampness. It can be used to treat symptoms such as edema, abdominal distension, and difficulty urinating caused by kidney disease, lung disease, and heart disease. Washing your feet with a decoction of winter melon peel can cure both athlete's foot and foot odor, killing two birds with one stone.

10. Socks are also easy to smell. Pour a little white vinegar into the water for washing socks, soak for a while, and then wash with clean water. This will not only remove the odor but also have a sterilization effect.
