🧺 Clean Your Washing Machine 🧺
If your washer has ever greeted you with a funky smell… you’re not alone. Front-loaders especially love to trap moisture, creating a cozy little clubhouse for mold and mildew. Not exactly the fresh-laundry vibe we’re going for. 😅
Here’s a big truth with dōTERRA laundry products: less is more. Too much On Guard® Laundry Soap can lead to soap scum buildup, which actually makes odors worse.
✨ The Fix:
A quick weekly wipe-down plus a monthly (or occasional) deep clean keeps your machine fresh, happy, and working the way it should.
🌿 Weekly Wipe-Down (5 minutes, tops)
Use this once a week after finishing laundry.
You’ll need:
-
¾ cup white vinegar
-
10 drops Tea Tree (Melaleuca)
-
5 drops Grapefruit
How to:
-
Add everything to an 8-oz glass spray bottle and shake well
-
Spray the rubber seal, drum, and door
-
Wipe thoroughly with a soft cloth
-
Remove soap tray, spray and wipe, then replace
-
Let air dry before your next load
(Top-loaders: wipe the drum and exterior the same way.)
🫧 Deep Clean (a few times a year)
Important science moment: baking soda + vinegar cancel each other out. Bubbles look fun, but cleaning power disappears. So this method works in two separate phases—and it’s magic.
You’ll need:
-
½ tsp natural dish soap
-
4 Tbsp washing soda
-
1 cup white vinegar
-
20 drops Tea Tree
Phase One:
-
Remove soap tray and soak in hot water + dish soap
-
Scrub with a toothbrush, rinse, replace
-
Add washing soda to the drum
-
Run hottest cycle or “tub clean”
Phase Two:
-
Add vinegar + essential oils to liquid dispenser
-
Run hottest cycle or “tub clean” again
-
Wipe seal, drum, and door
-
Let fully dry
-
Clean bottom filter if your machine has one
(Top-loaders: add washing soda directly to hot water in the drum; pour vinegar straight into the drum for phase two.)
A clean washer = cleaner clothes, better-smelling laundry, and fewer mystery odors. Small maintenance, big payoff. ✨
🧺 When’s the last time your washing machine got a deep clean?
