How to Clean the Plug in Scented Oil Warmers
Plug-in scented oil warmers come in the shape of a night-light with a stiff plastic cage mounted in front of an electrical plug. A small reservoir of scented oil goes in the plastic cage; when the unit is plugged in, the oil warms and the scent diffuses. These units are a popular way to scent your home. However, because the oils can leak slightly from the bottle, the units should be cleaned regularly. Does this Spark an idea?
