dump a cup of baking soda and a cup of white wine vinegar, wash again, they’ll be fine.

Vinegar and baking soda will cancel each other out. I would just use regular white distilled vinegar, don’t need to use the fancy stuff on it.

they react, they don’t equalize, and the results do a fine job of cleaning / removing smells. look, I’m not going to try to convince you your understanding of chemistry is incorrect, but try it before you knock it.

I see this often. Does this work better than just washing again with tablets? Or even just a water wash?

washing anything that got moldy (like cloth napkins from the kitchen that sat in the hamper) / funky - I use a solid tablet detergent (blue land plastic free) and a baking soda / vinegar. works great.

Brah you shouldn’t be using tide pods regardless. They’re no good for your wallet or the environment.

How so? I guess they are more expensive but I can afford like $2 per pack for the convenience of just throwing them in. Am I doing it wrong? Serious question

I don’t use them myself but sort of get why people use dishwasher tablets, but laundry pods/tabs make zero sense to me. Not all loads are the same size.

Shit, not quite as bad but this post reminded me I have clothes sitting in the dryer I wanted to hang up about 2 hours ago.

I once went on a 2-week vacation and forgot to take out the very full and very moist trash out of my nice and warm kitchen.

It was… thriving, when I returned. Hard to describe how disgusting it was. I actually threw up while cleaning it out.

Although I often don’t pay attention to my personal hygiene, I am very concerned about whether the trash can is full.

I once forgot a pear in my pantry when I left town for 2 months.

When I came back it was a stem in a puddle of black liquid.

Do what I do- leave them in the dryer until you need to use the dryer for something else. Fuck the man!

Dump a cup of white vinegar into the wash, let them soak. Mildew will be gone. Add an extra rinse if it smells of vinegar.
