Think again! Sometimes it happens that the latter gives off strong unpleasant odors. Some even compare them to a sewer smell. Find out how to get rid of those stubborn bad smells emanating from your washing machine.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you use a jasmine, mint, lemon, or lavender scented detergent, your washing machine can sometimes give off bad odors. These annoying odors can spread throughout the room, regardless of whether your machine is placed in the laundry room or bathroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"comment-eliminer-les-mauvaises-odeurs-de-votre-machine-a-laver\">How to get rid of bad smells from the washing machine?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bad smell that you sometimes get when opening the washing machine is due to the build-up of detergent and fabric softener residues in the appliance and&nbsp;the&nbsp;formation of limescale in the pipes. There are simple, quick and effective grandma&#8217;s tricks to get rid of those stubborn smells.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Clean the drum of your washing machine<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The drum of the washing machine can turn into a real nest of molds. The build-up of detergent and limescale promotes the proliferation of bacteria, which causes the appearance of a bad smell. To avoid this, it is recommended to clean it at least once a month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To do this, prepare a solution of water and white vinegar. Fill a spray bottle with said solution and spray it into the drum of your washing machine. Then dip a microfiber cloth into this solution before passing it through the drum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">L\u2019aceto bianco rimuove le tracce di calcare e neutralizza i cattivi odori dalla lavatrice.&nbsp;Questa operazione va ripetuta almeno una volta al mese per disinfettare la lavatrice e assorbire gli odori persistenti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Clean the gasket of your washing machine<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.santeplusmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/joint-machine-a-laver.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-338761\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The seal of your washing machine can also be a source of bad odors emanating from it. The formation of mould and the accumulation of detergent residues on washes, combined with humidity, promote the appearance of unpleasant odours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To clean it, you will need to mix a few tablespoons of baking soda with&nbsp;a&nbsp;little water in a container until it forms a paste. Spread it inside the gasket of your washing machine. Take an old toothbrush and use it to scrub the joint. Rinse everything off, then scrub with a sponge soaked in white vinegar or lemon juice. Wipe with another damp cloth then wipe dry with a microfiber cloth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can add a few drops of eucalyptus, thyme, or vanilla essential oil to mask the smell of vinegar if it bothers you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although the ingredients used are natural and eco-friendly, care must be taken to protect your hands when handling. If your skin is sensitive, remember to put on gloves before you start cleaning your joint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additionally, it is important to clean and dry the seal of your washing machine after each wash to get rid of soap residue and standing water. This will prevent mold from forming and bad odors from appearing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The filter in your washing machine can also be a source of bad odors<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You may have noticed this when you removed the filter from the washer. The latter tends to get dirty quickly and produce bad odors. To remove them, remember to clean the filter. To do this, you must first unplug the machine, remove the filter, and let the water drain into a basin. Be sure to drain all the water from the machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As for the filter, it should be cleaned by soaking it for a few hours in a mixture of water and white vinegar so that it is as good as new. This mixture is very effective and less abrasive than bleach. It is necessary to renew the operation at least every three months to ensure optimal maintenance of the filter and to ward off bad odors throughout the house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By regularly cleaning the various components of your washing machine&nbsp;, you will extend its life and eliminate bad and persistent odors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You may think that by running wash cycles, your washing machine must smell clean.
