Can the refrigerator be cleaned? Yes, you can, it should even be routine at least once a month, that's also if you want the refrigerator to always be fresh and not musty. Even though the refrigerator is closed and logically it won't get dust, let alone the inside, but after all something that has never been taken care of will end up being unhealthy.

I've kept food and kept forgetting to put it in the refrigerator, maybe from prehistoric times (lebay..), the point is that when I was about to clean it up, the food was covered with mold and some kind of hairy... just horrible

I'm not really that diligent about cleaning the fridge, unless it smells awful inside or there's food spilled in it and it makes the fridge look disgusting. But when I read and read, it's really necessary to clean the refrigerator, what more if for example it hasn't been cleaned for years, don't let it go, because after all, the refrigerator is usually where we store anything that goes into our stomach. can cause disease.

1. Take out the contents of the refrigerator for easy cleaning

tips on how the refrigerator doesn't smell

(first, remove the contents of the refrigerator)

First of all, when you want to clean the refrigerator, of course you have to remove all the contents in it, be it food, drinks, vegetables, fruit, leftover tarts, or whatever. The goal, of course, is to make it easy to clean. When removing the "entrails" of the refrigerator, I usually sort the food that has an expiration date, usually we unknowingly store leftover snacks, opened instant spices, and so on in the refrigerator.

Because the contents of the refrigerator are getting more and more, eventually it is piling up, and old food is covered by new food, I often find expired food in the refrigerator just slipped in the corner, even yesterday, I got cooking spices that have hardened from years 2015, this seems to have been missed while cleaning the previous batch of refrigerators. 😂

2. Unplug the refrigerator

After all the contents are removed, then unplug the plug that connects the electricity to the refrigerator. This is done to melt all ice cubes and flowers which are usually not clean if you only press the button to defrost regularly (especially refrigerators that don't automatically defrost), accumulated ice also affects the food storage space.

Another goal, to guard if there is a sudden short circuit when we wipe or clean every part of the refrigerator. If electricity is not connected to the refrigerator, usually the ice from the freezer will melt, as well as the temperature on the shelf so that condensation can drip onto the floor, so prepare a cloth to absorb any water that may come out of the refrigerator.

3. Disassemble the shelf and take it out

clean the shelves so the refrigerator doesn't smell

(stage three, removing the refrigerator shelf)

The next step after all the contents of the refrigerator are out and the electricity has gone out is to disassemble the refrigerator shelves, carefully move the shelves for the refrigerator made of glass like mine, because they are prone to breakage, and difficult to find replacements. If all the shelves are out, the display will be like in the picture, a 5 year old child can also fit in the refrigerator.. hehe.

These shelves will later be washed with soap and running water as when washing dishes or other kitchen furniture. While the walls of the refrigerator, just wipe with a little soapy water, then clean the remaining soap with a damp cloth, and dry with a clean dry cloth or a special tissue for the stove.

4. Put the rack according to the seat back into the refrigerator

(step four, put back into the refrigerator)

After the refrigerator is clean and the shelves have been washed and dried, then the fresh shelves are put back into the refrigerator according to their seats. If I usually start by inserting a shelf for eggs, followed by all the shelves on the door, and finally the shelves on the inside of the refrigerator.

Why does my refrigerator stink One way to do this using household items is by spreading a thin layer of baking soda on a large cookie sheet and leaving it in the fridge overnight.
