The washing machine can also accumulate an unpleasant odor and even develop mold, despite the use of washing powder.

Unfortunately, not all dirt can be washed out of the drum and sometimes you have to resort to additional means.

Before or after washing, it is recommended to check the rubber seal, detergent container, drain hose and filter, and detergent supply hose.

It is better to wash these parts at least occasionally.

You can use 4 folk remedies.

  1. Vitriol solution. Apply the product to the surface and leave for 24 hours. Then wash off the solution with dishwashing detergent.
  2. Citric acid. It will remove mold in the drum. It should be poured into the powder container and run in the normal mode at maximum temperature.
  3. Whiteness. Pour 1 liter of the product into an empty drum and start washing. It is better to choose the longest mode.
