A warm spatula can help you defrost your freezer without turning it off if you use it correctly. It must be made of metal and must be heated over a fire. Then scrape the ice off the walls of the freezer to melt it. As a precaution, wear gloves before performing this method to avoid burning yourself.

Defrost the freezer naturally

If you are not in a hurry to defrost the refrigerator and do not want to resort to any of the methods indicated above, opt for natural defrosting, that is, the ice melts little by little and without the help of tools. To do this, open the door to let the heat in and melt the ice.

Finally, place a container to drop the ice water into. This is the safest method to defrost your freezer , but also the slowest.

Once it’s completely thawed using one of the methods above, it will also be much easier to clean . Simply wipe with a damp cloth and if it is very dirty wipe it with a little white vinegar or baking soda, then rinse with hot water.
