Any tips, hints or products someone could recommend to remove the smell of
cigarette smoke from the home of ex-heavy smokers?

Flair ionozer by Ecoquest. Had a fire in my son's room- smoldering
mattress smell would gag you. My brother-in-law brought over his Flair
ionozer that he paid $350 for. 2 days later the room smelled like a
spring day.

Went to ebay & bought one for about $150.

These are *real* ionizers, not the toy [ionic breeze] that you see on
TV all the time. [another family member bought one of those to get rid
of ciggarette smell and it didn't work for her]

The literature says it will kill mold & mildew but I haven't had a
chance to test that.
