If I were to think about giving up an appliance, I wouldn’t have an answer, because for me they are all extremely indispensable. Among these, the vacuum cleaner is the one that makes it easier for me!
Let’s think about it for a moment: with the pace we have now, we certainly cannot wash the floor of the house every day, and passing a broom is effective but the time invested triples.
If you’re in a hurry, all it takes is a quick vacuum cleaner and the problem is solved! But I’ll tell you more: do you know that while you vacuum you can make your house smell pleasant thanks to natural remedies ? If you’ve never heard of it, this might be a good reason to start, don’t you think?
What remedies to use in the vacuum cleaner
How does this little trick work specifically?
It will be enough to use a series of natural remedies in the vacuum cleaner . When we turn it on , the fragrance of that remedy or spice will flood our rooms. It is better to make a distinction between two types of remedies , based on availability and the time we have at home.
The ones to put in the bag
Some natural remedies , due to their size, should be placed directly in the bag. Do this operation when you are replacing it, I guarantee that in this way you will also avoid the classic bad smells inside the vacuum cleaner . The remedies I use most are:
cinnamon sticks : they cannot be missing from the house, even if you want to perfume the kitchen after preparing lunch;
pot pourri : if you particularly love it and have a handful of it at home, you can easily put it in the vacuum cleaner;
rosemary sprigs or lavender sprigs : for a fresh or relaxing smell;
bay leaves , the anti-odor par excellence! Here is a video with some of its most important uses, such as the vacuum cleaner.

If you don’t want to open the bag compartment
It may happen that you don’t have time but you don’t want to give up this little trick that I’m sharing with you today! Know that there are some “quick” natural remedies , which you can simply spread on the ground , and then vacuum them up with your vacuum cleaner.
Cinnamon powder is an excellent alternative to sticks , but you will have the same scenting effect. If you just need to deodorize the vacuum cleaner, you can also sprinkle a handful of baking soda and vacuum it up. Baking soda is known as an odor absorber, so it will help you here.
Finally, if you have some spices or ground aromatic herbs , like mint , you can get a good, fresh scent at (almost) zero cost!
Because I do it every day
Perfuming the house by vacuuming is a trick that I learned by accident and that I try to do every day. I want to explain why you should do it too!
It’s really fast
It will be easier done than said! It really only takes a few seconds: choose the remedy you want, spread it on the floor, vacuum it up and continue cleaning as you usually would . Plus it’s also cheap, you don’t need to buy air fresheners.
