You will probably be at least surprised when you learn about the existence of a life hack with rice in the washing machine.

At the same time, many housewives claim that this trick helps them solve two problems at once.

What exactly? Firstly, rice eliminates the unpleasant smell that sometimes appears in the washing machine – especially when its door is constantly closed.

Secondly, the cereal successfully fights mold – this scourge, again, attacks household appliances due to the fact that moisture and residues of detergents accumulate inside.

Of course, pouring rice directly into the drum of a washing machine is an unwise, if not dangerous, idea.

Such an act will certainly lead to the breakdown of your faithful assistant.

Instead, take care to make a bag from natural fabric, fill it with rice cereal and tie it securely so that it will not come undone.

This is the form in which rice should be sent into the washing machine to forget about mold and musty smell.
