More often than not, we find ourselves facing large crowds and cramped spaces. Being in this kind of environment subjects us to different bacteria and viruses which can cling to our bodies without us knowing. This can put our family’s health at risk. Since our clothes are exposed as much as we are, it is vital that we take measures to make sure that no bacteria or virus can spread in our home through our clothes. Here are a few tips to keep in mind on how to safely do your laundry:

Avoid shaking

A common misconception is that dusting off clothes helps “remove” the harmful particles. However, this may be counterintuitive when you think about how to safely do your laundry. Dusting off clothes might actually expose you even more to harmful particles that may have been lingering on your clothes. You could unknowingly inhale these since they just float into the air. So the best thing to do is to bundle your laundry and wash them immediately.

Separate. Separate. Separate.

Separating clothes is not limited to doing it by color and type anymore. One of the steps to consider on how to safely do your laundry is by setting aside your outside clothes. Upon coming home, place your outside clothes in a separate laundry basket. This will help lower the chance of contaminating your other clothes before laundry day comes.

Hot Wash

Another extra step on how to safely do your laundry is to kill the bacteria or virus that may have clung to your clothes through a hot wash. It’s simple; all you need to do is to choose the Hot Wash cycle on your washing machine. The high temperature allows the washer to kill off bacteria and viruses. With this in mind, it also important to consider the type of washing machine you have at home to make sure that you can properly wash and disinfect your clothes.

So you can now keep your family safe with Whirlpool’s Bloomwash 360 Fully Automatic Washing Machine. It is designed to not only freshen up but also sanitize your laundry.
