Masks and refrigerators should be items that every household now has. Refrigerators can extend the shelf life of food, and masks can block viruses. Both are very useful things.

Generally, we don't put masks in the refrigerator, but in fact, putting a mask in the refrigerator can save a lot of money a year.

Does anyone know what to do to save money? Let's find out together today.

1. Remove odorGenerally, there are various kinds of food in the refrigerator, many of which have a strong smell, and the air in the refrigerator is not circulated well.

Over time, the refrigerator is easily contaminated with various odors. Coupled with the lack of air circulation, the odor in the refrigerator cannot be dissipated. Various odors are mixed together, making the refrigerator smell particularly unpleasant.

At this time, we can take a mask, cut off one end of the mask, and pull out the metal wire.

Then add a little tea leaves into the mask, then tie the mask tightly with wire and put it in the refrigerator, which can effectively remove the odor in the refrigerator.

The smell of tea is relatively refreshing, and it can also absorb odors. The mask has good breathability, which allows the tea to emit the smell, and at the same time, it can lock the absorbed moisture to a certain extent.

After a while, the odor and moisture in the refrigerator will be absorbed into the tea leaves, which can prevent excessive moisture and odor in the refrigerator.

When the tea leaves lose their aroma, we can throw away the mask and tea leaves directly, replace them with a new one and put it in the refrigerator.

This way you can avoid odors in your refrigerator, and you don't need to spend money on refrigerator freshener, which is very convenient.

2. Avoid freezingOnce the moisture in the freezer increases, the freezer compartment of the refrigerator will freeze.

Freezing will not only cause the freezer area to become smaller, but will also cause the refrigerator's freezing effect to become worse and increase power consumption. Therefore, it is best to remove the ice cubes in the freezer regularly.

And take precautions in daily life to avoid freezing in the refrigerator. So how can you prevent the freezer from freezing?

We can cut the mask, stuff some paper towels inside the mask, and then tie the mask tightly with the metal strips of the mask to make a paper towel bag.

Paper towels can absorb moisture, while masks have relatively good breathability and can also lock in absorbed moisture.

Put them in the refrigerator, and the paper towels will absorb excess water vapor to prevent the refrigerator from freezing.

However, the absorbency of paper towels will decrease when they become wet. Therefore, if we find that the paper towels are completely soaked, remember to take them out and dry them in the sun before putting them in the refrigerator for further use.
