15 Things You Should NEVER Do With Your Laundry
ChatGPT a dit :
Absolutely! Here’s a practical and informative list of 15 Things You Should NEVER Do With Your Laundry — mistakes that can ruin your clothes, your machine, or even your energy bill.
🧺 15 Things You Should NEVER Do With Your Laundry
1. Don’t Overload the Washing Machine
Overloading prevents proper cleaning and can damage your machine over time. Clothes need space to move.
2. Never Mix Whites with Colors
Washing whites with colors can lead to dye transfer, leaving your white clothes looking dull or pink-tinted.
3. Don’t Use Too Much Detergent
More soap doesn’t mean cleaner clothes. Excess detergent can leave residue and damage fabrics.
4. Don’t Leave Wet Clothes Sitting
Leaving wet laundry in the washer causes mildew and musty smells. Transfer to the dryer or line dry ASAP.
5. Never Skip Sorting
Always separate by fabric type, color, and soil level. It keeps clothes lasting longer and prevents damage.
6. Don’t Ignore the Labels
Care labels exist for a reason. Read them before washing or drying to avoid shrinking, fading, or stretching.
7. Don’t Use Hot Water on Everything
Hot water can shrink or fade delicate or colored fabrics. Use cold water for most loads unless sanitizing is needed.
8. Don’t Forget to Clean the Lint Trap
A full lint trap reduces dryer efficiency and increases fire risk. Clean it after every load.
9. Don’t Wash Towels with Clothes
Towels produce lint and absorb water differently. Wash them separately for best results.
10. Never Rub Stains Aggressively
Scrubbing can damage fabric and set the stain. Blot gently and use proper stain removal methods.
11. Don’t Leave Zippers or Hooks Unfastened
Open zippers and bra hooks can snag or tear other clothes. Fasten them before washing.
12. Don’t Use Bleach on Everything
Bleach weakens fabric fibers and can cause yellowing. Use sparingly and only when necessary.
13. Don’t Forget to Empty Pockets
Coins, pens, tissues, or gum can ruin an entire load — and damage your washer or dryer.
14. Don’t Dry Everything on High Heat
High heat can shrink or ruin delicate fabrics. Use low or air-dry settings for synthetics and delicates.
15. Never Ignore the Washer or Dryer’s Maintenance
Regularly clean your washer drum, gasket, and detergent drawer. Also, check dryer vents for lint buildup.
🧼 Bonus Tip:
Avoid fabric softener on towels, activewear, and microfiber — it coats fibers and reduces absorbency or performance.
