Laundry ?

When I wash and dry my bath towels they have a musty smell after the dry.. Any suggestion on what to do to get that smell out? TIA

Re: Laundry ?

  • Do you wash them on hot?  It almost sounds like they're not getting quite clean enough.  Maybe some vinegar in a rinse to help get everything rinsed out? 

    Hope you can figure it out - I hate smelly towels.

  • Mine get like that sometimes and I hate it. I add a double scoop of detergent, vinegar in the wash and vinegar in the final rinse and do one last quick rinse. That helps. Hope something works for you.
  • I wash them alone in very hot water. I will try the vinegar today. Thanks
  • I've also found throwing a little washing soda in really gets them good and clean.

  • I just add a small amount of vinegar to my wash when I need to get rid of smells.  It seems to work great for us.  I also always use Borax with regular detergent and that makes all the difference in the world with DH's nasty Vibram 5-Fingers (those shoes are like socks and get soooo smelly!).
