Keeping My Apartment Smelling Fresh?Hi. I live in a small one bedroom apartment, and there really doesn't seem to any air circulation so it smells musty, especially if I'm gone for the weekend and there is little garbage and it's closed, when I come back and walk in it smells bad. I can't take out the garbage right before I leave because I am only allowed by the city to take out the garbage on certain days. I use febreeze but I really do not have time on my hands to constantly clean. Is there anything I can do to keep my apartment smelling fresh? Please help.
