Get rid of nasty odors

To rid your RV of musty or bad smells after storage or after being closed up for a few weeks, place charcoal in disposable containers (charcoal is messy, and don't use the self-lighting kind that is impregnated with lighter fluid) throughout your rig.

Fabric softener sheets, like you use in a clothes dryer, placed in drawers and cabinets will also give off a fresh,clean smell.

If you know where the smell is coming from, use vinegar--which is safer than many commercial products--to neutralize the odor. Vinegar is also effective on pet accidents on carpets.

Stir a teaspoon of white vinegar into a pint of water (more vinegar for tougher jobs) and apply with a spray bottle. Blot the cleaned area and allow to air dry. Vinegar is effective as a general cleaner also.
