As unpleasant as they may be, odors are a common issue that can be frustrating to resolve on your own. For effective and lasting odor removal, it’s crucial to first identify and locate the source of the problem.
### Identifying Odors
The first step in odor removal is to identify the type of odor present. Odors can be classified into three main categories:
– **Biogenic:** Odors caused by organic matter, such as food waste or pet urine
– **Chemical:** Odors resulting from cleaning products, smoke, or gasoline
– **Microbial:** Odors produced by bacteria or mold, often characterized by a musty or sour smell
### Locating Odors
Once the odor type has been identified, the next step is to locate its source. This can be challenging, especially for hidden odors under the house.
