I need help!
Edited on Sun Oct-30-05 03:05 PM by JonathanChance
Basically my roomate didn't cover the cap on the half gallon of milk he bought properly. Unbeknownst to me, the milk dripped to the bottom of my mini fridge, and now it stinks. Bad. Very bad. So bad that I am literally considering throwing it out tomorrow.

Is there any way I can somehow quicky save this fridge? I can't do anything today due to a party celebrating my niece's confirmation.

BTW, I can get another fridge for free from my relatives down here.

1. Try baking soda. Let it sit for an hour or so then clean it out.

3. First try to clean out the sludge. If it gets too bad then put some
on and let it soak. See what happens.

4. OK...
But I will have to do this outside. I don't think the rest of my floor wants their hallway stunk up to the point where they literally become severely nauseous.

5. It will take about 10 minutes to clean it out. Use a sponge, some hot
soapy water in a bucket or sauce pan, sop up the grossness, scrape it off, rinse the sponge, squeeze it out, rinse, and repeat.

Wipe it down with a paper towel when done.

This isn't difficult, I promise.

9. Hmmm, do you grasp that you're 'crying' over spilt milk?
Not really crying per se, but with all the time you've spent here worrying about this mild, irrelevent unpleasantness, it could have been cleaned up, done, handled, finished and you could be thinking and doing other things far less mundane and irrelevent?

It's not that serious. Trust me.

I've had to clean up human blood and brains in a couple of different scenarios.

Spilt, spoiled milk is nothing compared to wiping up baby and dog vomit, poop, pee and other assorted bodily fluids.

You'll be okay. Think of it as a test of fortitude. It's time to face the real world now, GET TO IT!

8. Clean it with Windex
It got the smell of dog poop off of my leather car seats.

:)
