Where do I find a mesh zippered bag that can be tossed into the wash and what are they called?

Question

I am looking for a bag that will zipper shut, can be tossed in the washer and dryer and will allow detergent, water and heat to pass through it, so I guess it needs to be some sort of mesh like material. I want to use it to wash my baby's socks. This way I can toss them into this bag and not have to worry about the "sock monster" eating them when I wash clothes. Does anyone know what I am describing, what it's called and/or where I can find one?

Answer 1

I just bought a sweater bag that zips up and is mesh and can be put in washer/dryer..I got mine at Wa-mart for $1.37...

Answer 2

It's called a "Lingerie Bag" and I use them for my kids socks too! They are great. You can get them at Target, Nordstoms, Macy's, WalMart. They are everywhere, just ask for a lingerie bag.

It's about the half the size of a pillow case, usually white mesh with one zippered end. They can go from the washer to the dryer and then you never lose a sock.

The Sesame Street brand of infant socks actually comes with one of the mesh bags, but it's teeny tiny. They sell that brand at Kmart.

Best of luck to you in thwarting The Evil Sock Monster!

I know what it feels like to have no matches for your kids socks. The bag is called a mesh bag and you can find them at Walmart, K-mart, Toys are Us, and any other store that has kids stuff in it. I use a mesh bag for my little ones toys. They also help with organization:>

I think it is just called a mesh laundry bag. Check out the laundry sections at walmart or whereever.

Answer 5

Laundry bags. You find them in the housewares section of any dept store--walmart, target---near the wash baskets and such. Loads of them on sale in sept when the college kids go back to school...

Answer 6

These things are hard to find! Try the lingerie section, and near the laundry detergents. I've always called them lingerie bags.

Answer 7

They are called lingerie bags. Go to a good department store that sells female underwear, they will have them or even a specialist bra shop. If you don't want to do that, get a pillow protector with a zip on it. That's what I use.

Answer 8

A mesh lingerie bag should do it. You can sometimes find them in stores like Target or other large stores with a lingerie department.

You can also find them online
