Febreeze is gross and can cause health problems. Bowl of vinegar (you can boil it first) -- leave it out for an hour or two and then rinse it down the drain. Completely non-toxic and doesn't leave that tell-tale Febreeze stench that so many middle-class houses have.

Can you link to a reputable website that says febreze is gross and can cause health problems? Also, it comes in an unscented version. So your home need not stink like washed masses of the middle class.

Febreze really only works on fabric, not the air. Boil clove water or lemon peels, set out sliced cucumbers, or get a de-humidifier if it's a windowless room.

Well this is a website, and I second that Febreeze is gross. It's disgusting.

OP, air out your room once a day. Put a fan in the window sucking the air out, then in. Not a big deal. Way better than [gross] Febreeze.

Will apple cider vinegar work?

Yes, any sort will. The stronger, the better. White is probably the best and cheapest for cleaning and deodorizing, though.

I have always used vinegar after painting a room. It does help. I have only ever used white vinegar so I can't tell you how apple cider vinegar is.

Apple Cider might attract fruit flies...

Which is awesome because if you add a squirt of dishsoap to the vinegar, they'll get sucked into it and drown. Win! Or maybe I'm the only person with a parrot whose cage/food attracts fruit flies in the summer.

I agree with the vinegar folks. If a problem , look for causes or buy an air filter.
