I’m going to visit my grandfather this weekend. His house smells like a skunk rolled around in some rotten cabbages, died, and got eaten and pooped out by a water buffalo. Thankfully I dont have to sleep there, but I do have to visit for a few hours, a couple days in a row. Last time, I wore a mask with mint toothpaste rubbed inside, which didn’t help at all.
Google is failing me; the only results I can find are how to get rid of a smell, and that’s just not possible here without a great deal of fire. So can anyone recommend how to live with a uniquely terrible smell for a few days?
What a great description 😆
Honestly, I don’t think there’s much you can do but I have a relative who is a nurse and they mentioned they double up on face masks and basically overdose on strongly smelling stuff. Mint drops, gum, toothpaste between the masks, essential oils, etc. I know you’re not looking for ways to deal with the smell but opening some windows will help as well.
Thanks for being honest with us.
