A warm refrigerator creates many problems, but mildew and the stench that comes with it are no longer a problem. Simply put newspaper in your refrigerator whenever you have to turn it off. The newspaper will absorb excess moisture and prevent mildew.
The previous poster missed the point. The newspaper approach works brilliantly for absorbing *moisture*, thereby eliminating the potentiality for bacterial build-up. Preventing the order is, of course, preferable to absorbing it. I used 6 sheets of crumpled newspaper for this task yesterday. Great solution! 5*

Good idea. The newspaper does work some because of the carbon in the ink like the other reply says. I use a product called Fridge IT activated carbon odor absorbers. Really works great. This amazing purple cube absorbs my worst fridge odors and really lasts.
