Creativity In Smell Can Reward Handsomely!

Home remedies of using baking soda or vinegar for getting rid of domestic odors are good to learn in grade school. In the real world we need more sophisticated methods to do away with sickening smells. So if I were to ask you, what’s your brightest idea for preventing domestic smell, would you have one for me? I wouldn’t reward you tho, however if you presented it to the Swirl Smell Fighters Innovation Contest, you could win handsome prizes!
