Steps

  1. Kill the mold by soaking the clothes overnight in a solution such as ONE of the following:
    • One cup ammonia to one gallon warm water; or
    • One cup of white vinegar to one gallon warm water; or
    • One cup of baking soda to one gallon warm water
  2. Soak overnight.
  3. Wash normally with regular detergent and hang to dry on a sunny day.

Tips

  • Products such as Tide w/Febreze or Oxyclean may do the trick for you.
  • There is a product called purewasher that is only sold on the internet that will remove odor from your machine and your clothing. They even have a guarantee. It works very well.
  • You can use a dryer sheet in the clothes dryer, in the hopes that the heat will release the fragrance, which will then get into the clothes. However, this will only help to cover the smell and will probably not eliminate your problem.

Warnings

  • If the above will not work, you might try soaking overnight in a solution of bleach. Just be careful not to mix the bleach with ammonia, as this mixture will result in a noxious gas which will harm those who breathe it.
