Before every departure, I have a small habit that only takes a few minutes. I simply place a piece of paper 📝 and a glass 🍷 over the drain.
This quick gesture makes all the difference when I return ✨. It’s a brilliant tip my grandmother taught me 👵, and I highly recommend adopting it.
You’ll be surprised by its effectiveness 😮. All the details are in the article in the first comment 👇👇👇.
Before every business trip, I book an apartment in advance.
Last time, I found a fairly clean apartment.
As the apartment had been unoccupied for a month, an unpleasant smell had settled in.
It was due to the dried traps, which generally prevent bad smells from the pipes from entering the apartment.
Because of the heat and lack of ventilation, the water had evaporated, allowing the odors to spread.
Fortunately, a little water was enough to restore the water barrier.
Since that incident, I use a trick before every departure from my home to avoid having such a problem again.
I place a piece of paper and a glass over the drain.
This slows down the evaporation of the water in the trap and helps maintain the odor protection.
This simple gesture takes just a few minutes and helps avoid inconveniences.
