Ever thought your laundry detergent might be doing more harm than good? You’re not alone! Experts from Whirlpool have revealed that overloading your washing machine with detergent can leave those annoying white or blue stains on your clothes that look like your washing machine is playing a cruel joke on you. And it’s not just about the stains – they can smell bad and feel hard, ruining your favorite outfits. But don’t panic, there’s a hero in your kitchen: plain old vinegar! Yes, that common household ingredient can save your beloved shirts and pants.
How does it work? Experts suggest mixing one cup of vinegar with a quarter cup of water and rubbing this solution into the detergent stain. Let the clothes soak for an hour, then wash as usual. The key is not to overload your washing machine because too much detergent can’t rinse out properly and leaves those pesky marks. This trick has been known by our grandmothers and now confirmed by modern experts.
