For those who have it, every week, we use our washing machines to wash our laundry. The washing machine is always busy in some homes ,washing dirty clothes provided there is light. Have you wondered where those dirts go? Do you need to clean your washing machine? Do you think that your machine may be harbouring bacteria? Really then, are clean laundry germs free?
Dirty clothes contain germs. When washed in a washing machine, the germs break off, come out from your laundry into the sides of the machine. If the machine is not being taken care of, the bacteria are given opportunities for growth and then hang around. Before long, when you come washing, they end up in your clothes again, causing your fabric to lose their life span and even have unpleasant smell, despite the soap you used.
HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF
1.Sanitize your washing machine every month with bleach so as to kill germs. Wash or clean with bleach and let it run at least one normal cycle without clothes in it
