Deodorizing your microwave with lemon is a simple and natural way to eliminate odors. Here's how you can do it:

Materials Needed:

• 1 lemon

• Water

• A microwave-safe bowl

• A spoon or knife

Steps to Deodorize Your Microwave:

1. Prepare the Lemon:
   Cut the lemon in half. Squeeze the juice from both halves into a microwave-safe bowl, and then drop the lemon halves into the bowl as well.

2. Add Water:
   Fill the bowl with about 1 cup of water. This mixture will help steam up and neutralize the odors.

3. Heat the Mixture:
   Place the bowl in the microwave and heat it on high for 3-5 minutes. Leave the microwave door closed during this time. The steam will build up inside, and the lemon’s natural oils and acidity will help remove unpleasant smells.

4. Let the Steam Work:
   After the timer goes off, allow the bowl to sit in the microwave for a few minutes. This gives the steam time to lift away any lingering odors.

5. Wipe the Interior:
   After the microwave has cooled down slightly, use a damp cloth or sponge to wipe down the interior, including the walls, ceiling, and turntable. The odor should be gone, leaving a fresh, citrus scent.

Optional Tip:

If you want to further enhance the scent, you can add a few drops of vanilla extract or a pinch of baking soda to the water mixture before microwaving.

This method is quick, natural, and effective in getting rid of stubborn odors from your microwave.
