Cleaning washing machines! Now that’s something we’re have not thought of and not too bothered about. However, did you know that uncleaned washing machines can be the main hub for deadly viruses and bacteria? But why do we need to clean a washing machine in the first place! What is all the fresh soap and water and fabric softener for! Does it not clean the washing machine already?

Researchers and reports tell that while washing machines cleans your dirtiest laundry, it in itself gets dirtier with every wash. When a washing machine remains uncleaned for long periods of time, a layer of soap water residue, fabric softener, chemicals and minerals get built in the drain tubes, detergent drawer, filter, and outer part of the washing tub. If this layer is left as it is for quite some time, it can breed very harmful drug-resistant bacteria. To add to the conundrum, cold-water and mildly hot-water washes lets this bacteria and virus flourish in the teeny-weeny corners of the washing machine. Waters of high temperature can kill this germ and bacteria, but you cannot wash clothes in hot water. And this where the real confusion lies!

Worry not, here are a few life-hacks you can use to keep your washing machine healthy and clean.

  1. WHITE VINEGAR OR APPLE CIDER VINEGAR WASH

Add 2 cups of white vinegar or unfiltered apple cider vinegar to your detergent tray. If your machine does not have a detergent tray, dump it in the tub directly. Keep your machine to the hottest water settings possible so that you get rid of most of the mould and mildew in the first wash itself. Pour water into the machine and start it for about 5 to 7 minutes. Once done, drain the dirty water.

2. RINSE FOR THAT EXTRA WASH To be doubly sure, start the hot water flow into your machine once again and set the timer for about 5 minutes. You do not have to add anything to the water this time and let the machine rinse only with water. Drain the dirty water out once done.

3. RINSE FOR THAT EXTRA WASH To be doubly sure, start the hot water flow into your machine once again and set the timer for about 5 minutes. You do not have to add anything to the water this time and let the machine rinse only with water. Drain the dirty water out once done.

4. LAST TOUCHES Your washing machine is now healthy. However, lets add a little more to our health and clean the exterior of the machine. Take 1/4th part bleaching powder/liquid and add it to one cup of warm water. Now take a clean cotton cloth and dampen it into this solution. Rub this damp cloth all over the machine to clean its exterior.

Yayy!! You followed it all. Your washing machine is safe for you and your family now. And if you don’t want to mess around cleaning washing machines or have time to wash your clothes.
