How do you get rid of musty mildew smell in bath towels?

Answer 1

Freebreze LAUNDRY, it comes in a dark blue bottle, usually near the laundry stuff. Usually hard to find, since sopme people at the stores don't know what the producct is! Sometime you'll find it by the other frebreeze items, but this should look like laundry detergent, add it to your regular detergent, since this isn't actuallky a soap, but an additive. Gets rid of even a mans sweat smell!!! Soak if you have to!
Only use bleach on whites, otherwise colorsafe bleach, but those are intended to get rid of things other than smell. Use extra fabric softener, even add sheets. One "home remedy" is baking soda, but I'd use the freebreeze!!! Works on my husbands landscaping clothes!
