Can I Use a Spray to Get Rid of Marijuana Smell?

Cannabis can be an enjoyable way to relax and get high, but its presence may leave behind unpleasant odors that might put off guests, family, and yourself. Frequent cleaning along with some simple tricks will help rid your home, clothes and car of cannabis’s smell.

To eliminate weed smell, the most effective strategy is opening your windows and allowing fresh air to circulate or running a fan. Baking soda and activated charcoal are both excellent odor absorbers; be sure to read reviews about these products prior to buying as some may not work as advertised or may contain harmful chemicals that are unsafe for both humans and pets.

Boiling vinegar or essential oils like lavender and citrus may provide temporary solutions, though these usually mask rather than eliminate odor. Scented candles and air fresheners may provide temporary cover-up, though keep in mind they may have strong fragrances of their own that could overpower any scent coming from marijuana plants.

There are various products designed specifically to eliminate odors, including bags, containers, smoke-odor-trapping devices and neutralizing sprays. If you choose this route, be sure to read reviews about these products to make sure they have worked for other customers successfully. Although these may be expensive solutions for eliminating odors from heavy usage areas.
