Fed Up With Foul Smelling Clothes?

9/13/2019 (Permalink)

Fed up with foul smelling clothes?

Do you store your warm weather clothes away during Autumn?  If so, this can help!

Clothes with a musty smell can usually be taken care of by using one of these common household products.

  • Baking soda
  • White vinegar
  • Borax

Just fill your washing machine with clothes, hot water and your normal detergent. Once full, pour a cup of your selected product in and agitate to ensure it’s mixed properly. You can use a mixture of vinegar and baking soda, a half cup each.

For best results dry the clothes outside. A sunny breezy day is best. A place that gets both wind and sun is ideal.

Keep in mind, if your clothes smell musty, it’s because of mold. Our team at SERVPRO of Stoneham/Wakefield is here to help!
