Where there's odor there's traces of food for bacteria to grow.
Soaking plastics and glassware in a warm, bleach water solution for 2 minutes, then air drying, kills bacteria and removes any residual odors. The bleach water solution, 1 tablespoon bleach to 1 gallon water, is safe on kitchen counters, drink ware, utensils, inside refrigerators, etc. It is not necessary to rinse after wiping or soaking objects with the bleach water solution, just let things air dry. There will be no smell of bleach after objects are dry.
Do not add more bleach than what is called for, more is not better, it's toxic.
Keeping to this ratio, 1 Tablespoon bleach to 1 gallon of water is safe. Always allow objects to dry before using.
