@Benjamin Israel thanks for your reply. I got to the site through google and im in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

1. Spray with water 2. Sprinkle baking soda over all of the couch and rub in 3. Vacuum 4. Spray rubbing alcohol to disinfect 5. Spray with febreeze or a smell you like

[@hectorlee85]

YES!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH. I have a short attention span 😂

[@buffiewardell5891]

For your baking soda I bought a parmesan cheese shaker at the dollar tree and it holds a whole box of baking soda and works perfect.

[@nykkelly9459]

LOL Thats what I use!!!

[@Blizzy3225]

You can always use an old spice jar after sanitizing it if it smells like spices add water and bleach leave it sit a while but when you use it it'll be new and you can use all those extra spice jars after being sanitized for all kinds of stuff from spices to beads buttons etc have a party lol

[@debchambers8563]

I have one that I’ve saved. Great idea.

[@kendracrippen]

Genius!

[@MarySpain1958]

Yes AND the top to a P. Cheese container fits on a Mason Jar so you can switch tops .

[@Adnaloy1112]

I will be honest. I did NOT think this would work. To my surprise it worked PERFECTLY!!! Didn’t think anything would work on that odor. THANK YOU!!!!

[@AndreaJean]

Nice work!

[@44pap]

Purchased a sofa from FB and totally forgot to ask if it was from a non-smoking home and low and behold it smelled of smoke. I found your video and I'm pleased to say that sofa no longer smells of smoke!! I did remove the seat cushion covers and put them in the washer and added 1/2 cup of the baking soda along with the detergent. It worked beautifully...so Thank You! I would like to add that my sofa had a very strong smell of smoke so I saturated it pretty good with the baking soda and let it sit for 3 hours before I vacuumed it.

[@alysiadiederich6381]

This is very helpful thank you! I found a chair I want on Marketplace, great condition and fairly cheap but from a smoke home. Wanted to make sure I could get the smell out before buying 😆

[@fifteenthfret]

Congratulations on your new baby, and thank you for taking the time to educate us while you are 2 weeks away from your miracle. Mothers are amazing.

How it will dry

[@CKT222]

My dog kept sneaking on the couch at night and we have guests coming over and I’m so happy this got the smell out. I was even avoiding sitting on it. Thank you❤

[@Kaelioh7]

I used this after my kitty threw up tuna juice on a couch that does not have removable cushions. Worked beautifully!!

[@corneliawilliams1454]

Oh my Goodness! You resolved my issue. I was trying to find out how to salvage my mom's couch after several years. This is exactly what I needed to know. Thank you so much. Will be watching your videos from now on. Keep it going!❤

[@cyndiburns7932]

Great tips. I don't use anything with essential oils because they can be harmful to animals. I also have sensitivity to certain oils/scents. One way to give a fresh smell without odors is to spray with 3% hydrogen peroxide. I use this on our bed pillows as well and toss into the dryer each week. I spray our mattress with the hydrogen peroxide and always put on ceiling fans to dry.

[@haleighc1]

Thanks for the tip! My son and I are also very sensitive to oils/scents so I’m always looking for ways to freshen things up without them!

[@averie8177]

Love using hydrogen peroxide, just have to be careful with it....it does bleach certain things!

[@ursamajor6347]

We have a small dog and I 100% swear by peroxide, especially when it comes to cleaning up pet accidents. Is the only way to get rid of that smell without the harmful effects of bleach

[@lovelife9332]

Another freshener that helps remove smell is peppermint essential oil which can be mixed with lavender, etc. and mix that with water in a glass sprayer bottle. Peppermint is good for deterring bugs near windows and doors as well. Just thought I would share ❤

[@AndreaJean]

Great tip!

[@Trollestiatumblur]

If you have cats (like I do) Don't use the peppermint. It's poisonous to them.

[@nicolefrederick2237]

thank you

[@missmistyeyedd]

Oooh I will try this! I actually have that essential oil on hand

[@alyssacassity2558]

But then you have peppermint smell on your couch which is nauseating

[@amandazumut3906]

I tried this today with a big mattress that I got from my sister who's a big smoker, and it did WONDERS! I used the spray bottle with water and damped the mattress and then sprinkled baking soda all over it. Then I let it air out with the windows open, and a few hours later; 95% completely gone! I am definitely gonna have baking soda on hand from now on😄

[@AndreaJean]

❤️❤️❤️

[@nathanc6593]

thank you for the tutorial. I have a living room set we got for our basement. we used to let people go down there in the winter when we had a gathering and smoke so they wouldn't have to be cold outside. I used your method to get the smoke smell off and revive our couches and chairs. seems to work. I also used a bissel little green machine the day after using your method, and the combo made the smoke smell undetectable. thank you so much

[@carmenrobinson6560]

You are the best! This absolutely works!!! I almost gave up on my sofa. You're a God send!!

[@lisaclerie5949]

Exactly what I was looking for. I had heard baking soda, had heard alcohol. You gave it the 1, 2 punch! Doing this ASAP! Thank you!

[@AndreaJean]

❤️❤️❤️

[@IcedAmericanna]

Thank you!! I have six pets right now and this made my couch smell wonderful. I use a bissel deep clean 1x month and doing this two weeks after did so much.

[@liledfreemon4673]

Best place for baking soda is a large salt shaker... it allows for better coverage.. old glass or plastic ones are perfect... just add a couple pieces of unpopped popcorn or large grain rice to prevent soda from packing together as you shake it.. soda comes out finer and no where near as clumpy...

[@catherinewyly9942]

Love thd step of alcohol, didnt think about that. For a refreshener I use just a bit of Gain fabric softener with water in a squirt bottle and lightly spray. Leaves a hint of thag amazing fresh clean smell if Gain.

[@lblincoe2094]

Just an FYI fabric softener does build up on fibers and creates a coating. I know for instance, when washing cloth diapers, you absolutely cannot use fabric softener in the wash specifically for this reason; it coats the fibers and will hinder the absorption of the materials. And that's even with the softener being rinsed away in the rinse cycle after it's applied. If you're spraying it onto a couch where you're sitting and stuff, that coating can actually attract more dirt and make the fabric even dirtier than before you cleaned. Especially since it's not being rinsed away. I love the smell of fabric softener myself, but you might be better off spraying it in inconspicuous areas of your couch, like under the cushions or on the back of it, to keep dirt from recollecting on your freshly washed fabric. Just an idea 😊

[@christiansean2430]

Video was great part because of the information but majority because of your energy!

[@HaloHighlightz]

I know this will work for my couch without any issues because I have the same couch as yours 😂 it’s a hand-me-down for my first apartment so I’m not complaining and it’s comfy enough! Thanks ❤

I have a lift chair few years old I use a washable chuck pad & always cover it with a sheet. But I had 2 cats & my chair doesn’t look dirty but it’s real smelly. This will be my first time cleaning it. I do have some woollite foam cleaner with brush on it. Would like to eventually try your method with the baking soda. Really nervous about cleaning it by hand but your video & other dyi videos will help me out tremendously. Thanks for posting it

[@sofiahubbard4570]

Hello Ms. Andrea. This is my first time watching your channel. Thank you for sharing it with us. I do actually low on my finances, therefore; I will do exactly the way that you just showed us. Thank You!!

[@AndreaJean]

Welcome!!

[@anonymoussmith610]

i suspect there is a better and easier way, this is the first video ive watched and havent tested. that said classics never die, zero doubt this would work perfectly well

[@marilynbradley8487]

I got good results from your method. I paid a professional carpet cleaner $180 to clean my sofa and all I got was a clean smelly sofa. I was ready to throw it out which would have been very sad because I paid a lot for it. And to think, all I needed was some baking soda, a spritz of water and rubbing alcohol. Thank you for sharing. By the way, I let the baking soda set on the couch for a day and a half. It did the job. I'm about to share this on Facebook right now.

[@Alexisajenkins89]

I just did the same thing and I'm allergic to dogs. Went to sit on it and now I can't go back down there

[@dinahnegron9448]

Andrea, thanks so much. I will be trying this because my dog likes to get on my couches and they get dirty and smelly often.

[@deekey9562]

thanks for sharing my sister came me a sofa and she has dogs. i will try this thanks again

[@daves8510]

Thank you!! Got a secondhand office chair and want it cleaned up before use. Your ideas sound great.

[@leonahthelioness5479]

One thing you can do if you don't have a shaker is use a fine mesh sieve. The finer the mesh, the more evenly distributed it will be. If all you have is a coarse sieve, dampen the baking soda a little so it will be clumpy & not just fall right through.

[@JaniceLifestyleInfluencer]

This was super helpful thank you.. I’ll be trying it out tomorrow.. my dog has made these couches smell and I have to do something.. good luck with the baby

[@lindaculbertson9425]

Needed a couch for my garage, it was free on the curb but still in working condition, reclining and all. But man, the pet odor and dog hair and smell was wicked. Thanks for reminding me baking soda exists. Also, rubbing alcohol my wife also puts in a bottle with essential oils. I was beginning to be a bit discouraged at the thing but I think we can get it in nice shape so I don't feel gross sitting on it :P

[@egretlabcanada3274]

Have you ever tried Electrolyzed Water? So simple - just salt and water, but needs to be electrolyzed to change the structure to HOCl. It becomes a really good cleaner, with a neutral charge that cleans better than most household cleaners, kills all the germs and bacteria that cause odour, and reverts back to natural producs so is environmentally friendly! The Egret Blaster comes in it's own sprayer as well as creating the product!

[@COG4L]

saline you mean

[@WarrenBobinski]

No hypochlorous acid is not saline, when you electrolyze salt water, it becomes a very potent and effective cleaner

For the cushions on my sofa, I unzipped the covers, and put them in the washer with unscented laundry detergent, & baking soda. Much easier, & cleaner then sprinkling baking soda. Yes, baking soda is wonderful, I use it for cleaning, among other things. As for Febreze, it is dangerous for your health. Everything that you breath in is effecting the health of your unborn child.
