remove musty smells

The musty smell in clothes may be due to different reasons, sometimes it is simply a thick garment that has not dried well at all, it can be a piece that we've forgotten wet in a corner, or simply that the clothes have been in the washing machine longer than due.
 
Sometimes when washing the garment again that smell doesn't go away, if is your case, try these tricks:

- If you forgot clothes in the washer and now you have musty smell in them, you just have to go back washing programming by adding a cup of baking soda in the detergent compartment.

- If the towels have not dryed well and smell musty, you have to wash them again in the washer with two cups of white vinegar , then tend them and make sure they get completely dry (in addition to removing the smell they will be softer by the descaling effect of vinegar)

- If you have clothes with a very strong odor, put them in the washer and replace detergent by a glass of apple cider vinegar . If you want to increase the effectiveness, you can also add half a cup of lemon juice and a cup of baking soda .

By now, it has been enough for me to wash clothes with a glass of apple cider vinegar to remove smells, and don't worry, the laundry will not smell like a salad ;)
