<h3><strong>Dryer Sheets</strong></h3>
<div>
Another cleaning method is to use dryer sheets. Simply take unused dryer sheets and place them inside the device overnight so they can absorb any cigarette smell inside of it. This cleaning solution should help reduce odors in your electronic devices after some time, but you might need to repeat this process several times before noticing a difference!

<h3><strong>Natural Air</strong></h3>
<div>
Some people like to place their smoke-damaged electronics outside in a sunny spot on a nice day, too, with hopes that sunlight will help rid devices of cigarette smell. If the weather is nice and you live in a safe place, you can even leave the device outside for a few days. Just be careful because heat and prolonged sun exposure can cause damage to screens and electronics.

When I worked at Hudson, they would just leave it out somewhere to air out overnight and febreeze everything

Following for the suggestions! We're battling this same issue and haven't come up with any efficient solutions yet.

I was wondering if anyone else is having this problem and has found a good solution:
</div>
<div class="x_x_gmail_default" style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif; font-size: large; color: #000000;">
</div>
<div class="x_x_gmail_default" style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif; font-size: large; color: #000000;">
We loan electronics in cases with foam padding, or in zipper bags. When these are checked out to a patron who smokes or lives in a smoky environment, the items come back smelling like smoke. We have trouble getting rid of the smell for the next patron. Anyone have an effective solution? Thank you!
