- Cynthia Hon Jul 27, 2017I love these bags: https://smile.amazon.com/Moso-Natural-Purifying-Eliminator-Eliminates/dp/B004BOH6BM/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1501183617&sr=8-3&keywords=bamboo+charcoalIf you have an odor:First I wash the item with hot soapy water (with a microfiber cloth if it can't be thrown in the wash). Air dry (with sunshine if possible).Then, with items I'm closing up like a suitcase, I toss in the charcoal bag. They are rechargeable in the sunshine and biodegradable after two years of use.HelpfulReply
