The idea of baking soda in the fridge is not to cover up bad smells, it's to absorb ALL odors so they don't mingle. I have a box of baking soda in my fridge but when something is bad, nothing will cover it up.
I was in the hospital for two weeks. When I got home, my son and I had to deal with a package of chicken that I had removed from the freezer the day I was hauled off to the ER and admitted. I had put it in the fridge to thaw (thank you Lord!) and it was a terrible smell. All the baking soda on Earth wouldn't have absorbed that stench!

Again, nothing credible.
The one link refers to a 26 year old article, and does not work. The second one is a self serving blog.
No. Credible. Citations.
Look, when someone spreads fear and 'information', it is our duty to follow it up to see if it is credible. When nothing indicates it is, then those that follow that FUD factor are no better than the anti-vaxers.
I have a couple of ceramic "rings" that sit on light bulbs. Depending on the season I put a few drops of essential oils and when the light is on, it heats them up and difusses them. Same concept as what a poster said about oils and a warmer, but this way you can put them throughout the house and the rings are very inexpensive. I have used lilac, people, honeysuckle, plumeria in the spring and summer, and clove, cinnamon, cedar and pine in the fall and winter.

Put spices in a pan on the stove. Cinnamon, cloves, etc. Let them simmer (note: pan must also have *water* in it!).
