wtnhunt Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 City water/chlorine maybe? Never had that kind of problem using any unscented commercial washes. Might try baking soda for a wash, use about half to a full cup for a load depending on the load size. Leave the bedsheets out. If you got a nice sunny day, hang/air dry your clothes outside.

Rhino Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 City water/chlorine maybe? Never had that kind of problem using any unscented commercial washes. Same thing I was thinking. One wash load using unscented laundry detergent works for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RangerClay Posted September 26, 2011 Report Share Posted September 26, 2011 Why are you putting bed sheets in with load???? They must have fabric softener still in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1402731 Posted October 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2011 Was washing bed sheets with hunting soap to clean out washer and drer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hungry hunter Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 What was already said, I wash short cycle with normal scent free soap, then earth dryer sheets. Don't smell anything but dirt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LETMGROW Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 We rinse our washer using hot wash and hot rinse water on the heaviest load settings with nothing in the washer. I use about 3 capfulls of Sno-Seal Sport Wash for the wash. I take the dispenser for fabric softener out and leave it out. This cleans the washer pretty well. I don't use the dryer at all for hunting clothes. ( no good way to clean the dryer ) Lynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
