john doe Posted July 22, 2007 Report Posted July 22, 2007 Yes, I do try, most of the time. Okay, some of the time. But once in a while is better than nothing, right? Quote

Palerider Posted July 22, 2007 Report Posted July 22, 2007 When we were first married we took turns. 2 silk blouses and a wool sweater later, I was banned from laundry. She claims it was always her stuff that got ruined, I just never mentioned the stuff of mine that died at my hands. I have not been totally banned from doing laundry, but there are restrictions on what I can do and can't do. Quote

Annabelli Posted July 29, 2007 Report Posted July 29, 2007 My friend's eight year old came home from an overnight trip with a very stinky bag of clothing. At first she thought it was camp fire smoke and thought nothing of it. But the stink was sickening and after she pulled all the clothing out, she noticed a used dirty nicotin patch stuck to the bottom of the bag. She threw the bag away and washed the clothes with laundry detergent/color plus bleach but they still stink. She dried them with dryer sheets and you can readily smell the odor. I gave her a full box of baking soda for the wash and she added a cup of white vinegar to the rinse. And then dried them again. Their hanging on the back porch because they still stink! Is there anything else to get rid of the odor? Quote
Iggy Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 Their hanging on the back porch because they still stink! Is there anything else to get rid of the odor?I have used those nicotene patches (that is how I quit smoking) and they do not smell, so it is probably something else that is stinking up the clothes. In any event, put them all back in the machine, add the normal amount of detergent then 1/4 C of Pine Sol. That gets out skunk spray - so it will get out what ever is making the clothes smell. Quote
