Hmm. Perhaps you should be giving her better perfume. :-)

You can buy one at Home Depot to put on your furnace filter.

They work for a few hours and then that is that.

With women, and construction crews, you can't have it all ... and that is that.

Or a package of Gasex.

I've never known anyone to spray a filter, but I do know people that attach laundry dryer sheets to their filters to accomplish the same thing.

LOL... I am betting that none of the women in your family were looking over your shoulder while entering this response.

When vacuuming I place a couple of drops of vanilla essence on the filter. The whole house smells nice and fresh John

Reminds me of a story my stepdad told me. His first wife told him that she would be good in one room of the house. Kitchen, living room, bathroom, bedroom. They went out a lot and hired a maid.

My wife does that as well but she just sucks up a fresh dryer sheet into the vac.

Since I'm a bachelor, I can get away with a drop or two of my Old Spice after shave lotion on the bag. Another way is with a few drops of essential oil (lemon, lavender, whatever ya got) in an old, rinsed Febreeze bottle filled with water. 20 drops makes a quart of nice, non-chemical air freshener which doesn't leave a buildup on furniture, clothes, floors, or carpets.

Email your idea to Johnson's Way in Racine. I'm sure we'll one day see such a product.

I wish I'd gotten the same offer. I'd have made the same choice.

I know folks who buy the hang from the rear view mirror in the car air fresheners and hang them in front of the furnace filter
