                Does not have time to read through all 49 pages so am posting it here.


                Some of my DD's clothes have little sports of black colour which I suspect is because her cc clothes are damp (sweaty) and we don't wash them immediately (only wash when there is full load).

                Is there any solution for this?

                Try vinegar and/or soaking power in the final rinse? Can try googling on the uses of vinegar. I use it to get rid of mould and prevent mould from growing on my dish-drying racks.

                How you use it ? Wipe with vinegar water ?

                  What my sister did was to put the clothes on rack instead of in the laundry bag.

                      So far, I've tried - cut limes and star anise. It helps to lessen but not totally.

                      I'm also looking forward to any tips.
