How long does air fresheners. Last?
Hi Lisa,
How long the air freshener last will vary for different people. I usually use mine up within a couple months and they’ve always been fine.
To make them last as long as possible, start with clean and sanitized bottles, measuring cups, and any other tools you use.
Then make sure you use either distilled water or filtered water that’s been boiled and cool.
