Answer 1

I have always heard that burning a eucalyptus candle takes the smell out.

Answer 2

Shampoo the rugs, constantly change and wash sheets and blankets.

keep your floors and windows clean and have a deoderizer in every room.

maybe get one of those ionic breezes that cleans the air. they work pretty good.

Maybe you could have him smoke outside

Answer 3

umm stop smoking

idk

Answer 4

soak a towel in white vinegar and go room to room twirling it in the air. Also before you go to bed set a bowl of white vinegar out. The vinegar absorbs the smell.

Answer 5

stop smoking!

Answer 6

My mom and step dad used to smoke in the house until they wanted to sell it. My mother and I found these carbon rock bags at Bed Bath and Beyond or Linen N Things. That seemed to help a lot.

But what really got the smell out was washing the walls and then painting every room in the house. washing all the curtains and having the carpet professonally cleaned. I know it sounds like a lot of work, so you will probably go with the easier posts people are putting on here. Just do one thing for me first though, if he has been smoking in the house for years, go to a picture that has been hanging on the wall for almost as many years and take it down. Just look at that wall, if that isn't gross, I don't know what is.

My husband and I both smoke but we don't smoke in our house because we know it stinks. I hope you find something that works for you.

Answer 10

If you open the windows and let it air out that might help but if you light a match it will also take the smell away!

Answer 11

Cigarette smoke is so hard to get out. It stays in everything. Wash everything like pillows, comforters, and other things that are washable. Shampoo everything you can't fit in the washer, and paint. Regular detergent and cleaning supplies will take care of it. Also just let it air out for a bit. Open the windows.
