How can I remove a garlic smell from my house?
My entire house smells like garlic, and I'm sick of it. Does anyone know an easy way to remove the smell that doesn't involve an air purifier?

What have you tried? Air purifiers may help somewhat, even if you borrow one. Maybe try Lysol spray, open windows and run a fan; even clean carpets if it has penetrated thru entire house to the point where it's not seeming to go away. If you feel like washing walls -- maybe in kitchen area if garlic seems to be stronger there, baking soda in dishes around the house, if no pets or kids can get to it to make a mess.
You could always make some spaghetti and garlic bread, put on some italian music in the background and enjoy the atmosphere of an italian restaurant too!

Get a natural citrus spray air deodorizer and burn some candles that are designed to remove odors.
You may want to try mixing some lemon juice with water, (diluted 3-1) and put in a spray bottle and lightly spray fabrics, including curtains.
You can also place dryer sheets in places that are hidden like under couches and behind furniture.
