Why does my microwave get rusty inside?

How to keep food containers from smelling?

Take advantage of the sun’s natural ability to fight odours by placing containers outside on a sunny day to air them out. Rinse them with white vinegar and let them sit for at least two to three minutes before washing them with hot water and dish soap.

Foods and grease can harden the residue and cause rusting inside your microwave. It’s best to clean your microwave after every use. Tackle stubborn stains as follows: Put a lemon slice in a cup of hot water. Place the bowl in the microwave and use a low setting for a few minutes to generate steam. This should help loosen whatever is on the microwave’s interior. Then scrub the interior with a damp cloth and baking soda.
