Collecting all your family’s clothes into one hamper makes laundry day a little easier…and a little odorous. To make your hamper less offensive, cut off the bottom portion of one clean pantyhose leg and fill it three-quarters way with baking soda or scented kitty litter (the dust-free kind). Then tie the open end closed and put the baking soda—or litter-filled foot in your hamper. It will absorb moisture and help prevent stinky mildew from building up. Refresh the baking soda or kitty litter every month.
