As much as we want candles, oftentimes, they just don’t cut it when making our rental homes smell best. Moreover, open flames can be a major fire hazard. According to the National Fire Protection Association, candles start about 7,400 home structure fires per annum, causing 90 deaths and $291 million in property damage year over year. This statistic is why lots of Laguna Hills property managers try to discourage their renters from opting to use candles.
Given the dangers that candles hold, the wonderful news is that there are plenty of other (and safer) methods to freshen up the air in your home and lead to a comforting atmosphere without engaging in open flames.
Simmer Scented Herbs
One easy and uncomplicated process to make your home smell superb is to simmer a pot of water on the stove with fresh herbs, spices, or essential oils. You can experiment with certain combinations to find your favorite scent. This will fill the air with a wonderful fragrance and humidify dry winter air.
Essential Oil Diffuser
An essential oil diffuser is the best means to naturally fragrance your home without candles or any flame. All you ought to have is a diffuser, some water, and your top choice of essential oils. Plenty of different forms of diffusers on the market use many means to disperse essential oils into the air. Most diffusers utilize heat to vaporize the oils, while on the other hand, others use ultrasonic vibrations or fans.
Electric Wax Warmer
If you just can’t give up candles but, still opt to be safe, an electric wax warmer would be a nice solution. These devices use a cute light bulb or heating element to melt wax cubes or tarts, releasing the fragrance into the air without an open flame.
