Our pellet stove backed up and burnt up into the hopper. It filled the entire basement and upstairs of nasty smoke, causing a terrible structure fire-like smell. How do I get that smell out of my house?

Baking soda has several uses. Removing unwanted smells from the house as well as putting out grease fires on the stove. Nellie

I was baking potatoes on the button for potatoes. Two were done and I shut the door and continued to cook the other two potatoes. We were in the other room & when I walked into the kitchen which was just in time, there was a fire in the microwave. The potatoes were cinders. Now the house smells bad. We removed the microwave and put it in the garage.It does not work. We also have been airing the house out even tho it is very cold. Now I sprayed the house with Fabreeze. I will scrub the walls and cupboards but wondered what else to do. Thanks in advance.

My situation is the same as Victoria, but I mistakenly put on my overhead Microwave vent fan and all the smoke went into the microwave and now the whole house smells like smoke. I tried a product called Orange Magic today which is a spray. I sprayed everything and even put the spray in my a/c filter to put the smell of oranges in my vents. So far so good. so try this product.

My husband fell asleep while cooking mac & cheese. I was sleeping on the 2nd floor of our house and woke up b/c the entire house was filled with smoke. There is no physical damage but everything smells horrible. I’m not sure that we should even be breathing this in it’s so bad. Please HELP ME! Do I turn it into our homeowners insurance or is there a home remedy to fix this?

I had forgot the stove in my house on with eggs and water in a pot. We were gone for 3 hours. We came bck home and the house was smoking. We aired the house out, but it still smells really bad. How do I get rid of the smell. I also noticed that my bedroom smells really bad, especially the mattress. I read that you can clean mattresses but my mattress is a memory foam one. Will I have to replace my mattress?

For a mattress cover with baking soda and rub it in. Wait a few hours and use hose attachment on vacuum to vacuum up.
