Cold weather on the way. Dug out some winter long underwear and shirts. They have a musty smell.
What's the best way to get rid of it?
Thanks
I assume you've tried washing them. If you have, then throw them in a bag and febreze them. You could also use those scented fabric softener sheets in the dryer after washing them.
If you haven't washed them, then you know.. wash them.
Yes, they were washed.
Did some looking up.
I wash in cold water. Probably need to use hot water. Then dump a cup of vinegar in during rinse cycle.
Scenting does not kill the mold spores that cause the smell.
Think I will try a hot wash and vinegar rinse.
Yeah, I was going to suggest vinegar, but I didn't realize it was mold that you were dealing with.
I believe that is what causes the musty smell. You don't need stains and mold growths to get the smell.
Supposedly a simple wash in hot water and then hung in the sun to dry does it. UV kills the spores.
Hang them out in the sun. Not the cloudy day sun, but a really good sunny day sun. Molds, mustiness etc will go away in a few hours. Remember to turn the clothes inside out and dust it occasionally throughout the day.Cold weather on the way. Dug out some winter long underwear and shirts. They have a musty smell.
