Why put dishwasher tablets in your washing machine

According to those who have tried it, the effect can be overwhelming.

From the outside, the machine almost always looks clean: a white body, a shining drum. The only thing that requires regular cleaning is glass in the door and gum-seals, where fibers of fabrics, dirt settle, and then mold forms. Or not the only one?

Experts recommend cleaning the inside of the machine too. Someone advises running an idle wash cycle, pouring vinegar inside, someone else has other recipes, but moms in the Mums Who Clean And Cook group on Facebook found a different recipe – easier, faster and more effective. 

One of the group members shared her secret: it turns out that she threw a dishwasher tablet into the machine and turned on the wash cycle. The water inside became cloudy after a minute, and after five it looked like liquid mud.

Of course, nothing of the kind was visible from the outside. All this filth has accumulated inside, in the hoses of the machine. It is not for nothing that it is considered one of the dirtiest objects in the house – it turns out that without proper cleaning, dirt, and with it, clouds of bacteria again and again settle on the laundry.

“I put two tablets straight into the drum and started the wash at the highest temperature. She sat and looked at the typewriter, like a cat. The water is just disgusting color ”, – write in the comments to the life hack. 

By the way, this is not the only magic that dishwasher tablets are capable of. The hostesses shared their experience of how easily and simply they wipe the oven glass, which turns from brown to crystal clear before our eyes, and also clean metal surfaces – from oven grates to sinks. 

In addition, fans of the famous cleaning guru Mrs. Hinch claim that dishwasher tablets wash white things better than any powder and bleach. Would you take the risk?
