Instructions:
After the vinegar wash, sprinkle 1 cup of baking soda directly into the drum of the washing machine.
Run another hot water cycle. The baking soda helps in further deodorizing your machine and can help remove any lingering vinegar smell.
**3. Cleaning the Detergent Drawer and Filter Detergent drawers and filters can harbor a significant amount of buildup and mold.
Instructions:
Remove the detergent drawer and soak it in hot, soapy water. Use an old toothbrush to scrub away any residue and rinse it thoroughly.
Check the manufacturer’s instructions for how to access and clean the machine’s filter. Typically, this involves unscrewing a panel and removing the filter to rinse under hot water.
**4. Wipe Down Exteriors and Seals Rubber seals and the door can trap moisture and debris, leading to mold and odors.
Instructions:
Mix equal parts water and vinegar in a spray bottle.
Spray the solution onto a microfiber cloth and use it to wipe down the exterior of the machine.
Carefully clean around and under the rubber seals of the door to remove any mold or buildup. Be gentle to avoid tearing the seals.
**5. Leave the Door Open After cleaning, leave the washing machine door open to air out and prevent moisture buildup, which is a common cause of mold and mildew.
**6. Monthly Maintenance Wash To keep your machine fresh and clean, run a maintenance wash once a month by repeating the vinegar and baking soda wash.
Benefits of Natural Cleaning: Using natural substances like vinegar and baking soda is safe and effective. Unlike chemical cleaners, they do not leave behind any harmful residues or strong odors. This method is also ideal for those with allergies or sensitivities to strong chemicals.
This routine is a straightforward and effective way to maintain your washing machine’s performance and ensure that your laundry stays fresh and clean.
