How to remove the weed smell in your home

One of the most iconic aspects of marijuana is its smell. As distinctive as it is alluring, the scent of marijuana is one of the most recognizable smells in the world. It is also difficult to remove from rooms. Here’s how to get rid of the weed smell in your home!

There are a few things you can do to prevent your textiles and home from smelling of weed. However, it is always better to prevent the odor than to remove it once it has set in.

Here are 5 of the most useful pieces of advice when it comes to making your home as safe as possible from marijuana odor:

Use vaporizers

While there are many people who prefer to smoke joints and use bongs, vaporizers are effective when you want to consume something discreet that produces little or no smell. These devices heat marijuana instead of burning it, eliminating the weed smell (or at least a much more subtle version of it) and saving your clothes a trip to the laundry.

Smoke Buddies are a little clunky, but they’re a cheap and portable option that will help you get rid of any lingering marijuana smoke. With these devices, you can blow smoke directly into it, making your environment odor-free. You can also make a sploof, which is cheaper and just as effective, and only requires a few dryer sheets and a cardboard toilet paper roll.

Febreze masks the smell of weed even if your home smells of chemicals. If you prefer a more natural scent, you can try incense, which also produces a strong and distinct smell that masks the smell of marijuana.

Unlike candles, incense produces a very strong odor that can mask most other smells. By lighting it up while smoking, you mask the smell of the weed when you exhale and prevent the smell from staying in the room, which is very useful and discreet.

A common way to smoke low temperature marijuana is to smoke in the bathroom while the shower is running. The water needs to be hot to create some steam, which in turn will mix with the marijuana smoke and drive away the smell.

A very sneaky move would be to restrict smoking to your bathroom. While that’s pretty limiting, if you have a bathroom with a fan, turn it on to drive the smell away. Light a match and you can mask most of the smell.

Although this measure is extreme, it is an effective way to mask the smell of marijuana. Burnt popcorn smells very strongly and will stay in your house for hours, maybe even days. However, if you choose this option, you are essentially trading one scent for another. Hopefully you know how to remove the burnt popcorn smell from your home.
