I try not to use that on our clothes but I could care less what we put on the dishtowels. <br /><br />The UV thing stopped working when we moved here. Mr F is too frustrated to actually try and figure out how to get it fixed so we're back to detergent.Mrs Furioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18082932653215907248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-31014255215024452952009-08-20T10:06:10.463-04:002009-08-20T10:06:10.463-04:00I gotta agree with P/F -- I may name my firstborn ...I gotta agree with P/F -- I may name my firstborn Oxyclean.

I fill the little measuring cup that comes w/ it 1/4 of the way and put it in the bottom of my washer before loading. I often leave my laundry in the washer all day after it's clean, and still NO funky odor (even in summer!). <br /><br />And dishcloths - soak in a bucket of water/ Oxyclean overnight - they will not smell. Also safe for colors. I could write a book on the things Oxyclean has saved in this house (antique china, linens).<br /><br />Probably not the most environmentally perfect product, but my mom's English so she passed on the scrub and sanitize gene big time - I'm convinced it works better/more gently than bleach. <br /><br />Also, maybe your UV washer thing needs servicing.P/Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07011597977129472269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-38569247974808362432009-08-20T02:04:25.360-04:002009-08-20T02:04:25.360-04:00Quarter cup of WHITE vinegar, has to be white, in ...Quarter cup of WHITE vinegar, has to be white, in with the detergent...gets rid of any funk and not dangerous to your fabrics....{{fingers crossed}} for you.Kikihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03206946600984174783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-29876530036777910102009-08-19T23:40:54.608-04:002009-08-19T23:40:54.608-04:00What do you mean? there is nothing ABSOLUTELY NOTH...What do you mean? there is nothing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING unsanitary about that cottage!

I have bleached them. I've ...Let me tell you... I have bleached them. I've even run an empty washer with bleach to make sure it wasn't the washer. There are a couple colored ones (and they do smell the worst... always have... even new which should have been a tip off) that I can't bleach.<br /><br />Now the funny thing is up at the cottage the dish cloths smell HORRIBLE. Like dead dog. I always assumed it was part of a family weirdness and certain people's inability (in fact refusal) to realize they were potentially killing us all with bacteria. So while I was there I took it upon myself and washed them ALL the time. Like every day. And they ALWAYS smelled terrible once they got wet. Then I realized it was just the curse of the dishcloth. <br /><br />Someone give us the magic answer!!Mrs Furioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18082932653215907248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970661341243634764.post-69412324401599770902009-08-19T21:56:03.250-04:002009-08-19T21:56:03.250-04:00I think the bleach (sometimes) works, but Mrs F is...I think the bleach (sometimes) works, but Mrs F is anti-bleach.
