Homemade Sport Bag Spray

Stinky sports bags. Between sweaty shoes, dirty shin guards and sweaty T shirts it seems like gym bags don’t stand a chance.

We’ve been wiping ours out after each use, but the stinky smell never quite seemed to go away…until now.

I used some of our essential oils to create my own homemade sports bag spray and the smell is gone.

Homemade Sports Bag Spray

• small spray bottle
• warm water
• lemon essential oil
• melaleuca alternifolia essential oil (tea tree oil)

We have started to explore essential oils and I love the idea of using them in place of cleaning products with lots of chemicals. To make the gym bag spray I chose the melaleuca and the lemon to help cleanse and sanitize the bags.

I filled the bottle with some warm spring water and added 4-5 drops of lemon and 3-4 drops of melaleuca and then sprayed it inside the bag. And the smell was gone! Thank goodness.
