Stink on fleece sleepers?

Burrberrymum · October 2013

I have 2 fleece sleepers that smell so bad even after washing them.. It's only those 2 and a couple recieving blankets and a couple bibs of a towel material... Doesn't smell like milk or spit up but more like wet animal... It's so gross but I don't want to get rid of all this stuff. I was hoping someone knows what I'm talking about and might have tried something that works to get them to smell normal and clean again!?

I have washed stinky towels, etc by adding 1 cup of vinegar when you add soap. Always what's taken the smell out for me. Good luck!

Like Skalbrecht said, I have used vinegar to get sour stink out if dish cloths. I washed with just vinegar and then rewashed with my detergent.

Ditto on the vinegar. I have fleece zip ups and blankets that hold stink as well, I think it's just something about fleece and not anything to do with spit up. It just sometimes gets that wet dog smell. I think I may not be transferring from the washer to the dryer fast enough but the vinegar takes care of it.

Stupid laundry question. Do you add the vinegar directly to the drum or in the soap dispensing thingamajig up top on a front loading washer?

I add regular detergent in the normal spot and vinegar to the fabric softener dispenser.

I add vinegar to the drum and dilute with a little water before you put it in.
