Hand-washing promotes good health. Just do it
Groom yourself, or keep the un-groomed self vigorously tidy
Trim your fingernails. They harbour germs and they damage your body when you scratch with them
Use deodorants and perfumes. Even a cheap perfume usually smells better than a body odour
Food
Keep it covered. Keep it well cooked
Separate raw and cooked food
Domestic
Tidy up after yourself
Clean visible dirt on home surfaces
Comments
Body odour is not noticeable by the person who has it. Wear deodorants as a routine
Being un-groomed can be desirable, but it should be kept as clean as possible
Use sprays to freshen the odour
