Taping a scented clothes dryer sheet to the back of a fan.
Running a portable fan is a good way to circulate air, but they can also be used to deodorize a musty room, such as a basement or workshop, to keep it smelling fresh.
Simply tape a scented clothes dryer sheet to the back of a portable fan. When the fan is turned on, scented air is drawn through the dryer sheet and circulated throughout the room.

Joe Truini: Portable fans are really great for circulating air in enclosed spaces where you may have stale really musty airbasement, garage, workshop, playroom, anything like that. And if the space is also used to store trash and recycling and work boots, not only do you want to circulate that air, but also deodorize it.
And one way to do that is with dryer sheets. You can get these at any supermarket, and theyre used for putting into a clothes dryer. And if you buy the scented kind, this is lavender, you can use them to deodorize the air, and heres how.
Take a small strip of duct tape, and stick the dryer sheet to the back of the fan. And this is the rear of the fan where its drawing air in. You just have to tape it right near the top like that.
And now, when you turn on the fan, as it draws air through the dryer sheet, on this side youll get cool circulating air that smells great.
