I found an insanely simple way to get rid of odors from my dishwasher by doing this simple trick.
It was a Friday night and the hubby and I were enjoying a few snow crab clusters along with my signature lemon-butter garlic dip.
I always use fresh lemon for this recipe and after squeezing the juice out I was left with what I thought was a completely used up lemon.
As I was preparing my dishes for the dishwasher, on a whim I decided to place the entire lemon half in the top compartment of my dishwasher.
I set my dishes for their normal washing cycle and enjoyed the rest of the evening with my hubby.
What I found in the morning blew me away!
In the morning, I opened my dishwasher and to my amazement there wasn’t a single smell! Nada! Nothing! Zilch!
My dishes were also sparkling clean! I honestly could not believe my eyes or my nose!
After seeing the “lemon in the dishwasher” trick floating around on the internet, I finally tried it for myself and it actually works! I can now confirm this as a tried and tested Pinterest hack!
So, if you find yourself dealing with a musty smelling dishwasher, all you need is a freshly squeezed lemon half to kill odors and have your machine smelling like new again.
Give it a try and tell me how it works!
Update: It’s been well over a week now and my dishwasher still smells great! I am convinced!
