Default How does the old bread and vinegar trick work to get out old smells from wood?

I did this once but I cant remember how I did it, a bowl a vinegar with a piece of bread laying in the drawer or if I soaked the bread in vinegar then put it in the drawer? Anyone know what I am trying to do?

I think it has something to do with the acid in the vinegar.

Hi,

It is like this...

Soak the bread slice in vinegar ( even distilled vinegar will do) and leave the bread in the drawer overnight... This should help the smell to wear off...\

Hope this helped....
