How to clean your washing machine and avoid unpleasant odors

Your washing machine is an important part of your daily routine, but have you ever thought about how much dirt, bacteria and limescale can accumulate over time? If you experience a bad smell from your washing machine, or if it does not wash clothes as clean as before, it may be time for a thorough cleaning. In this guide, you will learn how to effectively clean your washing machine and keep it free of odors and bacteria with gentle and environmentally friendly means.

Why should you clean your washing machine?

Even though a washing machine constantly uses water and detergents, residues of detergent, limescale and dirt can still build up in the machine. This creates an environment where bacteria and mold can thrive, which can lead to bad odors and ineffective washing.

How to clean your washing machine effectively

  1. Use a probiotic detergent
    A probiotic detergent, such as Simple Goods detergent contains good bacteria that actively break down dirt and prevent the build-up of harmful bacteria in the machine. By choosing a probiotic detergent, you ensure that the washing machine is kept clean and free of bad odours, while at the same time your clothes are clean and fresh.

  2. Add a Laundry Tonic for extra freshness
    Simple Goods Laundry Tonic is a natural way to add extra freshness to your washing machine. It is made from essential oils that both smell great and have antibacterial properties. By adding a few drops of Laundry Tonic to your wash, you can remove all bad smells and leave the machine fresh and clean.

  3. Run an empty sink with vinegar and baking soda
    To remove limescale and residues from detergent, you can run an empty wash at high temperature with vinegar and baking soda. This will loosen accumulated dirt and limescale, so that your washing machine works optimally again.

  4. Clean the filter regularly
    The machine's filter can collect lint, small objects and dirt that can block effective cleaning. Remember to clean the filter regularly to avoid blockages and bad smells.

  5. Wipe the rubber strip
    The rubber strip around the opening of the washing machine is one of the places where mold and bacteria can easily collect. Use a damp cloth and a mild detergent to wipe it after each wash.

Benefits of probiotic cleaning

  • Removes all odors and bacteria naturally
    Probiotic detergents , like Simple Goods , work naturally to remove odors and bacteria from your washing machine without the use of harsh chemicals. The good bacteria break down organic material, so the machine is kept clean and odor-free.

  • Environmentally friendly alternative
    Probiotic detergent is not only good for your washing machine, but also for the environment. It contains no harmful chemicals that can contaminate the aquatic environment and is gentle on the skin.

  • Extend the life of the machine
    By keeping your washing machine free of limescale and accumulated dirt, you can extend its life and ensure that it washes optimally for many years to come.
