Here is advice and input: * Putting orange and lemon peels down the garbage disposal makes the drain, sink, and entire kitchen smell fresh and clean. No one likes a smelly drain, and recycling these peels as air freshener can make your entire kitchen smell citrus fresh. Older citrus fruits that may be going partially bad, can still be cut up and put into the garbage disposal. If you don't have a disposal, orange and lemon juice with warm running water can keep your drains smelling fresh.. * If your garbage disposal is stong enough, its a very good idea to put orange or lemon peels down it to make it smell good. * Putting orange peels down a disposal is a GREAT idea. It rids the disposal of the disgusting smell. I wish I would have tried it sooner!

* Alternatively, pour a half cup of baking soda into the drain, and then pour some white vinegar on top of it. This will foam, cleaning the area and making it smell fresh.

Why waste the orange peels? Keep them and dry them out. If you have a fireplace and are going to have a fire one night throw some dried orange peels in. It makes your home smell nice! Also, you can use the dried orange peels and put them in netting and hang a little in closets, drawers, or in your bathroom.

How do you deodorize a garbage disposal?

To deodorize a garbage disposal you can either put some baking soda in the drain and let it sit for a while or my favorite is to run lemon peels through the disposal after you do the dishes every night. You can use orange peels, too. Just make sure the pieces are small enough to run through without clogging it.
