During winter, your home storage becomes more susceptible to mold, mildew, and musty odors, which can leave your clothing and other items looking and smelling a little lackluster come spring.

That's why we recommend the Arm & Hammer Deodorizer Odor Busterz available at Amazon – over 2,000 were bought last month alone.

You may have heard of the baking soda hack for closets, and these clever odor-busting balls utilize the exact same concept as a natural and effective solution to banishing musty odors.

Suitable for laundry rooms, closets, furniture, sports kit, and even for popping in your suitcase when travelling, these long-lasting and convenient balls work for up to 60 days, releasing a fresh and clean scent.

As one satisfied shopper writes, 'Let me tell you, these little spheres of freshness are like tiny superheroes fighting off even the most formidable stinks in our home,' the 11,000 five-star reviews of this solution to a musty-smelling home speak for themselves.

'Without exaggeration, these Odor Busterz balls are like magical deodorizing fairies,' they continue. 'They possess an uncanny ability to neutralize odors in the most unexpected places.

'From the shoe closet where funky aromas had taken permanent residence to the depths of the fridge where food mysteriously conquers your sense of smell, these little warriors fearlessly blend into any environment.'

You can also pair them with hanging moisture absorbers to tackle closet mold, to store winter clothes correctly, and if 'Clean Burst' isn't your scent of choice, they're also available in Calming Lavender, Forest Pine, Fresh Burst, White Linen, and even Pumpkin Cream, all available to shop on Amazon.
