White vinegar and its benefits

1. White vinegar in the washing machine

Believe it or not, white vinegar and a clean cloth are great allies for your washing machine. Use this combination to clean the plastic edges of your washing machine. This will eliminate all unpleasant odors, as well as dirt and any traces of mold.

Another way to enjoy its benefits is to pour half a bottle of the product into the dishwasher and run it on the highest cycle. This way you will disinfect the machine and even get rid of all the unpleasant odors that are present in it.

2. In baby clothes

We know that children's skin is extremely sensitive and therefore it is common for them to have an adverse reaction to perfume. To protect your baby's delicate skin, add a cup of white vinegar to the fabric softener compartment of your washing machine when your washing machine is handling a large amount of baby clothes.

If you have a lot of stains on your clothes, you can also soak them in a bucket with equal parts warm water and vinegar and a teaspoon of strong baking soda. Vinegar is also great for removing urine odor.

Other clothes that should be washed with white vinegar

3. In blankets and pants

Although it may not seem like it, white vinegar is an ideal softener for all types of fabrics! For example: you know those new jeans that are still a little stiff? As soon as possible, wash them in the washing machine and use vinegar as a fabric softener.

You will find that your jeans will be much more comfortable to wear! The same goes for blankets, which will also become softer and more comfortable if you add a little white vinegar to the washing machine when washing.

4. In other clothes

Do you know the most used clothes that accumulate unpleasant odors like sweat, urine or musty smells? They won't smell if you add vinegar to the wash.

Wash bras, lace panties and delicate socks as usual and place in the washing machine a mixture of a little water, neutral detergent and two teaspoons of white vinegar. The vinegar will help remove any unpleasant odors and will also ensure that no soap residue remains on the fabric.
