How can a man use aromatherapy at home?

Are you one of many men who live alone? Or even if you do not live alone, do you look for ecological ways to keep the home clean and pleasant? These ways of using aromatherapy at home for men will certainly make your life healthier and more pleasant whether you live alone or with others:

How can the food recycling container small nicely and not attract insects?
If you have a food recycling container in the kitchen, thoroughly wash and dry it.  Line it with two or three dry paper towels. Then line the container with the usual liner. Drip 25 drops of peppermint oil on a flat cosmetic cotton wool pad. Place the pad on 2 folded paper towels near the container. If you can, store the container in a dedicated cupboard. If you store the container in a cupboard, leave the container open. Leaving it open will dry the food content and also  prevent insects from going into it.  Change the cotton wool pad with peppermint oil every time you change the liner of the container.

The next time your nose bleeds,
soak a cotton wool bud or a piece of cotton wool in lemon juice [or neat essential oil of lemon if at hand] and insert it as far up the nostril as you can.  Keep it there for 3 minutes while reclining the head. When you remove it, the bleeding will have stopped.

Smelly shoes?
Drip a few drops of any essential oil on a piece of cotton wool and insert it into each shoe.  The oil will take the smell away and certainly make the shoes - and even their storage space - smell beautifully!

If the fridge is beginning to smell badly,
thoroughly wash it with your traditional cleaner in your usual way. Or vinegar if you want an ecological solution. Then prepare a final rinse of water containing 3 drops of either bergamot, grapefruit, lemon, or orange essential oil to leave a fresh clean scent.  Never add too much oil into the water - 3 drops to half a bucket of water are plenty.  Add a splash of washing-up liquid to help the essential oils properly disperse and wipe the surfaces.

Citruses are the best cleaning agents
This is why lemon is the most often used agent in commercial cleaning products. If you don't have any of the essential oils listed in this article, you can also clean any surface in your home with the juice of real lemon fruit. The effect will be just as pleasant and effective.

How can aromatherapy help men beautifully repel insects at home?
by using certain essential oils. The fifth paragraph of this article lists the right oils for the job.

And if the interior of the microwave smells terribly,
also drip 20 drops of peppermint oil on a flat cosmetic cotton wool pad and place the pad into the microwave. Of course take the pad out before heating meals!

But men don't usually have aromatherapy at home.
If you don't have any essential oils at home, you can buy them in pharmacies, health or drug stores, and of course online.
