 TrishNo ones feet smell as bad as Josh my 10 year old--but the orthotist
gave me this trick...We use it in the summer sometimes....  Boil a gallon of
water-add a dozen-18 tea bags--when it has cooled- get rid of the bags &
soak feet for 15 minutes. Store in a bottle for next day & repeat.   Keeps
odors away for a good month.     Joy
