     Then you want to add about 1/4 cup baking soda to deodorize with the cleaning power of the vinegar. Go into your bathroom where you can use the tub or sink and fill your container about 1/4 of the way full with water. Shake the solution around very well and shake the bottle so it runs through every part, you may have to turn it sideways a few times. Then allow to sit about 20 minutes.
