Smoke Damage 101: Don’t Let the Toxins Take Over!

When smoke damage hits, it’s not just the smell—it’s the silent, invisible danger lurking in your home! Let’s walk you through some need-to-know facts, fun tips, and what to do when your home feels like a bonfire aftermath.

🚨 The Truth About Smoke Damage 🚨

• Smoke isn’t just a bad smell

  It contains toxic particles that can stick to walls, furniture, and even your lungs.

  
  

  

• Hidden residue

  You may not see the soot on your walls, but your body (and pets!) can sense the harmful air quality.

• Health risks

  Prolonged exposure can lead to headaches, breathing problems, and more.

  Spoiler alert: It’s not something you can just "air out."

🤯 Fun Fact Meme Break: 💀

"When you light one scented candle to cover up the smoke smell—congrats, you now have a smoke-scented lavender disaster."

But seriously, DIY isn’t always the answer for heavy-duty smoke damage. Still, there are ways to get started safely!

DIY Smoke Cleanup: What You Can Do

1. Open Up (But Carefully)

Ventilation is key! Open your windows, but avoid turning on fans or air conditioning that can spread soot.

2. Mask Up

We’re talking more than your average dust mask—grab an N95 to filter harmful particles.

3. Baking Soda to the Rescue

Sprinkle it on fabrics, carpets, and rugs to absorb odors before vacuuming.

4. White Vinegar Wipe-Down

Mix equal parts vinegar and water, and wipe down non-porous surfaces to neutralize odor.

5. Toss What’s Beyond Saving

If something’s soaked in smoke—like porous materials or insulation—sometimes it’s best to let it go. 💔
