New Humidor - Problem

[Tombstone]

Charcoal (activate carbon) from a pet supply store with fish works wells.
Old newspapers crinkled up also work as does baking soda.

Since baking soda is so cheap just buy a whole bunch, grab some cookie sheets, spread the baking soda on them and place in the cabinet. If that doesn't do the trick you'll have to air it out for a while.

I second the Newspaper. I used it for my coolidor and it worked great and did not cost me anything.

The newspaper is quite an interesting suggestion. Do I just crumple up a bunch and toss it in the humi and then shut the door? Anything more to it than that?

Man I washed my tupperdor with baking soda and water, Put a bowl of Vinegar in it, Put News paper in it... Nothing took the smell out. Finally made a paste almost of baking soda and water, wiped it down with that and let it dry to a film. Let that sit over night, then washed it out and it was finally clear of any smell. Unfortunately you can't do that with the wood humi lol. If it's realllllly bad I would go right for the charcoal. I tried news paper in my travel humi that smelled like smoke from the shop I got it at and it did not work.
