Soap residue (washing smells )

 >:(  I've put towels through twice in 24 hours but they still smell ........... 'off'.  They are blowing on the line trying to get some fresh air into them  ::) .......... I put a hot wash on without clothing last week and have done laundry since, maybe vinegar on a hot wash ?

Suggestions on a post card please  ???

Joyce:
I could be wrong here, but I'm sure my daughter told me if you soak them in bicarb first, then wash, that's supposed to neutralise any odours.

CLKD:
Maybe run the machine empty on a bicarb wash then?

Yep, that works - I have done it in the past.

You can also buy stuff to clear your washing machine pipes by Dr Beckman.  It works in much the same way as cleaning stuff for your dishwasher.  Think it's about £4 a pack.
