Wash with a million/4 cup vinegar on your wash.

Dry them in the present day after the wash load is performed. clothing have a bent to get musty in the washer promptly in the time of the summer season. in case you have the alternative, line dry. making use of better dryer sheets and such purely attempt and mask the scent of ought to and as quickly as that wears off, they are going to scent musty returned, so do no longer attempt conceal scenting, carry on with the above.

Does your water smell? I have a well and at certaint times of the year, the water smells awful. I have a filtration system that helps, but at times, it is still noticeable. I also agree with the others that you must make sure that the towels are dry before folding and then stored in a dry place with air movement. Good luck!

Don't leave the towels dry on top of each other, spread them out to dry. Also, use Downy fabric softener in the washer and a dryer sheet in the dryer. if that doesn't work, get a new apartment because you probably have mold problems.

Maybe it's your water. Do you hang up the towels to dry after you use them? If they are thrown on the floor in a pile that may be the problem.

Use a new towl every time you take a shower, don't just keep re-using them. Also, you can try washing them and then putting a little baby powder on them so that they stay nice. It also doesn't matter if the baby powder gets on you while you are drying yourself. It just makes you smell nicer.

Had the same problem. Try storing your towels in a different place. I had mine under the bathroom sink, I guess it is too enclosed there.

Wash your towels with one cup of white vinegar. This should help.

Are you leaving them wet sitting in a pile of laundry for a few days? If so it's mildew. Either lay them flat, hang them, or get them in the washer as soon as possible after using them.
