Washing doesn't seem to totally get out the smell.

These are items that can't go in the dryer.

Put some baking soda on the arm pits of the out fit and let sit far a few minutes before washing ,wash with the baking soda . I know a few people who throw a cup in the washer to help take out the smell, especially in the summer .

You just need to use a different kind of deteregent. Try Gain, there is a fragrance on the market and it will get the smell out. Also, make sure your waher is on the right level and water temp. Use a fabric sofener Gain has started making those too. Also take your clothes straight out of the washer when it finishes, don't let them stay in after the washer cuts off. This should make your clothes smell fresh and clean.

I have the same problem!! No matter how many times I wash and use stain-remover, the smell lingers... I have a book that recommends the following:
"Treat with ammonia/water mixture, rinse, follow up with vinegar/water mixture, dry, use oil solvent if needed." [How to Clean Practically Anything, Third Edition, pg 219]
Good luck!

positioned some baking soda in wash water (0.5 to three/4 cup) or use ammonia or use borax. I do all of it the time reason I sweat like a pig at the same time as i bypass to the health center and merely have a tendency to sweat plenty. Detergent on my own would not decrease it for me at the same time as attempting to eliminate persipiration odors. It would not for countless human beings

the washing machine you are using may not be working...
are you using detergents to wash your clothes? also, use fabric softner sheets when you dry your clothes. make sure your clothes are thoroughly dried in the drier... if it's damp, it could cause mildew smell.

Spray an odourless insecticide on the clothes, then leave it for a few minutes and clean it the regular way.
