help - ventilation - my room
Ok, so i've been told by a few people my room smells bad, i do take care of my personal hygiene and i never leave food lying around, nor do i do anything in my room that'll stink it up
my sis' room is right beside mine,and her room smells fine, only different thing we do is, she opens her windows all the time
i have decided to take tonight and "refresh" my room's air, i wish to make the process faster, so i am going to use a fan
here is the question that could potentially be very lame
Which way to I face the fan, air blowing OUT the window, or air blowing FROM the window
sorry if i have wasted a good 2 min of your life

Depending on the wind. If its blowing into your house, and your fan is blowing out, you are probably wasting energy. I would aim for out.

Probably wise to put the fan facing towards the open window. So the fan could push some of the odor towards the window and out. You might have diabetes. If its a sweet smell, then it's signs of diabetes. If that's not it, use baking soda, and put it in your room. That should take all the smell out.

Did you leave any dirty laundry around?
I suppose you can use air fresheners or febreeze but that is a temporary solution. Opening the windows often will help, get some fresh air in but dont do it on smog days. I am in a similar situation as you and I have tried numerous solutions trying to fix the problem. I found out the problem were some cardboard boxes and some old projects. I have since removed them but the smell is still there. The end result was not expected. I got a deep hole in my wallet spending all that dough on air fresheners
I have learn to live with the smell in my room. its a part of my life now

Guys tend to just use soap, girls tend to use more fruity or floral washes & shampoo's, thats why your room just smells like sleep sweat & drool & lack of air keeps it sealed in like a nasty fart in a can. lol
Also make sure you throw your "kleenex" out everyday, don't let it sit in the trash can in your room that stuff stinks after a while
Or you can just go with a fresh coat of paint on your walls & shampoo your carpet, or pinesol wood floors & add a little extra scented fabric softner to your bedding laundry, & you get a fresh start.

Besides how many thongs do you own? they are quite small, so your pile can't be that big
I guess thats why you only need to open the window a crack?

You have no idea how far the nearest Wal Mart is in my neighbourhoodWalmart sells 2 packs for $6 lol buy in bulk and save.
I have to go all the way to Scarborough.
Oh yea Honest Eds have those Axe colognes spray for 2.99 so you can use that. I also believe that washing your linen often can cut down on the smell.A squirt of cologne on your blankets & opening the window a crack & leaving it open all day should do the trick too. or winners sells linen spray, which is just a bottle of scented spray that gets into your sheets to keep them fresh.
Then there are those carpet steam cleaners at grocery stores that you can rent for like $30 dollars if I remembered correctly for a weekend to clean your capets. You might have to buy the capet cleaning solution.
I hope you don't cook while you are in your birthday suit..But when I'm at home...Last edited by kilarney; Apr 15th, 2006 at 09:26 AM.
