In order to avoid rust stains, mold and limescale smell on your clothes, the washing machine has to be cleaned regularly. Over time, the washer accumulates a lot of dirt that won’t go so easily when washing the laundry. Here’s how to clean your washing machine using some natural and handy ingredients.
You need:
– vinegar
– bleach
You must use these ingredients separately.
Start by mixing a cup of bleach with a cup of warm water. Soften a cloth in this solution and clean the accessible parts of the washing machine, including the interior and the front-load door seal.
Now, start a washing cycle using the highest temperature and add the above solution in the washer. Don’t add your laundry inside, leave the machine empty.
Add 2 cups of vinegar in the detergent dispenser and start another washing cycle using a high temperature.
Finally, to avoid vinegar or chlorine smell, start a rinsing cycle. Your washing machine will be like new and those bad odors will vanish.
