Remove Odours From a Refrigerator and a Microwave

Refrigerator

Refrigerator odours are a common problem, with an easy solution. Remember that prevention is the key - clean and defrost your refrigerator every few months to keep those odours from coming back.
Remove all items from the refrigerator. Take out any removable parts of the refrigerator and clean them separately.
Mix together 2 tbsp. baking soda with a quart of warm water. Wipe down the inside surfaces of the refrigerator with this solution.
Try a solution of 1 c. vinegar and 1 gallon of water, if the odour remains. Make sure to rinse and dry all surfaces before trying this solution.
Mix 1/2 c. chlorine bleach with 1 gallon of water and apply to all surfaces, if the odour persists. Once again, rinse and dry all surfaces before applying this solution.
Leave the door open and allow the refrigerator to air out.

Microwave

Place a thick slice of lemon on a paper towel and microwave it on high for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Let it stand overnight or until the liquid has cooled.
Pour 1/2 c. bottled lemon juice into a microwave-safe bowl or a 2-c. glass measuring cup (if you don't have a fresh lemon) and follow the same directions. You can also dilute the lemon juice with water and add several whole cloves.
Wipe the microwave's insides with a paper towel soaked in a water-and-lemon-juice solution. Clean the top, bottom, sides, window, door, door seals and seams. Wipe dry.
