For Odor Removal
Vinegar neutralizes unpleasant smells, such as mildew. Add 1/2 cup to the rinse cycle for fresh-smelling clothes and towels.
For Preventing Lint and Static
Vinegar can help reduce lint and static cling. Use it as a natural alternative to fabric softeners, which often contain chemicals that coat fabrics.

Tips for Best Results
Use Distilled White Vinegar
Avoid apple cider or other colored vinegars, as they might stain fabrics.

Pair It with Cold Water
Vinegar works well in cold water, which helps protect fabrics and save energy.

Don’t Overdo It
Limit vinegar use to once or twice per month to avoid overexposing your fabrics to acid.

By understanding how to use vinegar properly, you can transform your laundry routine. Brighter whites, fluffier towels, and a healthier approach to fabric care are just a bottle away!
