?dishwasher deodorizer?
 
Recently, someone posted a recommendation for an unusual dishwasher deodorizer - and I, of course, need it, and I don't remember what it is! HELP PLEASE!!!

Perhaps try white vinegar-? I use it in the rinse area~

a cup of Tang in an empty dishwasher is a common one

Sears sells a bottle of cleaner that you run in either the dishwasher or regular washer. It works great! It is called dishwasher majic.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I knew I'd get a quick answer from my buddies here, even though many of you (and I) are watching the Olympics!

Anything citrus has deodorizing properties.

I just throw a handful of bicarbonate of soda in the bottom of the dishwasher if it starts to smell, and it gets flushed out at the next wash. I can't understand the theory of cleaning your dishwasher. Surely it gets cleaned out every time you run it?

I use white vinegar and baking soda to get rid of smells. Efficient and inexpensive.
