When using dishwasher capsules to remove the fishy smell from tableware, the following methods can be combined:
First of all, the acidic components of white vinegar can be used to remove the fishy smell. Place a bowl of white vinegar on the upper layer of the dishwasher and select the high-temperature cleaning mode to run it empty once. The white vinegar can effectively break down the remaining food residues and grease, thereby eliminating the fishy smell.
Secondly, you can try the double cleaning method. When cleaning for the first time, add an appropriate amount of detergent to ensure that the oil stains on the surface of the tableware are effectively removed. For the second cleaning, no detergent is added. Just run it with clean water to thoroughly rinse off the remaining detergent and reduce the production of fishy smell.
In addition, the decontamination and deodorizing effects of baking soda can also be utilized. Pour an appropriate amount of baking soda at the bottom of the dishwasher, and then start a simple washing program. This can effectively remove the unpleasant smell inside the dishwasher.
Besides, lemon juice or lemon slices are also good choices. The acidic components in lemon juice can neutralize unpleasant odors and produce a fresh taste. You can add a few drops of lemon juice after adding water to the faucet, or put lemon slices in the dishwasher to help remove the fishy smell.
Meanwhile, activated carbon can also adsorb odors. Put activated carbon balls or rods into the dishwasher, and they can adsorb odors and pollutants in the water, achieving the effect of removing fishy smell.
