Why is it important to disinfect my washing machine?

Disinfecting your washing machine is crucial to prevent the growth of bacteria, bad odors, and ensure it functions effectively. During the pandemic, it's especially important as viruses like COVID-19 can survive on surfaces, including your clothes.

Can I use a different disinfection method if I don't have baking soda or vinegar?

While baking soda and vinegar are effective and safe options, you can also use commercial washing machine cleaners or specialized disinfectants recommended by the manufacturer. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's guidelines to avoid damaging your machine.

How often should I perform these cleaning steps?

It's recommended to clean and disinfect your washing machine every 1-2 months for maintenance. However, if you're concerned about virus transmission, consider doing it more frequently, especially if you're washing items potentially exposed to COVID-19, like face masks or clothing from public places.
