Rewash & remove from machine promptly. A fabric softtner or a dryer sheet would help too. If the clothes are white though then bleach would be best. If color I suggest using Clorox for Colors, but if it is only the smell your concerned about a simple rewash ought to work. Did you leave the clothesin the washer & forget to transfer to the dryer? I've done that & a rewash works fine. Now if its been multiple days that the clothes were wet/damp then I'd REALLY suggest some type of Clorox. Good luck.

Adding a cup of ammonia along with detergent in the wash cycle and a cup of white vinegar in the rinse cycle is usually very effective for removing odors from clothing.

Rewash clothes and remove from washer promptly. Dry in dryer with scented dryer sheets. Remove and fold.
Some other good answers above too.

I have been told that a capful of ammonia in your laundry will help rid the annoying smell, plus remove any grease stains.

Bleach is the only chemical known to kill mold, but you cant use on colors and it destroys some fabrics.
