Farts are made of natural gas.
Match flames will burn up the gas and remove the oder pretty fast.

OOOh OOOh OOOh... my grandma taught me this one!
In the olden days, before air freshener was invented, they burnt a match or two to get rind of the smell after doing a #2.
My mom still keeps a book of matches in her bathroom for that purpose.

Because the sulphury match burn off is so foul it covers up even poo. My mom used to make us light matches after we were done. It's like incense for poor stupid people. Sorry mom.

farts contain methane gas that ur body makes wile digesting ur food. its flamible but not very much. next time u have to pass gas sit on the potty and have a match lit under ur bootie and see what it does

Something about the sulfur released when the match is blown out eliminates the smell.

because it stinks..lol...and the fire dissolves the smell...
but here's an idea with a match and farts.....
lol... when you fart, methane gets released from your butt hole (kiddie way of saying it)...methane is a flamable gas, so when you light a match close to your butt and you fart...the flame will get bigger because of the gas...(not so much bigger because you do not have a lot of methane)
