Let’s see below what is needed to eliminate the number one enemy of our washing machine:
- Citric acid and lemon.
Lemon is a precious ally because it contains citric acid. In addition to this, lemon is perfect for giving a delicate scent to the washing machine. At the same time, it is essential to disinfect it properly. We can use this citrus fruit by filtering its juice in a glass. Then you will only have to put it in the washing machine and then start an empty wash.
If we prefer to use a packet of citric acid, we can pour 150 grams of it into a litre of water inside the basket. Then we just need to start an empty wash at the temperature suggested on the packet.
- salt
In addition to citric acid and lemon, a secret ingredient to use is salt. In fact, if we have a medium-sized washing machine, we can put in two glasses of coarse salt. Then, simply dissolve the salt during a high-temperature vacuum wash. This way the washing machine will be clean and disinfected.
- Baking soda
All that remains is to understand how to use baking soda. In this case, it is not necessary to act during an empty wash. In fact, we can start a high-temperature wash after introducing a measuring spoon of baking soda into the drum.
Warning: Baking soda is also useful for removing tough stains from our clothes.
Let’s put these tips into practice.
