Our luggage has a moldy, musty smell after vacationing in the caribbean how can I get the smell out?
Joyce B asked:
I have tried Lyson spray and baking soda which I set in the box inside the luggage and it still smell musty.

Try wadded up newspapers stuffed to the max in every nook and cranny
put a couple of envelopes of unused coffee grounds in there as well
if that doesnt fix it its off to goodwill caretaker
Febreeze thenchanted one
Mix 1 part baking soda and 2 parts of a high carbon cat littler. (I use about 2 cups of baking soda and 4 cups of cat littler.) Put them in the foot of an old pair of pantyhose and tie it off. Place the bundle in the suitcase and close it. After a few days the littler and soda should have absorbed the smell.
Works for stinky shoes too if you make the bundle small enough to fit in the foot of the shoe. Brieanne K
not worth to keep. a couple of options –
a. give it away to salvation army b. put it into the garbage can. hope it helps.
ps. none of the material stuff we have are made to last forever. s t
That is a common challenge here. I use a solution of vinegar and water to wipe things down.
Sunshine also works very well if you can get them out in the sun. Barbados Chick
