In the washing machine
One of the problems that occur most when washing clothes in the washing machine is bad smells.

Dry

For example, we can sprinkle the garment with bicarbonate of soda and place it in a bag, shaking it gently. Let it rest for a few hours. The absorbent properties of baking soda will eliminate any unpleasant odors.

It has whitening and cleaning properties , excellent both for eliminating stains but also for restoring white garments to their original whiteness.
As? Very simple: pour a cup of bicarbonate of soda together with the ecological detergent you usually use. The remedy is more effective if inserted when the washing machine has loaded all the water. This way it melts better!
