ZEOLITE REFRIGERATOR FRESHENERS
A Fridge’s Best Friend
Keep the inside of refrigerators fresh and deodorized with odor-munching, mold inhibiting zeolite, a naturally occurring, highly absorbent mineral found in lava rock.

Once it has soaked up funky odors and moisture for about a year, it can be laid out in direct sunlight for a day to dry and be ready to work again. Before long, you’ll find other homes for zeolite’s deodorizing power, such as closets, cars, and garbage cans.
