Fish odor removal remedies

How to get rid of Fish odor cooked or raw out of your house? Fish odors comes in four different types of odors. The first is from fresh fish that you bought or have caught that you fillet and store in your refrigerator. The second type of fish odor is the odor from the cutting boards you used or fish juice dripping on counter tops. The third fish odor is when you cook the fish and your house smells like f"old fish" for days. The last is fish tank odor from an aquarium that smells and causes fish odor problems.

When you buy fresh fish and store in it your refrigerator, it can have a strong smell. The fresher the fish the smell will be less, the older the fish the more odor will develop. Fish juice is the major odor issue. Even with very fresh fish, it is the fillet juice that gets into the cracks in the cutting board. The older the fish, the more it will smell as it begins to decay.

The best way to control fish odor is by using an activated charcoal odor absorber. When you have fish in the refrigerator for more than 24 hours, be sure to double or triple up on the odor absorbers for the length of time the fish is in the refrigerator. When fish juice drips, the only option is to clean the refrigerator, in addition to the odor absorber. The odor will not go away overtime if the fish juice is not cleaned up.

When filleting fish, look at the cutting boards you are using. Take notice of the way you dispose of the trimmed fish parts, since this all relate to cleaning and odor control. Use a board to cut on with a material that can be washed on hot in your dish washer. Be sure to lay paper towels under the board to catch and contain the fish gut and juice. Once done cutting be sure to place all the fish trim and paper used to mop up in a sealed baggie. Get the sealed plastic bag into the garbage as soon as possible.

A high heat dish wash of the cutting board should take care of this issue. When you still smell fish odor, use a charcoal odor absorber in the storage area where the cutting boards are kept.

Cooked fish odor does stay around for a long time in your house and linger. The best way to get rid of this odor is to use an odor absorber to trap the fish smell that is now in the air. This is important to do since odor transfer can happen your cloths, furniture or carpets and will then be a long term issue.

The use of an naturally activated charcoal odor absorber will work well for any strong cooking odor like fish, or onions or garlic. This odor absorber advice also works well for general cooking odor issues like getting rid of onion odor, garlic smell or other strong cooking smells in your house.

When you have fish and an aquarium you also will have odor when the algae builds up. For that type of air born fish odor problem, use 2 to 3 odor absorbers outside of the fish tank to keep the odor contained by placing them close to the tank. If you stand next to you fish tank and you can still smell the odor then you need an odor absorber placed near by. Be sure not to place these odor absorber in the tank, there are fish tank odor absorbers for inside the tank that you can get at pet stores.
