How can i get rid of the smell from a book??

Question

Bought a book recently from amazon...btw it was "my sister jodie" lol...it stinks of fish!!

Got any ideas of banishin the smell???

Answer 1

Put in  in a tuberware container with one of those Fridge It odor absorbers.  - little purple cube - not the imitations. Totally unscented so it actually eliminates odor rather than covering up with some nasty fragrance and totally safe to use.

I've used these for spilled something in my purse, cabinets,worst smells in fridge and ice in freezer. Also, took care of spoiled fish in car which was really bad. Also have two cats and use these on litter box - they are FANTASTIC No spills or chemicals to worry about. You can buy these in kitchen gadget stores or just go direct which is what I do - contact them at [e-mail] and ask for order form. You get it right away.

Definitely the way to go. try it.

Good luck

Answer 2

Try putting dryer sheets between some of the pages and letting it sit for a few days

Answer 3

Well, I would put it in a bag with a Fabric Softener sheet. I had a friend who was a smoker and would put those sheets under the seats of her car to pull the smell of smoke out of it. So, I think it would work...but, I wouldn't put it right on the book maybe put a piece of paper inbetween them just in case. The close up the bag and in a day or two hopefully it will small good.

Alternatively you could send it back to amazon letting them know and maybe get a different copy of the same book.

Good luck.

Answer 6

Leave it near an open window, and let the air get to it, any odor would just disperse.

Or use OUST! this eliminates a smell in seconds.
