Vinegar, often used in cooking, can also be a powerful cleaning agent for your laundry. Here are some ways to use vinegar to freshen and brighten your clothes:

Laundry Vinegar

Remove odors:

Vinegar can help eliminate unpleasant odors from your laundry, such as musty smells or cigarette smoke. Add 1 cup of white vinegar to the rinse cycle of your washing machine.


Soften fabrics:

If you struggle with stiff fabrics, vinegar can help soften them. Add 1/2 cup of vinegar to the rinse cycle of your washing machine.


Whiten whites:

Vinegar can help brighten whites and remove stains. Add 1/2 cup of vinegar to the wash cycle with your white laundry.


Remove mildew:

Vinegar is an effective mildew remover. Soak mildew-stained items in a solution of 1 part vinegar to 2 parts water for 30 minutes before washing.


Clean your washing machine:

To clean your washing machine, run a hot water cycle with 1 cup of vinegar. This will help to remove any residue or buildup inside the machine.
