Methods to alleviate unpleasant odors:
- Ventilate: Turn on your HVAC system, attic fan, or open some windows. Placing the item in front of or beneath a fan can also be effective. Plug in an air purifier if you have one.
- Temperature: Heat and humidity can intensify the odor, but also quicken the process, so please consider that when deciding how to ventilate. A cool, dry, slow, and steady method might be more appropriate if you are affected by scents.
- Allow the panels to air out for a few days: If space doesn't allow for this, you might also consider opening doors or drawers.
- Place a bowl of baking soda nearby: As an alkaline substance, baking soda is a tried-and-true method for absorbing odors. Activated charcoal and coffee grounds are also said to be effective at neutralizing smells.
