If your clothes come out of the malodorous washing machine, do not buy a new machine right away. Instead, learn this trick…

Step 1. Disinfect your washing machine with bleach Smells
Unpleasant can happen in different parts of your washing machine. Therefore, start by cleaning the most important part of the machine: the drum.

With front-loading washing machines, the problem arises that water and detergent remain in the detergent dispenser and door seal. Residual water and detergent attract bacteria and create an environment conducive to the growth of malodorous fungi.

Mix bleach with an equal amount of water. Then take a towel and moisten it with diluted bleach. Then wipe the places you can reach. This also applies to the area under the rubber. There will be places you can’t reach. Then leave the towel wetting with bleach for 30 minutes. This kills mould.

Step two. Disinfect your washing machine and remove the mould odour with vinegar
Once the machine is ready, pour a half-liter of white vinegar where you normally put the detergent. Let the machine run empty again on the highest setting. There you go. You’re done and your washing machine is flawless again. This is a cost-effective and efficient way of cleaning the machine.
