See vinegar and its deodorizing and stain-removing properties. To make the most of it, prepare a bucket with cold water, dilute the white vinegar and mix. Soak your sweaty clothes for 30 minutes     and you’re done. Just throw them in the washing machine, then rinse and dry.

When we mention vinegar, it would be difficult not to mention the stain-removing power of baking soda. To use this must-have all-purpose product, add a cup of homemade laundry detergent to your laundry load, then wash in cold water.

The other natural ingredient that you should not miss is none other than lemon. Prepare some lemon juice to pour directly on your clothes to     break down the bacteria responsible for bad odors.

If the smell persists, soak your clothes with two cups of baking soda instead of just one. Then leave the clothes   in the pool for a whole day or up to 24 hours.

Please note that it is best to follow the information on your clothing labels to avoid mistakes.

More tips and tricks to get rid of sweat smell in clothes

Tip #1

Smelly clothes can often be caused by a problem with your washing machine. This can be caused by dirt or a buildup of laundry detergent, body oils, and other residue. This creates a very favorable environment for mold to form. Therefore, a thorough cleaning of the machine is necessary.

As you can see, with so much going on in our washing machine, it can quickly happen that clothes smell unpleasant. Therefore, it is best to act immediately and wash your clothes immediately after sweating. To prevent moisture from promoting the growth of bacteria, be sure     to pre-dry your clothes in the open air by turning them inside out.

Tip #2

Our dead skin cells are responsible for creating most of the bacteria that cause bad smells. First reflex: turn the clothes inside out so that the cleaning products     can act more directly on the dirtiest side of the clothes    . You will also find that a cotton fabric retains less odors than a polyester fabric or even synthetic fabrics.

Tip #3

If you reduce the amount of laundry by half, the clothes will wash well because water can penetrate the fibers more easily. Also, if you don’t want to waste your cleaning effort, avoid using fabric softener, as it leaves a layer on clothes that traps bacteria and odors. To prevent residue from staining your clothes, choose baking soda or vinegar,     which act as natural softeners.

Tip #4

Dry your clothes outdoors instead of in the dryer. Although the latter is very practical, air drying is not only ecological and economical,     but also eliminates odors and microbes thanks to UV rays. Furthermore, it avoids some washing mistakes that can significantly increase the drying time of your clothes.

However, make sure your clothes   are completely free of sweat odors before drying. If they still smell bad, treat them again and wash them again
