How to wash underwear clean? It turns out that these washing methods are wrong!

There are many different washing methods, but can they really clean your underwear?

Before we learn how to wash them, let's first look at how dirty underwear is. Many people think that underwear can be dirty because they are worn inside. At most, there will be some secretions on them.

Not really, there are excrement and bacteria on it that you can't imagine. According to statistics, there is an average of 0.1 grams of feces on each pair of underwear, and the number of bacteria and microorganisms in it is tens of thousands!

After reading this, do you still want to change your underwear once a week? It is best to change your underwear every day to avoid wearing it for a long time, which will not only smell bad but also induce inflammation of the private parts.

How should you wash your underwear? The following common washing methods are all wrong.

Wrong method 1: Put it directly into the washing machine without caring about it

Nowadays, many young people are extremely lazy (including me). They would rather avoid hand washing clothes if possible. Moreover, many bloggers’ experiments have shown that washing machines are cleaner than hand washing.

It is true that underwear washed in a clean washing machine will be cleaner, but many household washing machines have not been cleaned for years, and the places inside that you cannot see are really dirty.

If you put your underwear in a washing machine like this, how clean do you think it will be?

Experiments show that

E. coli was detected on the underwear washed in this dirty washing machine. E. coli is a pathogenic bacteria that increases the risk of urinary tract infection and gastroenteritis under certain conditions. And because of different physiological structures, women have a higher risk of urinary tract infection than men.

Therefore, when you cannot guarantee that your washing machine is very clean, you should try to wash it by hand.

Wrong method 2: Washing underwear with hot water

Many people like to do this, thinking that boiling water can kill all bacteria.

It is true, but it will also ruin your underwear. For example, many underwear materials are not resistant to high temperatures. If you work hard at it, such as scalding and boiling it, your underwear will basically be ruined.

If there is some dirt on it, it will denature when exposed to heat, making it more difficult to remove, leaving yellow spots that are difficult to wash off.

Wrong method three: Collect all seven and put them in a basin before washing

This is also a common practice for many people. After all, after a tiring day at work, when you get home you just want to lie on the bed and relax by browsing your phone.

But for close-fitting clothing such as underwear, I advise you to take it off and wash it immediately, because the contents left overnight will turn yellow, smell, and harden, and bacteria may multiply on them in large numbers. When you remember to wash them, it is difficult to clean these dirt that is invisible to the naked eye by simply rubbing them with laundry detergent.

Finally, you still have to pay attention to the way you wash your underwear. After all, if you don’t wash it clean, you might be the one who suffers.
