To make the solution more effective, use a spray bottle filled with a mixture of distilled water and a little vinegar. The mixture should be diluted so that it is not too harsh on the lungs. If you don’t like the odor, add a bit of water to the solution before spraying. You can also put a few bowls of vinegar in strategic areas around the room and leave them overnight.
