    smoke

    Considering what many people here do for a living I thought I'd ask... has anyone ever have to deal with minor smoke damage in a home?
    I'm just trying to get rid of the smell.
    I'm thinking, air fresheners + pouring baking soda on all my stuff for a day, but I'd accept any remedies with open arms.
    Right now all I've got is incense, but I don't like the idea of burning something else to get rid of the burning smell.

    Surprisingly, it had nothing to do with me, fire eating, or my addiction to burning frying pans. My newest roommate had a pretty crazy microwave misunderstanding. Even the best microwavable dish isn't going to make it when you set the machine for 25 minutes and leave the house. ....ugh. I've met my match.
    Well, maybe I WILL just keep telling myself that.

    Ok put on your winter jacket, toque and gloves and open up all the windows and doors. Best way is just to air it out. Going to be a little cold mind ya, but the toque should keep your ears from freezing.

        After all my frying pans, I'd be a hypocrite to not have mercy.
        ...This just happened to be the worse one yet. It's been four days. My mother said I smell like an old bording house.
        I'm off to find some baking soda Boxing Day sales.
        Well, maybe I WILL just keep telling myself that.

          Fabreeze all the furniture, that will help a lot - really saturate it, and then the drying process is what gets rid of the smell

          Good luck

              What the pros use

              Rent an ozone generator. Should be able to get one from a place that rents floor scrubbers, carpet scrubbers and the like.
