Luckily, apple cider vinegar offers a natural remedy for cigarette smoke, and you can use it in a few ways to clear up the smoke in your home.

Things You Will Need

  • Small open containers
  • Spray bottle
  • Dust rag
  1. Pour apple cider vinegar into several small open containers and place them around your home. Use a small dish in each corner of the room if the room is large or is smoked in often. Leave them in place until the air quality improves. The vinegar actually absorbs the odors and can eradicate them from the air.

  2. Fill a spray bottle with equal parts apple cider vinegar and water and replace the cap. Shake it gently to mix the vinegar and water together.

  3. Spray the mixture over walls and other surfaces that have been exposed to smoke. Do not, however, spray the mixture onto any electronic devices. Wipe the spray and the residue away with a dust rag.
