    I used 1/2 cup of water with half of the orange peels for 2 minutes, then wait for 5 minutes, 3 different times. Worked like a charm! Thank you! So much better!

    Thank you so much, this worked so well, we had burnt crab cakes in the microwave, so the entire apartment smelled very bad., followed your instructions with the oranges & water, then the baking soda, then cleaned the microwave (again). Previously tried vinegar, also lemon juice, they didn’t work.

  • @cfcreative1
    @cfcreative1 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Not a lot of people know this but in my Panasonic microwave there are
    vent holes right above where the food cooks. If your food explodes it
    will shoot up into this vent and even when you clean the inside of the
    oven you will have lots of food in that vent. I took the cover off and
    wow what a mess food was almost spilling all over the inside top of the
    oven. Then when you turn the microwave on the fan blows that air out
    into your room. I am actually putting a defelector over the holes so if
    any food explodes it doesn't go in those holes but air can still
    circulate. Be very careful if you go into a microwave oven there is high
    voltage. Never plug it in and work on it and discharge the main
    capacitor before troubleshooting.

    • @OdorRemovalDude
      @OdorRemovalDude  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think the egg may have injected particles into the air vents so eventually they will dry out, however in the meantime the heat from the steam will be reactivating the pong. I would give it a real blast with the method, wipe it out and leave it out in the sun for a few hours to dry and dry out the residues.

    Please help! My roommate is pissed that I burned some microwave fries and it caused it to smell really bad. He said if I can’t get the smell out that I have to buy a new microwave smh. Even though the microwave isn’t broken and I still heat stuff up in it no problem. Yeah he is very petty and money hungry like that. I have tried everything I read online to no avail. I tried water and vinegar, scented soap and water, left an entire box of powerful scented baking soda inside for 2 nights in a row, used all purpose cleaning vinegar, scrubbed the microwave down with powerful scented fabuloso and NOTHING WORKS!! It’s not as bad as it was but the smell is still noticeable. What the hell else can I do?
