Cleaning experts issue a warning. Read it carefully.
You need to clean your fridge regularly. Why? Unfortunately, food can spoil or stain the appliance, which can leave an unpleasant smell. However, it is important to use the right products.
For example, Angela Bell, a cleaning expert quoted in the Kitchn, advises never to use bleach to clean the fridge.
According to the expert, “most appliance manufacturers advise against using bleach to clean the fridge, as it can damage the materials inside”.
It can also create “a safety risk if it is transferred to food,” he adds.
For this reason, it “recommends a solution made with just one part white vinegar and three parts water in a sprayer”, which it describes as a non-toxic and effective cleaning solution.
