Clothing is an essential item in our daily life, but sometimes we encounter the problem of clothing emitting an unpleasant odor. Not only does this affect our comfort, but it can also take a toll on our health. So, how do you avoid smelly clothes?Here are some effective ways to do it.
First of all, drying clothes is one of the important steps to avoid smelly clothes. In a dry environment, it is difficult for bacteria and fungi to multiply in large numbers, while a small number of microorganisms will not have much of an impact on clothing. In order to reduce the residual moisture on the washed clothes, we can use a hair dryer to dry the clothes, or take out the clothes and shake them after the washing machine is dehydrated, so that the clothes are smoother and less wrinkled. In addition, place clothes in a well-ventilated place to dry to reduce contact with each other and between the clothes and the wall, as the air circulation close to the wall is almost stagnant and difficult to dry. You can also lay paper such as newspaper under your clothing to absorb water vapor as quickly as possible.
In addition to effectively drying clothes, choosing a clothes dryer or washer-dryer can also effectively improve the odor problem of clothes. These devices are able to dry clothes in a short period of time, reducing the growth of bacteria and fungi.
Secondly, washing clothes effectively is also the key to avoiding smells. In summer, when we sweat excessively, we can first soak the clothes with water at 30°C-40°C, and the time should be more than 30 minutes to let the sweat dissolve from the clothes into the water. When washing normal clothes on rainy days, you can add long-lasting antibacterial detergents or fungicides to maintain an antibacterial environment. If the washed clothes have a peculiar smell, you can add a few drops of toilet water to clean water and soak for about 10 minutes before washing, or if possible, you can add fabric softener or conditioner to soak for a few minutes before washing. In addition, it is very important to disinfect and clean the washing machine regularly.
Although bacteria are very tenacious, as long as we do a good job of sterilization, eliminate the conditions for bacteria to breed, and do not provide an environment for bacteria to multiply in large numbers, even dry clothes will not have obvious odors.
To sum up, we can effectively avoid the problem of smelly clothes by effectively drying clothes and washing clothes effectively. Keep our clothes fresh and add comfort and joy to our lives!
