Prevent Smelly Backpacks

Whether your kids use them for their smelly gym kit or you use a backpack to store a smelly lunch, there's no doubt about the fact that backpacks can have a distinct odor to them. And while you could throw them in the washing machine, there's an easier way to reduce the odor of your backpacks. As you can probably guess by now, that trick includes a soap bar and a Ziploc bag.

Simply pop the soap bar into the Ziploc bag and then place it into the backpack. It won't take up too much space, but will provide instant freshness that will make it smell so much better.
