Your washing machine is dirty and smells funny ?
Maybe it's time to take care of her if she smells bad...
Because it washes our laundry every day, but we often forget to wash it.
And soap, grime, mold and bacteria will settle in the nooks and crannies.
All this leads to black marks and a horrible smell...
However, doing a complete cleaning is not complicated at all.
In addition, it can be done in a natural way without the need for bleach.
Grandma's natural trick to cleaning her washing machine is to use Epsom salt and white vinegar. Watch:
- 200g Epsom salt
- 250 ml of white vinegar
- hot water
- clean cloth
1. Fill the washing machine with hot water.
2. Add Epsom salt and white vinegar.
3. Run the machine empty for just a few minutes.
4. Then pause and let the mixture work for at least 2 hours.
5. Run a rinse cycle.
6. Mix Epsom salt and water and soak a cloth in this solution.
7. Open the washing machine lid and wipe the inside of the drum, filter and detergent drawer to remove any stubborn dirt.
8. If needed, run an extra cycle to rinse and be sure the dirt is gone.
9. Repeat the operation approximately every two months.
And There you go ! Your washing machine that was clogged and very dirty is now spotless :-)
Easy, fast and efficient, right?
A machine like new in two steps three movements.
You don't even need to use chemicals like Calgon or bleach to clean it.
Remember to maintain your machine regularly.
This is important for hygiene, but also for the life of the machine.
If it is well maintained, it will work much longer without having to change it. A great way to save money.
This trick is valid for porthole or top-loading machines.
And whatever the brand:Bosch, Miele, Whirlpool or Samsung.
White vinegar helps fight mold naturally.
It also neutralizes bad odors by acting against bacteria.
Epsom salt is also a good natural antibacterial.
It will clean the machine by removing gel or powder detergent residue.
Obviously, this deep and ecological cleaning works for all washing machine brands:
Featured, Thomson, Siemens, Proline, Laden, Indesit, Ariston, Electrolux, Candy, Brandt or Beko.
And both for machines with top opening and porthole.
