Mrs. Fastidious: How to Keep Your Laundry Smelling Fresh during the Rainy Season
Laundry odour and the rainy season unavoidably come together. Humidity keeps your clothes damp on the drying racks. Wearing these musty clothes not only drives people away but will likely draw bacteria in, too. This is why now is the perfect time to share some tips on how to keep your laundry smelling fresh all through the rainy months.
Let’s start at the very beginning of the laundry cycle. When was the last time you cleaned your washing machine? Grime from your dirty laundry stick to all the nooks and crannies inside the machine, and loading more laundry into a smelly washer just won’t help with the odour problem. Make sure you clean your washing machine periodically so your next laundry batch won’t smell.
Sunny days are hard to come by, so drying your clothes in the sun during the rainy season is almost impossible. But one way to help reduce unwanted odour is to leave some distance between the pieces of clothing on the drying racks. This way, the better air flow takes the odour with it.
With constant humidity, you also need to be careful when storing your clothes. Musty closets and drawers won’t help with the stink, so place some odour neutraliser in the corner of the closet to keep the odour away. This will also keep your clothes smelling fresh for much longer.
We can’t really talk about this without talking about the ever-so-many laundry products that are designed specifically to help with musty odour. There is a variety to choose from these days, be it gel ball detergent or the traditional powder type. Choose whatever suits your style. Or get some ideas by visiting www.bigc.co.th.
