Many people notice that with the onset of warm weather, such an item of our everyday wardrobe as socks gets dirty much faster.

Perhaps the pattern is explained by the transition to open shoes, or perhaps it is connected with the fact that in the summer we often wear white socks, on which dirt is especially clearly visible.

Be that as it may, a life hack on how to quickly and easily remove the most difficult stains will certainly be useful to everyone.

And it’s not a washing machine that will help with this, which would be obvious, but a microwave oven.

It turns out that to effectively clean socks, you need to “cook” them in the microwave.

All that remains is to rinse the socks in clean water – housewives who use this washing technique assure that the listed actions are enough to make the socks clean again.
