How to wash underwear in the most healthy way

　　Underwear should be washed and rinsed thoroughly when cleaning

　　Many people think that hand washing is cleaner when washing underwear. In fact, hand washing and machine washing have their own advantages and disadvantages. Hand washing is clean but the detergent used is not easy to rinse; while machine washing detergent is easy to rinse, but the cleaning is not thorough. So whether you wash it by hand or machine, it must be washed thoroughly and rinsed thoroughly.

　　Cleaning underwear requires choosing the right cleaning method

　　Everyone has different cleaning methods for cleaning underwear. Here are a few more practical methods:

　　Detergent cleaning: It can be cleaned thoroughly, but more stubborn stains cannot be completely cleaned.

　　Bleach cleaning: It has a bactericidal effect and can also remove yellow stains, but the chloride in the bleach is highly irritating. Be careful about the residual bleach, which may cause excessive irritation to the private parts. Be careful. Be sure to rinse well.

　　Boil in hot water before washing: This is more recommended. It is recommended to boil underwear in hot water for 15 minutes every time, which can completely sterilize and clean them better.

　　Pay attention to washing underwear separately from other clothes

　　Underwear is in close contact with special physiological parts and has special requirements for hygiene. If washed together with outerwear, it is easy to transfer external pathogenic bacteria and pollution sources to underwear. Socks, in particular, are prone to mold. If they are washed with underwear, the mold will be transmitted to the underwear. Cross-infection can easily occur among members who live together because clothes are mixed in the washing machine.

　　Wash underwear promptly and do not leave them overnight

　　Underwear should be washed promptly. Do not leave underwear overnight, otherwise bacteria can easily breed and make cleaning more difficult. Moreover, the residual odor of underwear can easily attract some flying insects and other insects.

　　It is best to have a special basin or utensil for washing underwear.

　　Since underwear is a relatively close-fitting piece of clothing, there is also a special washbasin or utensil, especially for washing feet or holding other bacteria-laden clothing. This can easily cause bacterial infection.

　　Girls’ underwear, especially those during menstruation, must be washed well

　　Girls during menstrual period tend to stain their underwear with menstrual blood. When it first gets stained, rinse it with cold water and it will probably wash off. However, if the blood stain has dried and hardened, you can use hydrogen peroxide to disinfect wounds and drop it on it, and the blood stain will be effectively decomposed.

　　Cleaned underwear must be fully exposed to the sun or treated at high temperatures

　　Ultraviolet rays are the best natural disinfection system. It is best to let the cleaned underwear bask in the sun. If you really don’t have the opportunity, it is recommended to use high temperature treatment, for example, iron it, dry it in a dryer, or blow it with a hair dryer to prevent it from becoming damp. Special reminder: Underwear is not suitable for hanging in the bathroom.
