Masking Stinky Smells (like garbage)

Tweet

Growing up, my parents always put food garbage in tin foil before throwing it in the trash. Wrapping something tightly in foil, really seems to mask the smell. Great to prevent animals and/or bugs (maggots) getting into the trash. Not only that, but we also wrapped stinky diapers in foil. I always buy the generic, and cheapest foil. But as far as dirty diapers are concerned, yeah, they do sell those blue, powder scented bags. But, they only slightly cover the smell. However, tightly wrapping a stinky (AKA "poopy") diaper in tin foil, really seems to eliminate the bad odor. This is especially great for trash cans (diaper pails) in small rooms. My sister and I over-see the nursery @ our church, and we provide foil for nursery attendants to wrap the dirty diapers in.
