This tip is backed up by Karina Toner, professional cleaner and operations manager at Speckless. She says: “A small sprinkle – about ½ to 1 teaspoon – is more than enough.
“You don’t need much to freshen the air as you vacuum, and using too much can overwhelm the vacuum’s filters or motor.”
As reported by Homes and Gardens, the best method is to sprinkle ground cinammon powder directly into your hoover’s dustbin. Or if it’s an old school bagged hoover, just sprinkle it directly onto the floor and then suck it up.
Homes and Gardens adds: “If you’re often vacuuming pet hair or cleaning up smelly food crumbs, you might want to do it before each clean. If not, stick to whenever it’s really necessary to avoid overfilling your vacuum.”
