Before putting clothes in the washing machine, you should carefully check and sort clothes by material and color. Check if there are any forgotten items in the pockets, especially sharp metal objects to avoid clothes being worn and torn when washing as well as increase the durability of the washing machine.
Sorting clothes is to avoid light-colored clothes from being stained by washing them with dark clothes or low-quality dyed clothes.
- Soak clothes before washing
Some types of fabric are very difficult to wash when dirty, such as cotton, kate, etc. Or thick clothes, shirts, when washed with other items, are also very difficult to clean completely.
It is better to put the clothes in the washing machine, fill it with water, dissolve the detergent/laundry liquid, soak the clothes for about 20-30 minutes, then press the start button. Thanks to that, the stains will loosen and be easily removed when washing.
- Add rice vinegar to the washing machine
This is a good tip that every housewife needs. You just need to put the clothes in the washing drum, fill it with water, add detergent and 200ml of rice vinegar. Start the machine so that the detergent and rice vinegar are dissolved, absorbed into the clothes, then turn off the machine. Soak the clothes for 20 minutes and then press the button to wash as usual.
Not only does it remove many stubborn stains such as fruit juice, oil, etc., rice vinegar also effectively removes unpleasant odors that linger on fabrics.
