How to Naturally Clean Any Washing Machine? Cleaning your washing machine regularly is important to ensure that it functions efficiently and produces clean clothes.

Materials Needed:

1. White vinegar
2. Baking soda
3. Microfiber cloth or sponge
4. Essential oils (optional, for a pleasant scent)
5. Old toothbrush
6. Hot water

Instructions:

1. Empty the Washing Machine:

   • Make sure the washing machine is empty of clothes.
   • Check and remove any loose items or debris from the drum.
2. Clean the Dispensers:
   • Remove the detergent, fabric softener, and bleach dispensers (if applicable).
   • Soak them in a solution of equal parts hot water and white vinegar.
   • Use an old toothbrush to scrub away any residue.
3. Wipe Down the Drum:
   • Dampen a microfiber cloth or sponge with a mixture of equal parts white vinegar and water.
   • Wipe down the inside of the drum, paying attention to the rubber gasket around the door.
4. Clean the Door and Seals:
   • Mix a solution of one part white vinegar and one part water.
   • Use this solution to clean the door and rubber seals. An old toothbrush can be helpful for getting into crevices.
5. Run a Hot Water Cycle with Vinegar:
   • Pour two cups of white vinegar into the detergent dispenser.
   • Set the washing machine to the hottest water setting.
   • Run a complete wash cycle without any clothes. This helps to disinfect and remove built-up grime.

6. Run a Baking Soda Cycle:

   • Sprinkle one cup of baking soda directly into the drum.
   • Run a second hot water cycle.
   • This helps neutralize odors and break down any remaining residue.

7. Wipe Down Exterior Surfaces:

   • Clean the exterior surfaces of the washing machine, including the control panel, with a damp cloth.
8. Air Out the Drum:
   • Leave the door ajar after cleaning to allow the drum to dry thoroughly and prevent mold growth.
9. Optional: Add Essential Oils:
   • For a pleasant scent, you can add a few drops of your favorite essential oil (such as tea tree oil or lavender) to the vinegar or baking soda during the cleaning process.
10. Regular Maintenance:
    • To prevent future build-up, periodically run a hot water cycle with vinegar and wipe down the drum and seals.
