make him cook it outside next time! lol, lord i cant stand a deep fryer in the house..can never get rid of the smell. sorry im not any help, but i sure know how you feel, and ive tried every trick in the book..winter or summer outside it goes!

I agree with Loggerbaby! I make DH fry it outside. No smell and NO mess in the house. Perfect. :-)

Logger he usually does but we were out of propane so he did it on the stove...uckkyyyy I have the bedroom door shut and is not so bad back here...I am in bed with a headache (again) and when I walk to the front of the house ackkk...stacy

Lite a couple of candles or set out a couple bowls of vinegar. Vinegar is how I get rid of cig smoke and I use candles for bacon smells

Fabreeze makes a candle that seems to work good. It is big, in a small jar and last awhile.

I do have a woodwick candle going to lite it and will also do the vinegar...if I didn't live out of town I would go get the frabreeze candle...it it still smells tomorrow I will...thanks guys....Stacy

I always simmer a small pot with water and vanilla in it on the stove for a few hours.

Got that too bigbaby will try it next!! Stacy

cinnamon sticks in water too...

I want the fish your hubby fried!

Big time fish lover! Any which way!

Well if you lived closer,I'd suggest you come by the shop and get a Smoke Out candle! Burn it for a bit..and it'll eliminate ANY odor! The candle is barely scented, but I keep one here all the time. Use it for pet odors, cooking odors and smoke! Works great!

YUCK---I think I'd just move away for a few days! LOL

Hi again grinch g,

You're retired, aren't you ... so not attached by leg chains to a place of employment?

Sounds like time for a mini-vacation.

Sorry that you have a headache to cope with: I very seldom have one, but I sure don't like 'em.

Don't have much in the way of a suggestion as to a method of reducing the odour ... I'd don't smell too well (by which I mean that my nose doesn't work nearly as well as some people's noses do, in case you're wondering).

How does this game work ... "I don't smell too well", means that my nose doesn't work very well ... but, "I don't smell too good", means that anyone with a sensitive nose would be wise to give me a wide berth ...

... doesn't it?

I hope that some of the advice offered earlier works.

ole joyful

My son stayed with me four days and I let him smoke in the house even though he suggested he go outside. I told him if he lived here I would want him to smoke outside, but a few days isn't going to cause any lasting damage, even though he smokes one right after the other. The candles and vinegar did the trick in no time.

I love fried fish !! Yummers, but you are correct about the after scent. Not good. I have an elecric fryer that I use outside to deep fry fish in and that saves so much grief for me. I detest the smell it leaves inside.

Do you boil the vinigar to get rid of the smell of tobacco? DH smokes in his own "smoking room" and OMG it stinks something awful in there and I thought maybe of trying to do something to try to alleviate some of that smell.

Eek! I feel your pain.

The only sure fire thing that works for me is a Lampe Berger.

Well for those of you who want the fish come and get it...besides can't stand eating it...I can't stand the smell...I lite my candle and put the vinger out in a bowl and it was fine by the next day (blew candle out before I went to sleep).....no more for him in the house...I think I own a ele. fry pan...if not I am going to LOL Stacy

It's a man thing Grinch......my DH does the same thing and never can smell anything "off putting" shall we say, when he fries up a mess of fish.....or cooks up some seafood. My favorite (NOT)....is when he sits and takes the heads off shrimp.....after he boils up a mess of them..crunch crunch.....gag, gag. Then leaves the "bits" on a plate for me to dispose of.

fry daddy and an extension cord outside, thats what i meant to say..sorry about that.
