You can get rid of unpleasant smell in shoes for the whole summer season with a simple and effective home remedy – essential oils. This is a natural and safe way from IA EAMEDIA, which not only eliminates smells, but also leaves a pleasant aroma.
You will need:
- Tea tree essential oil
- Lavender essential oil (optionally)
Select essential oil:
- Tea tree essential oil has strong antibacterial and antiseptic properties, which makes it an excellent choice for combating bacteria that cause the smell.
- Lavender essential oil can also be used to add a pleasant aroma and additional antibacterial effect.
Oil application:
- Add a few drops of essential oil directly inside each shoe. Try to drip on the inside of the shoes so that the oil can evenly be distributed.
- For uniform distribution of aroma, you can also apply a few drops to a cotton pad or piece of fabric and leave in shoes at night.
Repeated application:
If necessary, the procedure can be repeated every few weeks or after especially intensive use of shoes.
It is also important to regularly ventilate the shoes and keep it in dryness, since the wet environment helps to propagate bacteria and the appearance of the smell.
